Bentley is preparing its cheapest and most compact model yet. Of course, in the context of brand positioning, these concepts are very relative.. But, as always, the car will be built on VW components. The ambitious car was shown in the first photos.
Details reported by Carscoops. In fact, the first confirmation of the use of units from other manufacturers of the concern can be seen in the photo. Before us is a test prototype of the new Bentley model, which is hidden under the body of a Porsche Cayenne.
However, for Bentley the platform will be made a little shorter in order to get a crossover with a body length of less than 5 m. It is based on PPE architecture, which debuted with the new Porsche Macan EV..
Bentley's first electric car is expected to arrive by 2026 as a 2027 model year car.. The car is positioned as a city car.
There is no technical information about the electric car. The most powerful Macan EV offers 630 horsepower and a range of about 600 km. This is a benchmark for a British crossover that can be made even more powerful.
