Top Used Bentley Models
As you consider your options, think about how you'll use your preowned Bentley. Will you drive it regularly or only on important occasions? How many people will you typically have in the vehicle? Are you planning to keep the Bentley long-term, or will you sell the car in a few years? Answering these questions can help you narrow down your options so you select the ideal model for your needs and driving preferences.
Bentley Bentayga: A Blend of Luxury and Performance
First introduced in 2013, the Bentley Bentayga SUV is the ideal blend of luxury and performance. The massive cabin can seat up to five passengers, depending on the year and trim, and the spacious cargo area makes the Bentayga a versatile option for everyday driving. Soft materials throughout the interior, supportive front seats, and easy-to-reach knobs and controls make the Bentayga comfortable and inviting, while the intuitive infotainment screen has everything you need to stay connected and entertained in a user-friendly package.
Exceptional in every detail, the Bentayga's appeal continues to the exterior, where round headlights flank the prominent chrome or black front grille, giving the SUV a dominating presence. A sleek rear hatch spoiler helps with aerodynamics and provides a polished look. Wheel sizes range from 21 to 23 inches.
Bentley Continental GT: Elegance and Power
Over the years, Bentley has refined the Continental GT to ensure it offers the dynamic yet luxurious driving experienced you'd expect from the brand. Bringing you high-end elegance and top-tier power, the Bentley Continental GT is a meticulously crafted touring car that exceeds expectations. Interior features you might find in a preowned Continental GT include plush leather upholstery, heated seats, wireless phone connectivity, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and remote keyless entry. Some models also include upgrades such as an auto tilt-away steering wheel, head-up display, and contrast stitching.
The Bentley Continental GT is available as either a coupe or convertible. Round headlights and oval taillights give the car a distinct appearance, while its elegant curves draw attention to all the right places. The Bentley logo sits front and center on the large grille and on the trunk.
Bentley Flying Spur: The Epitome of Sophistication
As a full-size luxury sedan, the Bentley Flying Spur is the epitome of sophistication and class. Its opulent features make you feel at home even when you're on the road. Modern amenities ensure comfort and convenience, even when you're being chauffeured. A rear center console touch screen gives you access to the car's features without having to ask the driver for assistance, so you can turn on your seat's massage feature or adjust the stereo volume without saying a word.
Many of the Flying Spur's driver-assist technologies are upgrades, but you may find these features already equipped in a preowned model. This means your Flying Spur could come with adaptive cruise control, automated emergency braking, and parking sensors, making your drive around the D.C. metro area less stressful.
Bentley Special Editions and Rare Finds
While getting your hands on a used Bentley isn't always easy, it can be particularly challenging to find special editions or rare models. Because of the exclusive nature of the Bentley brand, it shouldn't surprise you to know there are several special editions and rare finds out there. For instance, in 2019, the Bentayga Stetson Edition came out, but only three models were ever made. The Bentley Flying Spur Design Series by Mulliner is also special because it lets you add unique and personalized design elements that make the car one-of-a-kind.
Vehicle Specifications That Matter
The most important vehicle specifications for the Bentley include the engine and drivetrain options and the car's fuel economy. Here's what you need to know about these details.
Engine and Drivetrain Options
Your preowned Bentley will have one of several efficient powertrains under the hood. Bentayga models come with a 3.0-liter V-6 hybrid engine that combines the power of gas and electricity for more efficient fuel consumption. This powertrain delivers 443 horsepower in most trims and up to 456 horsepower in others. An upgraded twin-turbo V-8 engine with 542 horsepower is also available. Both engines pair with an eight-speed automatic transmission, and all-wheel-drive is standard.
The Continental GT and Flying Spur have similar plug-in hybrid engines that offer limited all-electric driving capabilities for short drives to the office or business meetings at the National Mall. The 4.0-liter V-8 plug-in hybrid system can generate up to 771 horsepower, giving you plenty of force to get up to speed. Some older Bentley models may also have the iconic 6.0-liter W12 engine that is no longer available.
Fuel Type and Economy
A plug-in hybrid Bentley model can get up to 50 miles of electric-only driving range, otherwise, this high-end car uses gas as its primary fuel source. Fuel economy differs between models. On the low end, you can get 14 mpg when driving your Bentley in the city, while the high-end fuel economy rating is around 21 mpg on the highway. Hybrid models can get as much as 24 mpg on the highway and 18 mpg on the city streets of the Washington metro area.
