Car and Driver |
Chassis
The Aston Martin DB11 may be more efficient, handle and accelerate better because it weighs about 900 to 1200 pounds less than the Bentley Continental GT.
The DB11 is 3.9 inches shorter than the Continental GT, making the DB11 easier to handle, maneuver and park in tight spaces.
Cargo Capacity
The DB11 Volante has a much larger trunk with its top down than the Continental GTC (8.5 vs. 6 cubic feet).
Ergonomics
If the windows are left open on the DB11 the driver can close them all from a distance using the remote. On a hot day the driver can also lower the windows the same way. The driver of the Continental GT can’t use the remote to operate the windows.
To help drivers avoid possible obstacles, the DB11 has standard cornering lights to illuminate around corners when the turn signals are activated. The Continental GT doesn’t offer cornering lights. The DB11 also has standard adaptive headlights to illuminate around corners automatically by reading vehicle speed and steering wheel angle.
