The World's First Urban Luxury SUV - Bentley's Beyond100+ Vision Unveiled for 2026

Bentley’s forward-looking Beyond100 strategy, now extended and rebranded as Beyond100+, reaches towards an ambitious 2035 milestone. This enhanced roadmap reaffirms the luxury automaker’s commitment to innovation, sustainability, and electrification, setting the stage for transformative change.

Introducing the First-Ever Luxury Urban Electric SUV

Bentley has confirmed that its first fully electric vehicle, expected in 2026, aims to create an entirely new segment—a true luxury urban SUV. Designed, developed, and set for production in Crewe, this pioneering model will be the first in a series of new PHEV or BEV releases, planned annually until 2035, as Bentley continues its drive toward a fully electric lineup.

Bentley, already an innovator in luxury hybrid technology, will extend its PHEV model lineup through 2035, bridging the transition to a fully electric future. Iconic models like the Continental GT, Convertible, and Flying Spur now exclusively feature a high-performance plug-in V8 hybrid, marking the brand’s shift following the retirement of the renowned W12 engine after two decades of legacy.

Transforming Crewe into a ‘Dream Factory’ for Electrification

In Crewe, Bentley’s journey towards a sustainable future progresses with the continued development of its ‘Dream Factory.’ This next-generation manufacturing facility, a leader in certified carbon-neutral operations, will accommodate state-of-the-art BEV assembly, a cutting-edge design center, and a new paint shop, representing Bentley’s largest self-funded site investment in its 105-year history.

The path set by Beyond100+ paves the way for a decarbonized, future-proof Bentley that embodies luxury and sustainability for generations to come.
