Bentley Continental GT V8 Mk III

The Bentley Continental GT V8 Mk III reaches 60 mph in 3.45 s (100 km/h in 3.64 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 11.81 s, tripping the lights at 118.0 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.81 s and the eighth mile in 7.60 s, reaching 100 mph in 8.44 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Continental GT V8 Mk III

The 2019 Bentley Continental GT V8 Mk III is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged coupe of 2,165 kg with 542 bhp, which works out at 250 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.81 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 601st quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest five per cent, and the 9th quickest of the 70 Bentleys here. Its 118.0 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 11 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Bentley Continental GT V8 Mk III 0-60 time?
The Bentley Continental GT V8 Mk III reaches 60 mph in 3.45 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 601st quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Bentley Continental GT V8 Mk III quarter mile time?
11.81 s at 118.0 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.60 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.81 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Bentley Continental GT V8 Mk III have?
542 bhp and 2,165 kg, which is 250 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 7 gears and a quoted top speed of 319 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Bentley Continental GT V8 Mk III?
Closest here on pace: Alpine A 110 R 1.8 300 (3.45 s), Porsche 718 Cayman GTS (3.44 s), Lotus Evora GT (North America) 3.5 V6 422 (3.47 s). Each one can be raced against the Bentley Continental GT V8 Mk III in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Bentley Continental GT V8 Mk III is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 11 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
