“This is excellent news for Bentley and for the UK. Bentley is increasingly successful and this new fourth model line will leverage the success of the global SUV market. The support of everyone involved with the Company has been fundamental to this decision, which will ensure sustainable growth for the company,” stated Dr. Wolfgang Schreiber, Bentley’s Chairman and Chief Executive.

The EXP 9 F concept was first shown at the Geneva Auto Show with massive 23” alloy wheels, Bentley’s signature grille, a powerful 6-liter W12 engine coupled with an 8-speed transmission, and luxuriant tailgating fit for the Royal Family.
