Look Out Land Rover! Bentley CONFIRMS Plans For Future SUV

It’s all go for Bentley’s SUV. Boss Wolfgang Durheimer has reportedly confirmed the British luxury brand will enter the SUV sector for the first time, taking on the likes of Range Rover.

Durheimer is the former head of R&D at fellow VW Group brand Porsche, where he developed the Cayenne, and has repeatedly hinted that a Bentley SUV was under consideration. It appears that expansion plans are behind the decision, as Bentley must increase its product range to deal with lean economic times.

I can see this vehicle selling very well.

With so much doubt about the New Range Rover, I can imagine a lot of former Range Owners will gladly switch to the Bentley SUV.

This..... is ugly. Nothing as cool looking as the Land Rover. Besides that new Land Rover EVo and Range Rover sweet looking. It doesn't even look like this Bently can even handle off road as good as Land Rover. It looks like a weak crossover made for on road only.
