Hot! Bentley News And Rumors

[SKY]

Bah! This is just a Cayenne EV with the minimal changes. Not even the central console is any different.

they removed the best part out of the Bentley interiors which is the rotating screen.. idk why that would ruin that.

I agree, let's wait and see how it turns out.

I think they should have a car above the Conti that’s more of a Halo vehicle, could mid engine sports luxury car in this vein. Especially with Walliser at the helm now.

Driving back from the UK to the Netherlands on Monday night, I parked up at the Ionity chargers near the Channel Tunnel to find a huge SUV covered in a black tarpaulin, also charging. Two guys were milling about on phones. I walked over to see if they'd engage in a conversation but I didn't get the feeling they were up for it. After a few minutes they removed the taupalin. I was struggling to recognise what car it was, only concluding it was very "Porsche-like". When I saw one of the guys get into a Bentley Continental GT Convertible support car, I realised it must be a new Bentley electric SUV. As it's based on the Cayenne Electric, it's no doubt why I saw the Porsche resemblance. We then shared the same train under the Channel and I caught it again while waiting to board. I assume they were on their way to Sweden for winter testing.

Oh, and while I was parked up, a Red Bull truck pulled in to the petrol station, no doubt on its way to pre-season testing in Barcelona next week. It was all happening!!

It's looking good so far. Great scoop man!

This and the electric Rolls SUV will be direct competition and launch around the same time. Interesting.

It will be, in a way, due to its electric nature as a super-luxury SUV, but with the notable difference that, as I understand it, this is smaller and positioned below the Bentayga, while the Rolls EV is even larger than the Cullinan.

The Rolls surprised me, as I was expecting something more like this Bentley, a segment below and smaller than the Cullinan, more like the SUV version of the Ghost.

I thought the Rolls was the same size of the Cullinan, basically an alternative? (Sorry to digress)

Looks actually quite fantastic! 2026 will be interesting. How about a 2 car garage; the new ev as a daily and the new Supersports for fun.

I read that it's bigger in a couple of places and it looks that way in the photos, but yes, it basically seems like an EV alternative to the Culinan ICE.

Bentley says it will eliminate up to 275 positions in sales, distribution and administration as the Volkswagen Group ultraluxury brand prepares itself for continued turmoil in the automotive market.

Bentley to cut up to 275 jobs amid tariff pressure, weak China demand and EV rollback

Bentley will cut about 6 percent of its mainly U.K.-based workforce to reduce costs. The brand's profit margin fell in 2025 as it wrote off electric platform costs.

The war in the middle might add salt to the wounds as some customers might cancel their orders or not place any.
