Bentley Contintental GT Speed 2015 - pictures

This is the latest Bentley Continental GT Speed, powered by a 6.0-litre W12 engine producing 626bhp. 

The Continental GT has recently received a few tweaks to the styling - both inside and out - while 12-cylinder GT Speed models have had numerous engine upgrades, meaning this latest version will sprint from 0-62mph in just 4.1 seconds

At the front, the mesh radiator grille has been redesigned to look sportier, as the the front bumper. 

The W12 Speed version features a cylinder deactivation system, with Bentley claiming the new car's economy has increased by as much as 20 per cent in the real world. 

Despite this, economy figures of 18.9mpg and CO2 emissions of 347g/km aren't really much to shout about. 

Extra chrome detailing around the rear lights is one of a few tweaks to the exterior of the Continental GT. 

The GT Speed weighs 2,395kg, meaning some hefty brakes are needed to bring the car to a stop. 

Inside, there's plenty of leather and plush materials, with plenty of new quiliting details for the seats.

As part of the raft of new updates, various trim levels are now available. 

New quilting detail for the seats is available, and the Continental is a great place to spend time in. 

There are only a few subtle clues as to this range-topping model's abilities.

The Continental GT has been around a while now, but it's still a distinctive and contemporary looking car. 

There's a new diffuser at the rear, along with a small new boot spoiler.
