Bentley has unveiled a stunning, futuristic look at what could prove to be its first-ever EV.
The British brand is one of the premier luxury car brands anywhere in the world.
Like its rivals, such as Rolls-Royce, Bentley faces the challenge of evolving into the next generation.
But now we might finally have a look at what that future might look like – and it’s electric.

Bentley fascinates the masses at Monterey Car Week
Bentley, like almost every other car brand, is constantly seeking to grow and develop its range and its appeal.
And nowhere in the world was that more obvious last week than in Monterey, California.
The week-long event saw the entire car world converge on California to see the latest and greatest unveiled.
And Britain’s luxury marque ended up being one of the headline acts with the unveiling of what could be its first-ever electric vehicle.
It is called the Bentley EXP 15 – and it is, to put it simply, an absolute stunner.
The concept car is a three-door, three-seat grand tourer – and it pays homage to a special Bentley.
It specifically references the iconic 1930 Speed Six Gurney Nutting ‘Blue Train’ Sportsman coupé.
Could EXP 15 be a glimpse into Bentley’s EV future?
Sadly, this EXP 15 concept EV isn’t actually an intended design for full-scale production.
Instead, it serves as ‘a design vision for the future’ while providing ideas as to what future Bentley models could look like.
It is especially important in this regard because it could provide a big piece of evidence as to what the marque’s first-ever electric vehicle might actually look like.
The EXP 15 itself is absolutely massive, measuring over five meters in length.
It features a modern, light technology-enabled interpretation of the marque’s iconic upright front grille.
Inside, the concept car features an extremely innovative, three-seater layout, whilst also including tailgate seating.
Like many other things, this is in homage to the Speed Six Gurney Nutting Sportsman, or ‘Blue Train’.
Interestingly, the seats can rotate and swivel, allowing you to step out of the car with grace.
What do you think of the EXP 15 concept car?
Could a future electric model take direct inspiration from the marque’s past?
