Bentley is giving its latest grand tourers a sharper edge with an upgraded carbon fiber styling package that brings larger aero pieces, a tougher stance and wider availability. The new specification covers the Continental GT, GT Convertible and Flying Spur, offering a more assertive look that lines up with the cars’ latest performance updates. Bentley Bentayga SUV buyers can also choose the Carbon Fiber Styling Specification.
The package builds on a popular option from the previous generation and now reaches deeper into the lineup, including Mulliner models. Bentley says customer demand for personalization drove the expansion, and the new spec is designed to integrate cleanly with updates already made to the current Continental and Flying Spur platforms.
Carbon fiber package expands across the lineup
The Carbon Fibre Styling Specification introduces a front splitter, full length side sills with integrated electroformed Bentley badges, mirror caps and a larger rear diffuser. All components are crafted in carbon fiber and mirror matched across the centerline, following the same approach Bentley uses for interior veneers. The front splitter has been reinforced to double its previous thickness for added strength, while the diffuser is larger than before to enhance stability and presence.
Bentley developed the package alongside its latest model updates rather than treating it as an aftermarket add on. The components underwent more than 100,000 km of durability testing and multiple development cycles. The carbon weave is laid in layered sections for structural integrity, and each piece receives a gloss finish intended to remain consistent with the brand’s current design language. The addition of three dimensional Bentley badges on the side sills reflects a new manufacturing step that uses a bespoke electroforming process to achieve a faceted surface with minimal lacquer imperfections.
The styling package made its public debut on a Continental GT speed at the 2025 Goodwood Festival of speed. Owners of fourth generation cars can order the components as a retrofit through retailers, while new car buyers can add the package during commissioning.
Performance context
The upgraded styling arrives as Bentley’s latest Continental GT and Flying Spur models adopt new Performance hybrid powertrains capable of up to 771 hp and 738 ft-lbs. of torque. Both cars can reach 62 mph in as little as 3.2 seconds. Bentley says the carbon fiber package supports the aerodynamic needs of these updated models while maintaining the visual character expected of the brand.
