Bentley small electric SUV Concept

Latest reports suggest that the famous luxury carmaker is working on a completely new model that will feature an all-electric powertrain. Our reliable sources suggest it will be a crossover. This manufacturer released a completely new Bentayga a few years ago and after great receptions, they are aiming for some smaller and more affordable SUV. Unlike some rivals that will directly switch to electric sources of power, this manufacturer will offer a hybrid version first. The Bentayga Hybrid is on its way. Soon after, the all-electric smaller SUV should come.

This automatically means a significantly more affordable price, compared to the ultra-luxurious Bentayga.

When it comes to some base design characteristics, we can presume that many of VW technologies will find their place in this crossover. Simply, this model will be smaller and significantly cheaper, so there is enough space for some more production-friendly parts. We are pretty sure that the new model will first come in some kind of a concept form, maybe already in about a year or two.

So, it is pretty much certain that the new Bentley small electric SUV Concept will use pretty much all of these technological achievements.
