Bentley SUV Plug-in Hybrid Video Teaser Previews 2016 Model

By Ganesh

Bentley's first ever SUV, which is also going to be plug-in hybrid model, is only going to be launched in 2016, but the company has already started giving us glimpses of the vehicle.

The first teaser image came in March, when Bentley revealed the revised design for its SUV from the original EXP-9 Concept SUV. Seen in the images below, the new design gets a new face, with repositioned headlamps and grille design.

Don't blink because you might miss glimpses of the SUV's wheels, a unique side mesh strake that's shaped like the letter ‘B' and a few other elements of the vehicle.

The release of the teaser video now leads us to believe that Bentley plans to reveal a pre-production model in the near future, likely at the Paris Auto Show later this year.

As for the hybrid powertrain, it will most definitely be the 631 bhp, 6.75-litre V8 hybrid powertrain from the recently revealed Bentley Mulsanne Hybrid Concept. Bentley could also launch a non-hybrid SUV powered by the brand's 6.0-liter twin-turbo W12.
