Imagine a super-fast car that runs on electricity alone, with no noisy petrol engine ever added – that's Bentley's bold new ride coming soon!
Bentley, the famous car maker from Britain that builds very fancy and powerful cars, has big news for car lovers like you. Their first electric car, called the Luxury Urban EV, will stay all-electric. No petrol engines or hybrid mixes will be added later. This means Bentley is going full speed into the future with clean power.
What Makes This EV Special?
This new car is like a dream for city drivers. It is smaller than Bentley's big SUV called Bentayga, under 5 meters long, so it fits easy in tight spots. It uses a special electric base from Volkswagen Group, named PPE platform. This base is made just for electric motors, not old petrol ones. CEO Frank-Steffen Walliser said, "No plan to put ICE or plug-in hybrid in it." He means it is not easy or smart to change it later.
You can picture zipping around in luxury. Inside, expect soft leather seats, big screens, and wood touches like all Bentleys. It fights rivals like Porsche Cayenne Electric and Rolls-Royce's EV. But Bentley promises top fun without petrol noise or smoke.
Why No Petrol Engines?
Many car companies add petrol options if electric sales slow. Like Lotus did with its EV SUV. But Bentley says no. The EV platform can't fit petrol engines – it is "technically not feasible," says the boss. Instead, love your current Bentayga PHEV with its petrol-electric mix for 45 km electric drive. The new EV hunts new fans who want pure green power.
This choice shows Bentley trusts electric cars. Even if luxury EV sales dip, they stick to plan. It helps save Earth by cutting dirty air. You can feel good driving one, knowing no fuel waste.
Power and Speed You Will Love
Get ready for thrills! It may have two electric motors for all wheels, like 1,000 horsepower – super strong pull. Battery around 113 kWh, like Porsche's. Best part? Charge 100 miles in just 7 minutes at fast stations. That is quicker than many phones charge! Range could top 600 km on one go. Perfect for long trips without stops.
Launch in late 2026, cars for buyers in 2027. Made in UK factory. Price? Like other Bentleys, over lakhs, but worth for luxury.
