Bentley and Bang and Olufsen create an automotive first
Bentley and Bang & Olufsen have broken new ground in the automotive world by integrating the Danish brand’s revolutionary BeoSonic interface into the new Continental GT.
BeoSonic is designed to shape the sound in the car around you, with a simple, intuitive one-touch user interface allowing Continental GT customers to create an entirely tailored, bespoke in-car audio experience.
Bang & Olufsen BeoSonic One-Touch Experience provides four distinct audio spaces: Bright, Energetic, Warm & Relaxed. The sound tuning of the spaces is adjusted to the driver’s preferences through an easy-to-use, haptic touchscreen interface integrated into the multimedia system.
The interface features an eclipse design, and by moving a digital white marker the user chooses between the four different spaces. This enables the user to adjust the music according to their current mood – with a colour palette behind the eclipse reflecting the chosen sound mode. Surround intensity can also be adjusted with a pinching gesture, in the BeoSonic display. Additional settings can optimize the whole system for front or rear seat passengers.
The system also features 16 active loudspeakers and a powerful 1,500 watt BeoCore DSP amplifier ensuring an impressive high-quality sound. Customers selecting this system also benefit from the iconic design of the speaker grilles – finished in aluminium with holes drilled in variable sizes and angles and shaped to a uniquely-designed Fibonacci hole pattern. The angled holes are placed as tightly as possible to achieve the best acoustic transparency and to build a contrast to the glass-pearl blasted surface.
Another highlight is the LED illumination of the holes, which welcomes the driver when the system turns on. The Bang & Olufsen logo completes the unique speaker design and is debossed into the leather next to the grilles.
