Bentley is focusing on attracting new buyers by combining high-end luxury with improved efficiency in its latest models. The new Continental GT, GTC, and Flying Spur are now available with a High-Performance Hybrid setup in the United States and other places.
The 2025 Bentley Continental GT blends impressive hybrid performance with refined luxury, offering advanced technology, sleek design, and a powerful driving experience for premium car buyers.
Buyers who care about speed will still enjoy what these hybrids offer. The new Continental GT reaches 60 mph in 3.5 seconds, while the GTC convertible takes 3.8 seconds. The Flying Spur sedan also clocks in at 3.8 seconds.
These numbers are only slightly slower than the top-Speed versions. Even with lower horsepower, these hybrids still feel quick and powerful, giving buyers a great mix of performance and luxury.
The new High-Performance Hybrid engine uses a twin-turbocharged V8 (4.0-liter) paired with an electric motor. This combination creates horsepower (671) and torque (568 lb-ft). While it is lower than the Ultra Performance Hybrid (771-hp), it still gives plenty of strength for daily driving.
The hybrid system (such as in the Hyundai Elantra Hybrid model) also includes a battery pack (25.9-kWh), which helps the cars run smoothly on electric power for short distances without using fuel.
The electric-only range is an important feature for many buyers (including those with the Alfa Romeo Tonale Hybrid model). The Continental GT can drive up to 53 miles on electric power, while the GTC offers 51 miles.
The Flying Spur delivers 50 miles. It makes short city trips possible without using gasoline. It helps reduce emissions and fuel costs, which is something many buyers are looking for when choosing a luxury hybrid vehicle in today’s market.
Bentley now offers two plug-in hybrid power options. The Ultra Performance Hybrid delivers 771 hp and is found in the Speed and Mulliner trims. The High-Performance Hybrid, with 671 hp, is available in the base and Azure trims.
While the power is different, both versions use the same electric motor. This second option gives buyers a quieter and more efficient choice without giving up Bentley’s known performance and smooth ride.
The High-Performance Hybrid cars come with subtle design changes. The GT models have a gloss black grille, matte lower grilles, and updated ‘Harmony’ headlamps. Azure trims add unique badges, 22-inch wheels, and diamond-quilted upholstery with soft-touch materials.
All versions offer a modern cabin with high-quality materials. These design updates help the cars feel fresh, classy, and a bit more refined for the new hybrid generation of Bentley vehicles.
Buyers also get advanced features in both core and Azure versions. Bentley Active Chassis is standard and includes Dynamic Ride, rear-wheel steering, and electronic limited-slip differential.
The Touring, Comfort, and Lighting packages are also included in Azure models. These features work together to make each trip feel smooth and controlled, whether you are driving through the city or taking a long highway journey with family or friends.
The High-Performance Hybrid setup is available in core and Azure trims for the 2025 Continental GT, GTC, and Flying Spur (Read more about Bentley Flying Spur First Drive Review here).
These models are already available for order in many markets. The Continental GT starts at $265,900 in the U.S. Prices for the Flying Spur have not been confirmed yet.
The new High-Performance Hybrid models show Bentley’s smart move toward more sustainable luxury. They offer lower emissions and electric driving without losing comfort or strength. Whether you want a coupe, convertible, or sedan, Bentley gives a stylish hybrid that still feels exciting.
The 2025 Bentley Continental GT proves that luxury and hybrid performance can work together without compromise. Explore Bentley’s latest models to find your ideal match.
