Bentley Motors today confirmed that its first fully electric car will arrive in 2026 as the “world’s first true Luxury Urban SUV.” This new model will be the first of a new PHEV or BEV model to be launched every year over the next decade.
The British luxury marque also announced an extension of its Beyond100 business strategy, now called Beyond100+, from 2030 to 2035 – a move that aimed at extending the lifecycle of its PHEV models before becoming fully electric in 2035.
Dr. Frank-Steffen Walliser, Chairman and CEO of Bentley Motors, said:
“Four years almost to the day that Bentley initially outlined its Beyond100 strategy, we adapt to today’s economic, market and legislative environment to initiate a major transformative phase for tomorrow.
“Beyond100+ becomes our guiding light as we extend our ambitions beyond 2030, while maintaining our aim of a decarbonised future, including offering only fully electric cars from 2035, and reinforcing our credentials as the British creator of extraordinary cars for over a century and beyond.”
The latest-generation of Bentley’s Continental GT coupe, Convertible and Flying Spur models are now exclusively powered by the all-new Ultra Performance plug-in V8 hybrid powertrain, following the discontinuation of its iconic W12 engine.
