Designed in a unique configuration of "W", it is the most compact and technologically advanced 12-cylinder in the world. Four camshafts and 48 valves allow the engine to breathe easily, and help create distinctive Bentley wave of torque. It is also capable of running on petrol (gasoline), E85 ethanol or a mixture of both - all from a single tank.
In 2008, Bentley has announced a comprehensive environmental agenda, which included a 15 percent improvement in powertrain efficiency and the adoption of Bentley models in flex-fuel technology in 2012. Bentley flex-fuel models are able to offer potential CO2 reduction of up to 70 percent on a "well to wheel" basis - the measure of CO2 emitted by a fuel from its production (good ) thanks to its combustion or implementation (wheel).
In order to be generated power and torque constant (regardless of fuel) fuel quality advanced continuously monitors the ratio of fuel used. After that controls the engine control unit adjusts the timing of the engine. This provides a continuous supply of power with Bentley engines are renowned for, and to ensure that no compromise in performance when using fuels that produce less CO2 emissions.

Later revisions of the new Bentley Continental GT Coupe engine includes a low friction, lightweight components that allows the engine to rev W12-format even more freely, while the latest engine management and two low-inertia turbochargers are optimized to ensure a minimum of turbo lag.
Overall, the Bentley Continental GT coupé, is 65 kg lighter than its predecessor thanks to reductions in all areas of the car from the engine components with new parts. With its output raised by 15PS and torque of 50 Nm - at 575p (567bhp/423kW) and 700 nm (£ 516 ft) - the result is an improvement of 6 percent in the new GT power to weight ratio, which makes it capable of accelerating from zero to 60 mph in just 4.4 seconds (0-100 km / h in 4.6 seconds) with a top speed of 198 mph (318 kmh).
The increased power and torque transfer to all four wheels via a drive system upgraded six-speed transmission Quick Shift, which halves the travel time (only 200 milliseconds). The gearbox has also revised the ability to deliver double downshifts (sixth to fourth gear, for example) and enhances acceleration in the speed range. To handle the power and torque, the planetary gear set of the ZF six-speed transmission is also enhanced.
Positive torque at debt reduction achieved by the engine and the interaction of electronic transmission controller for additional gas and fuel injection in the incident, a copy of the manual throttle "blips" for exactly matching rev. During gear changes up a gear, fuel and ignition cut time to give a fast switching time by limiting the mechanical couple also improve ride quality and durability.
