Hot! Bentley EXP 100 GT

[Deleted member 1071]

Hmmm...sans the "space bling"...avec 4 conventional doors...a wee smidgen of nip and tuck performed on the rear overhang...and an interior at least remotely akin to those of the Conti GT and new Flying Spur...and we may have a truly fine "production viable" 4 door GT sedoupe.

Lol im overwhelmed, look at front. the grill is like a spiderweb that just takes over the headlights and move out in those 2 twisted web light elements on each side..

Art!

It is one of the most beautiful concepts I have ever seen.
It is Bentley in all its glory without being overwhelmed by RR, but returning the punch and what a punch !!, hopefully (I think) this will move to the next Muslane?

God damn just saw the rear lights, they are epic as well.

Those are indeed wild ! The entire rear "canvas" that serves as the taillamps platform is gorgeous, as is the rake of the rear window and the way it flows into the decklid. As you said: "Epic".

I've just read that the EXP 100 GT Concept is 5800mm (!!) long and nearly 2400mm (!!) wide. Gargantuan dimensions. I hope that a possible production model will be a bit more trim. No longer than the new Flying Spur...or better yet...5100-5200mm in length and no wider than 1980mm. A bit longer and wider than Audis' eTron GT-but hopefully just as low.

Other than the pointy rear end, it's quite breath taking. WOW.

Kind of Maybach-esque don't you think?

Yes and interestingly enough that is the only weakness of this concept, IMO.

As mentioned earlier in this thread, this design has massive potential.

I hope that a number of elements, especially those located on the rear of the car, find their way onto the BEV 4 door sedoupe that Stefan Sielaff has frequently alluded to.

Doesn't need an actual grille if it's electric

It doesn't in fact. But a Bentley BEV will require an immediately identifiable "plaque". The one on the EXP 100 GT Concept is, of course, exhibitionistic high drama to the extreme. Dinner at Le Cinq followed by Wagners' "The Walkyrie" and an entire baking tray filled with "electric" brownies and a bottle of Reyka to top the night off.

Quite stunning.
Reminds me of the Maybach 6 in some aspects.

Because of the non-requirement of forward cooling on EVs.
Expect designers to be very adventurous with Grille sizes.

The front looks a bit like macabre, something terrifying or lifeless with the lights and grill off.
All that joy and LED movement that we saw when they presented it, is very noticeable when it is no longer there, it is so large and communicated with the headlights, that it looks like a road advertising led display off.

This would be a great new Mulsanne.
