The marque originally planned to debut the EV in 2025.
The news comes directly from Bentley CEO Adrian Hallmark. The executive told the publication that the delay will just be a “matter of months” as opposed to a full year. The marque still intends to reveal the car in 2025, but it won’t go on sale until the next year. He also said the schedule change doesn’t have anything to do with the software delays that are currently hampering Audi’s Artemis project, which the all-electric Bentley will be a part of.
The vehicle is now expected to be a coupé, according to the weekly newspaper. Little else is known about the model, except that it could boast up to 1,400 hp and that at least one variant will cost in excess of $250,000.Whether the delay ends up being a “matter of months” or a full year, it still leaves Bentley having to make up ground on the competition.
