Production of Bentley’s new Continental GTC has started at the manufacturer’s Crewe factory.

The GTC is the third member of Bentley's Continental family, and joins the Continental GT coupe and the Continental Flying Spur four-door.

UK deliveries of the GTC start this month.

Bentley Motors also confirms that, from the end of the year, all Bentley models will be manufactured in Crewe. Final assembly of a small proportion of Continental Flying Spurs was at the premier Volkswagen Group manufacturing facility in Dresden, Germany. This will come to an end as planned in December.
