Revealed: Bentley planning two new models, one of which could be a 500bhp electric supercar

When do we get it: Um, hopefully at some point in the near future. Because neither of them exist. Yet.

What we say: “Bentley is exploring a 500bhp, all-electric two-seat sports car. According to CEO Wolfgang Durheimer, it’s one of two options on the table for the Crewe firm’s next offering, following the imminent launch of the big Bentayga SUV.

“The first option, said Durheimer, is “one taking the very best of Bentayga, and making an even more performance-enhanced version”. That’s the X6-style SUV-coupe we’ve told you about before, a Bentayga with a lower roof and, most likely, even more power and a sharper chassis. Sheesh.

“The other option? A production version of the lovely Speed 6 sports car, revealed in concept form at Geneva earlier this year.”
