Bentley has revealed that the fourth generation of the Continental GT will debut globally in June 2024. The 2025 Bentley Continental GT will be released as a plug-in hybrid with the latest V8 powertrain. The first-generation Continental GT debuted in 2002, and next month the brand will introduce the first hybrid model with all-new Bentley’s Ultra Performance Hybrid engine. This fourth-generation model will be the first car to be built around Bentley’s new hybrid V8 engine and motor.
The 2025 Bentley Continental GT V8 Hybrid will continue to have stylish, luxurious contours featuring all-new royal grilles and a new bumper. The headlights will be single-rounded and will showcase Bentley’s new design language module. The rear of the car will be more streamlined, so the aerodynamics will be improved. The rear tail lights will continue to serve from the previous models for the fourth time in a row. The design and dimensions of the car will be somehow similar to those of the 2024 Batur model.
This will be the first time in 23 years of history that the brand will now use a hybrid V8 powertrain under the hood, replacing the iconic 6.0L Twin-Turbo W12 engine. The new Continental GT will showcase a new class of deliberate style that defines the true craftsmanship of the touring spirit. With an all-wheel-drive system, the car is set to be one of the fastest machines as an EV from the brand. Let us delve into the all-new, potent V8 PHEV engine in the new 2025 Continental GT.

The 2025 Bentley Continental GT will be one of the most powerful PHEVs yet, thanks to its all-new plug-in-hybrid powertrain.

The new engine will be built in-house using the brand’s all-new Ultra Performance hybrid setup. This new advanced setup will feature a 4.0L plug-in hybrid V8 engine induced by a single motor. This V8 hybrid setup will not only outperform the previous W12 engine but also show the steps in Bentley’s plans to electrify cars and create sustainable performance cars with no carbon emissions.

The vehicle will be one of the first drives from Bentley that will boast WLTP CO2 figures under 50g/km. This car will be one of the most powerful and eco-friendly Grand Tourers from Bentley as Bentley claimed to go full electrification by the end of the year 2026.
