Bentley’s EV: 1.5 Seconds from 0-97 km/h
The limits of performance, when it comes to electric vehicles, seem to be... limitless. Further proof came recently when Bentley CEO Adrian Hallmark indicated that the brand's first electric car, due in 2025, could offer up to 1,400 hp.
“If we're 650 hp now with GT Speed, we will be double that with the BEV,” Hallmark told Automotive News Europe. “But from a 0 to 60 mph point of view, there are diminishing returns. The problem is, it's uncomfortable. And then it just becomes nauseous.” The Bentley EV will be based on the PPE platform also set to serve as the basis for the Audi Q6 e-tron and the Porsche Macan EV. In terms of styling, Adrian Hallmark remains vague, except to say that “what we will not do is try and make them look like electric cars.”Photo: Bentley Bentley EXP 100GT concept, 2019, rear The executive had this to say last year: “If you’re not in SUVs, you're nowhere”, which of course fed speculation that the first all-electric Bentley might be one.
