Bentley pulled the wraps off the latest limited version of the Conti GT Convertible, called the Galene Edition.

The new variant was created by the company’s bespoke commissioning division Mulliner in collaboration with British yacht experts, Princess Yachts and is described as the ultimate edition of the Continental GT Convertible.

Finished in Glacier White with Sequin Blue details and a dark blue hood, the new Bentley Continental GT Convertible Galene Edition takes inspiration from yacht design.

Inside the theme continues, with seats covered in Linen and Portland hides with Camel hand cross stitching and the dashboard and door panels in Linen and Brunel. The fascia panels and stowage case can be specified with a unique handpainted Jaume Vilardell illustration of a super yacht alongside the Mulliner script in each car.

There is also a new material finish, called Pinstripe Walnut, which comes in an open-pore form for a more authentic, natural finish in the center stack and console.

The latest limited edition of the Bentley Continental GT Convertible will be produced in 30 copies worldwide, with power coming from the twin-turbo 500hp 4.0-liter V8.
