As electric vehicles become more prominent among mainstream brands, luxury automakers have followed suit, committing resources to viable lines of all-electric vehicles. Bentley has a plan to become fully carbon neutral by 2030 through its Beyond100 strategy, and part of that process involves releasing a fully-electric vehicle every year, beginning in 2025.
In a recent interview with Automotive News Europe, CEO Adrian Hallmark, laid out some initial details concerning its first EV that will serve as the launch point of its move towards sustainability. This vehicle, which will supposedly offer a body style in the same vein of the current Bentley line-up (Continental GT coupe/convertible, Flying Spur sedan, and Bentayga SUV), will be equipped with 1,400 horsepower and an acceleration from 0-60 mph in 1.5 seconds.
