Hamann Imperator Bentley Continental GT
Hamann revealed today its new program for the Bentley Continental GT and Continental GT Speed dubbed the Imperator. The new program includes a new front bumper with integrated daytime running LEDs with new air inlets, front and rear wings extensions, new side skirts, but also a new rear trunk spoiler and new bumper with integrated air diffuser. Hamann utilized new rims of the Anniversary Race Anodized with 22 inch diameter to match the stunning looks of the Imperator. The wheel, which is remarkably light and multi-part forged, comes with a high-gloss polished outer rim and a black painted anodized rim star. The ideal wheel-tire combination for the front is 10.5Jx22 inches and 265/35 R 22 tires. The rear comes with 11.0Jx22 inch rims with 305/30 R 22 tires. A 21 inch option is also being offered by Hamann, coupled with tires measuring 295/30 R 21.
The tuning specialist provides an ultra-light forged wheel which combines sportiness and elegance in its design, all under the name Design Edition Race Anodized. The dynamics of the wheel are underscored by the black rim star and the titanium bolts, while the noble appearance comes from the high-gloss polished rim flange. Special chassis springs lower the center of gravity of the Continental GT by 30mm up front and 20mm at the axle at the back. All of these bring about a remarkable enhancement of the sports car's handling.
The center of the Hamann enhancement program is a powerful performance package that includes a sports end silencer with oval stainless steel tip pipes and a new powerplant management. Consequently the Continental GT receives an additional power yield of about 40hp/29kW and 90Nm of torque. The combined Continental GT is enhanced by 70hp/52kW and raised torque with an extra 90Nm. Furthermore, the top speed for both powerplants is raised by about 5km/h in contrast to their serial equivalent. The interior features a new ergonomically designed 3-spoke sport steering wheel which fits the hands better and offers all of the functions of the serial counterpart. The wheel is covered with high-grade leather and carbon fiber highlights, which totally fits the interior multi-part scheme of the vehicle. There are different color and material finishes options available such as black piano, leather or ultra suede. Everything, from the bespoke floor mats to the complete leather trim, was created with aesthetic precision, individually designed and fitted by the hands of skilled specialists.
