  • Many 2014 Bentley Continental GT vehicles use an OEM-specified 12-volt battery, commonly an AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) design to meet high electrical demands and protect sensitive electronics.
  • The exact battery chemistry and specification can vary by original equipment and optional features; our technicians verify the correct OEM specification by VIN.
  • We install OEM-spec or equivalent batteries that meet Bentley’s electrical and safety standards, ensuring proper voltage stability and system compatibility.
  • Using the proper battery type reduces the risk of electrical faults, improves longevity, and ensures compatibility with manufacturer diagnostics and battery registration requirements.
  • For warranty-covered components, certified-dealership installation is required to keep coverage valid and to guarantee genuine parts and correct programming.

What size battery is in the 2014 Bentley Continental GT?

  • Battery group size and cold-cranking rating are determined by the vehicle’s original specification and options; the precise size is confirmed by VIN and inspection.
  • Rather than guessing a generic group size, Bentley Boston verifies the OEM size and CCA (cold-cranking amps) and installs the correct battery to preserve electrical system integrity.
  • Using the wrong physical size or capacity can cause fitment issues, poor terminal contact, and potential electronic faults; our team ensures correct fit and secure mounting.
  • We provide complete documentation of the installed battery, including specifications and warranty, and handle proper recycling of the old battery per environmental regulations.
  • Any repairs or replacements covered under warranty must be completed at a certified dealership to maintain coverage and secure long-term protection for your vehicle.
