2015 Bentley Continental GT3-R revealed

The Bentley Continental GT3-R is set to debut in Pebble Beach, U.S. this week. It is the fastest accelerating Bentley ever produced by the British luxury car manufacturer.

Inspired by the Bentley GT3 race car, the GT3-R is powered by a twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 developing 572 hp and 700 Nm of torque, and it is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. However, it is almost 100 kg lighter than the standard V8 version, helping it achieve a 0-100 kph time of just 3.8 seconds. Keep accelerating and it can reach a top speed of 273 kph.

The GT3-R only comes in white with some green graphics around it. It gets an aerodynamic kit, gloss black accents and 21-inch lightweight black alloy wheels.

Inside the GT3-R, it gets leather and Alcantara front seats, carbon-fibre trim and there is no rear seat, due to weight saving.

It has not been revealed yet whether the Bentley Continental GT3-R will make its way to the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other GCC countries.
