Bentley is set to cause a stir with the introduction of its new Continental GTC 6.0 litre W12.
The unique vehicle is considerably more contemporary than the original GTC, with the 20-inch alloy wheels an example of Bentley's slight change of direction.
The interior of the vehicle has soft-touch leather seats, cool-touch metals and deep-pile carpets.
Chairman and Chief Executive of Bentley Motors, Wolfgang Durheimer, is particularly excited about the new model and what it could mean for the company's future:
"The GTC has always been the most emotional model in the Continental range and a showcase for Bentley design. With its tailored soft top, the GTC is a pure British convertible true to those classic Bentleys of the past."
However, the technology, performance and overall design excellence invested in this model means that we are now writing a new chapter for the Bentley convertible driver."
The cabin is notably more spacious on the four-seater luxury convertible, with additional rear legroom and new storage solutions. Other new features include touch-screen infotainment, automatic seat-belt presenters and a Bentley-designed neck warmer.
Director of Design at Bentley Motors, Dirk van Braeckel, said:
"The GTC is a confident Bentley convertible that's more sculpted, more dynamic and more potent than ever before. The wider track, deeper body side and larger wheels give it a low, lithe and sporty stance that commands attention, roof up or roof down."
It certainly seems as though Bentley have made a definite decision to attempt to appeal to a younger demographic with this new model. Time will tell if their plan pays off.
