宾利近日发布了2016款欧陆GT Speed,该车搭载的6.0升W12引擎功率提升5千瓦/7马力至642马力,扭矩增加20牛米至840牛米。宾利工程师进一步优化了增压控制系统以确保在整个转速范围内增加扭矩输出,现在在2000-5000转/分范围内都可获得峰值扭矩。由于功率和扭矩提升,该车0-96公里/小时加速时间3.9秒(百公里加速时间4.1秒),最高时速331公里。与老款车相比,新车加速时间缩短0.1秒。除了2016款车型,宾利还发布了欧陆GT Speed的黑色版本(Black Edition),涵盖了轿跑车和敞篷车。这款车采用高亮度黑色装饰件,黑色或红色刹车卡钳和五辐纯黑21英寸轮圈。黑色版本采用对比色前分流器,后散流器和侧裙,色彩搭配的后视镜盖。车厢内配备碳纤维装饰件和对比色真皮内饰。无论是标准版还是黑色版本目前已经开始接受预订,宾利将在夏季交付。
2016 Bentley Continental GT Speed revealed with 642 hp
The new model year brings an extra 7 horsepower (5 kilowatts) and 15 pound-feet (20 newton meters) of torque for the massive biturbo 6.0-liter W12 engine now delivering a grand total of 642 hp and 620 lb-ft (840 Nm). Bentley’s engineers have optimized the boost control to make sure the additional torque is applied through the entire rev range and now the peak torque is available from 2,000 rpm to 5,000 rpm.
Thanks to the extra punch, the Continental GT Speed will now run the sprint from 0 to 60 mph (96 kph) in 3.9 seconds (0-62 mph / 0-100 kph takes 4.1s) before topping out at 206 mph (331 kph). Compared to the previous version, the model is 0.1s quicker in both sprints and has the same top speed as before.
Along with the new model year, Bentley is also introducing a Black Edition of the Continental GT Speed available for both coupe and convertible body styles. Available with a wide variety of colors, the special variant can be visually distinguished by high gloss black accents, including for the lamp bezels and window openings. Buyers get to choose from black or red brake calipers hiding behind those five-spoke, all-black 21-inch wheels.
Moreover, the Black Edition has contrast colors on the front splitter, rear diffuser, and side skirts that can be had in St James’ Red, Beluga, Hallmark, and a new hue called Cyber Yellow. Rounding off the list of exterior tweaks is the possibility to color-match the side mirror caps.
Stepping inside the cabin, there are carbon fiber accents on the fascia, center, and roof consoles, combined with contrasting leather available in Pillar Box Red, Beluga, Porpoise, or the fresh Cyber Yellow to continue the exterior’s theme. These leathers come with contrast stitching on the Mulliner GT Design seats and there’s also diamond quilting for the door panels.
Both the regular Continental GT Speed and the GT Speed Black Edition are already available on order, with Bentley saying it will kick off deliveries in the summer.
