REPRESENTATIVE PHOTOSebastian Pichard / PexelsOur verdict
9.2 / 10The new-generation Bentley Continental GT arrives in the UAE as a full plug-in hybrid for the first time, pairing a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 with a 25.9 kWh battery for up to 80 km of electric cruising — and up to 771 hp in Speed form. It remains the definitive grand tourer: a car that can silence the Autobahn at 335 km/h yet waft through Downtown Dubai in near-silence. In the UAE, where Bentley ownership is a cultural statement as much as a motoring choice, the Continental GT's blend of supreme hand-crafted luxury, genuine EV daily usability, and effortless performance is unmatched.
