Additional Notes

  • The Bentley Continental GT carries 0.53 liter of fluid in the front differential across the V8, W12, and W12 Speed configurations, a relatively small capacity consistent with a compact front differential unit in an all-wheel-drive platform.
  • The rear differential holds 1 liter across all three configurations, nearly double the front differential capacity, reflecting the larger housing and greater load-bearing role of the rear unit.
  • All six rows are designated for normal use conditions, meaning none of the listed capacities are tied to a severe-duty or first-change service scenario.
  • The Continental GT V8 shares identical front and rear differential capacities with the W12, despite the two engines differing substantially in displacement and cylinder count, indicating the drivetrain hardware is common between those two variants.
  • The W12 Speed variant, introduced from 2020, carries the same 0.53 liter front and 1 liter rear differential capacities as the standard W12, suggesting no differential hardware changes accompanied the Speed designation.
  • The W12 configuration has a starting year of 2018, making it the earliest-introduced variant among the three, while the V8 starts from 2019 and the W12 Speed from 2020.
