Design
ELEGANCE EMBODIED
The Bentley powerline flows smoothly from the front wheels and back to the haunch – while the roofline follows above it. When the roof folds down it is stowed seamlessly, preserving the car’s sleek silhouette.
A bright chrome front grille and lower bumper grilles add a sparkling sense of style to the front of the car, while polished chrome wing vents and badging complete an exquisite picture.
Exclusive Azure wheels are fitted as standard, lending the car incredible presence. It can also be commissioned with your choice of optional wheels from the Continental GTC range, at sizes ranging from 21” upwards.
A SPACE TO ENJOY
The cabin is deceptively spacious for a two-door convertible, offering enough room for four adults to sit in comfort. With the four-layer roof closed, the insulation is so effective that it feels like travelling in a hard-top coupé.
The connection between exterior and interior design is everything in a convertible – and not just when the roof is open. That’s why the sleek, flowing lines of the exterior are reflected in the design of the cabin.
From the treadplates to the Azure emblems on the fascia and the seats, the car includes handcrafted details that identify it as an Azure – a car with comfort and wellbeing at its heart.
DISTINCTIVE DETAILING
The car features luxurious details such as contrast stitching and sustainable wool upper trim, jewel oil and filler caps, deep pile overmats, sports pedals and even an optional heated, duo-tone steering wheel.
Performance
The twin-turbocharged 4.0 litre V8 petrol engine delivers truly breathtaking performance. Capable of producing 542 bhp, it can take you from zero to 60 mph in just 4.0 seconds (0-100 km/h in 4.1 seconds). And if the weather changes while you’ve got the roof down, there’s no need to stop. It can be raised or lowered electrically at speeds of up to 30 mph (50 km/h).
Four driving modes allow you to choose between the thrilling experience of Sport or the more relaxed Comfort setting. Bentley mode offers a balance between the two and Custom allows you to configure your own settings, effectively creating a driving mode of your own. Adaptive, three-chamber air suspension guarantees a refined ride at all times, while the Bentley Dynamic Ride anti-roll system keeps the cabin level through corners, without compromising on cruising comfort.
Technology
The Continental GTC Azure includes a raft of wellbeing-focused technology. A Pirelli Noise Cancellation System keeps the cabin quiet when the roof is closed, while the air ioniser and mood lighting come together to maintain the perfect ambience.
With the Front Seat Comfort Specification installed as standard, you can enjoy heating, ventilation and massage functionality, plus comfort headrests and 22-way electrical adjustment, including electrically adjustable bolsters.
STAY WARM IN WINTER
With a heated steering wheel and neck warmers installed discreetly in the seats, to supplement their heating functions, you can enjoy driving with the top down in the winter months, untroubled by the cold outside the car.
The Touring Specification includes driver assistance features such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Assist and a Head-Up Display, while the City Specification adds useful systems including a Top View Camera, Park Assist and Traffic Sign Recognition.

Personalisation
The standard specification of the Continental GTC Azure is unlike that of any rival car. But it is just the beginning. There are sixteen exterior paints available as standard. With the optional extended range and Mulliner Paints, that figure rises to more than 80.
Inside, you can choose from Bentley’s entire range of hide colours and two-tone colour splits, then add contrast stitching, piping or even hand cross-stitching – wherever your taste takes you. The full range of veneers is available, including technical finishes and contemporary open-pore woods. Traditional high-gloss options can be elevated further with the addition of gleaming metal inlays.
You can choose from an enormous range of accessories and optional equipment, including three sound systems: Bentley Signature Audio, the Bang & Olufsen for Bentley system and, for true audiophile sound, the 20-channel Naim for Bentley. For the ultimate in personalisation, talk to your dealer about enlisting Mulliner, Bentley’s personal commissioning division, to design and create bespoke features. When you choose the Continental GTC Azure, the only limit is your imagination.
