Bentley Collaborates with Korean Artist... Continental GT Korea Limited Edition Model Released
Bentley Motors Korea launched the Continental GT 'Korea Limited Edition' exclusively for the Korean market on the 26th. This model is a limited edition of 10 units created specifically for Korean consumers in collaboration with Korean abstract artist Ha Tae-im.
The Korea Limited Edition was produced through a collaboration between Bentley's bespoke division Mulliner and Korean abstract artist Ha Tae-im. For this collaboration, Mulliner and Ha have worked closely together over the past year. Mulliner designers and craftsmen faithfully reproduced Ha Tae-im's signature 'Color Band' in the design inside and outside the Continental GT, completing a unique personality and aesthetic imbued with the sensibility of contemporary Korean art.
The most distinctive feature of the Korea Limited Edition is the incorporation of elements from the artwork into the vehicle's design. Five accent colors extracted from the Color Band of the main theme artwork created for this collaboration?Rich, Arctic Blue, Hyperactive, Linen, and Tanzanite Purple?are placed throughout the interior of the vehicle.
The exterior colors selected for the Korea Limited Edition are two types: pure white 'Ice' and deep black 'Black Crystal.' These colors create a refined atmosphere while highlighting the beautiful design and body lines unique to the Continental GT.
Mulliner undertook special processing to perfectly realize Ha's Color Band while maintaining the diamond knurling detail and durability. This is the first time in Bentley's history that color has been applied to the air vents.
The Continental GT, which forms the basis of the Korea Limited Edition, is Bentley's flagship model first launched in 2003. The Continental GT is equipped with a 4.0ℓ V8 twin-turbo engine producing a maximum output of 550 horsepower and maximum torque of 78.5 kg·m, an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, and Bentley's world-first electronic active roll control system, 'Bentley Dynamic Ride.'
Only 10 units of the Korea Limited Edition will be produced. Considering the combinations of two exterior colors and five accent colors, each of these 10 units possesses its own individuality. Customers who purchase the Korea Limited Edition will receive a special artwork by Ha Tae-im.
The official selling price of the Bentley Continental GT Korea Limited Edition is 463.1 million KRW (including VAT), and deliveries to customers will proceed sequentially.
