If everyone’s doing it, why shouldn’t we? That’s the train of thought Bentley seems to be in at the moment – the British luxury carmaker is looking at entering another segment and is targeting to build a luxury SUV, according to reports. The company hasn’t yet firmed up on things, but the reports say that its CEO, Wolfgang Duerheimer wants to build an off-road SUV and has discussed the matter with execs at Volkswagen, which owns the brand.
Duerheimer was once Porsche’s development chief and oversaw its move into SUV territory. The Cayenne has been a resounding success for the company from a business point of view – it currently accounts for half the company’s overall sales. No doubt, all this must be providing the inspiration for Bentley to venture down the same path – expect to hear more on this front developing in the future.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
…..except that they have missed the SUV boat.
Mark my words, its going to be another blinged up hybrid sold to rappers and basketball players only.
Bently car already more than 2 tonne. SUV, easily weight 3 tonne, gas guzzler.
Bentley should make a Porsche Boxster/Cayman-based supercar.
Ferrari FF is better than this Bentley SUV. V12 plus 4×4 for only 1.7 tonne.
Porsche Cayenne is getting common in Klang Valley, Bently SUV will definitely sell…
so many rich ppl at klang valley…buying cayenne as if it’s proton saga price
Bentley should make a Porsche Boxster-based supercar, and name it as ‘Bentley Speed Ten’.
That’s rebadged Porsche 918… But throws electric motors.
sure looks like a truck… Old man style.. but the most premium and most respectable!
I might prefer Ford F150 over this.
Yes Bentley ‘X6’, RM2.5million(4 x price of X6). Better be very elegant.
Should be very easy for Bentley since VW has some existing n proven platforms for SUVs.
Wheather a SUV wit a flying B in d front is acceptable to d market though will b s’thing worth speculating.
please no…………
What do u know, slowly all luxury cars have their own SUV.
When Porsche announce their SUV , everyone speculates its gonna be a total failure.
Look where they stand now? I think in Klang Valley they wonder around like cockroaches.
I bet Bentley will do much better. Love their design. Imagine being put on SUV. Must be the most handsome SUV on earth! :D
