Bentelys reveals first rainbow-inspired Continental GT V8 Convertible

Bentley Motors is partnering with Cheshire East Council for the North West of England's first virtual Pride event which takes place on Saturday 25 July 2020.

The announcement celebrates three key themes for Bentley: Pride in the diversity of its colleagues at the home of Bentley in Crewe and around the world, hope and gratitude as the business begins to emerge from the COVID-19 crisis and ongoing support for the local community.

To celebrate, a Bentley Continental GT V8 Convertible has been wrapped in a rainbow design showcasing six of Bentley's bespoke paint colours. The car will feature during the online Pride event which can be watched anywhere in the world.

Cheshire East's Virtual Pride 2020 will take place from Saturday 25 July 2020, 9:00pm, to Sunday 26 July 2020, 2:00am Singapore time, and will feature an eclectic mix of interviews, music, competitions, performances and information supporting the LGBTQ+ community.

To successfully wrap the car, Bentley's in-house designers and colour and trim team turned a concept created from a colleague competition into reality on a Continental GT Convertible.

This V8 model, with its unparalleled levels of luxury and cutting edge technology, featuring 20-inch 10-spoke painted alloy wheels, subtle V8 badging and a sublime, handcrafted interior, will take pride of place in the CW1 showroom in Crewe during this month. The rainbow Continental GT V8 Convertible will feature by video during the virtual event, alongside interviews with Bentley colleagues who are supporting the Pride experience.
