Welcome to Tomorrow

Bentley's vision for electric mobility: the EXP 100 GT and Bentayga Hybrid.

What does luxury motoring look like in the future? Bentley offers two compelling answers. To celebrate its centenary last year, the British marque didn't just introduce the Bentayga Hybrid—it also revealed a radically reimagined concept car. The all-electric Bentley EXP 100 GT envisions what grand touring could be in 2035: a masterclass in long-distance travel refined for a sustainable era. Drawing inspiration from the essence of the open road—flowing air, natural light, and endless horizons—this visionary study propels grand touring, Bentley's DNA since its founding, boldly into the future.

At 5.80 meters long and 2.40 meters wide, the EXP 100 GT wouldn't look out of place in a sci-fi thriller, yet it's unmistakably Bentley. The signature radiator grille and iconic round headlights blend seamlessly with a muscular rear end and slim tail lights to create an arresting, forward-looking profile. Inside this futuristic coupé lies gullwing doors and an electric motor delivering 1,500 Nm of torque with all-wheel drive—accelerating its 1.9 tonnes to 100 km/h in just 2.5 seconds. The cabin reimagines Bentley luxury for tomorrow: recycled, hand-polished wood; plush long-pile carpets; and biometric comfort seats crafted from Cradle to Cradle-certified textiles derived from wine production waste. OLED displays, meticulously designed controls, and crystal inlays elevate the sensory experience in a vehicle that offers both manual and autonomous driving modes. Now, from visionary concepts to present-day reality: the Bentayga Hybrid represents Bentley's opening chapter in the electric mobility story. As the world's first luxury hybrid, it combines an advanced aluminium exterior—marked by elegant proportions, flowing contours, and seamless surfaces—with a V6 petrol engine and electric motor that deliver the Bentayga family's lowest CO₂ emissions. The interior upholds Bentley's unwavering commitment to refinement: exquisitely stitched seats with longitudinal quilting and diamond-knurled controls. Eight layers of acoustic insulation cocoon occupants in a profoundly serene silence during all-electric driving. With virtually unlimited options for veneers, paint finishes, and leather hues—plus the Mulliner Styling Specification's bespoke design elements—each Bentayga Hybrid becomes a uniquely personalized expression of individual taste.
