Bentley will launch a GT2 version of its top-selling Continental next year, new boss Wolfgang Durheimer has told Auto Express.
The model will be at least 200kg lighter than the standard GT, weighing 2,200kg, and will develop a staggering 650bhp – that’s nearly 100bhp more than the regular coupe. This would mean a 0-60mph sprint time of less than four seconds and a top speed of well over 200mph.
Durheimer would not confirm whether the GT2 will use the existing W12 engine or the new twin-turbo V8, due in 2012.
