Bentley has announced the expansion of its Beyond100 strategy until 2035, now called Beyond100+. This shift aims to strengthen the brand’s commitment to luxury and sustainability in the automotive industry. A key highlight is the debut of their new Luxury Urban SUV, set to launch in 2026. This model will be Bentley’s first fully electric vehicle (BEV) and is expected to establish a new segment in the market.
Bentley also plans to launch a new hybrid (PHEV) or electric model every year until 2035. This initiative demonstrates Bentley’s ongoing transformation towards a fully electric lineup by 2035, as well as the extension of the lifecycle of its PHEV models and the gradual phase-out of combustion engines, including the iconic W12 engine.
The Beyond100+ strategy is supported by ongoing investment in their Crewe-based “Dream Factory.” The next generation of this facility will feature a cutting-edge Design Centre, Paint Shop, and BEV assembly line, reflecting Bentley’s vision for digital, flexible, and high-value manufacturing for an electrified future.
Chairman and CEO Dr. Frank-Steffen Walliser emphasized Bentley's commitment to a decarbonized future, stating, "Beyond100+ will guide us as we expand our ambitions beyond 2030, while strengthening our credentials as the British creator of exceptional cars for over a century and beyond."
