Bentley EXP 9 F Concept 2012

he Bentley EXP 9 F is a concept car produced by Bentley and first shown to the public at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, and is Bentley's first ever SUV.

The EXP 9 F is powered by a re-engineered version of the existing 6.0-litre petrol W12 engine but will also be available with a V8 diesel engine or a V6-based plug-in hybrid powertrain. The concept seats four.

The concept was developed by Bentley's Crewe based design department and was designed by Dirk van Braeckel. It is based on the same platform used in the other Volkswagen Group large SUVs including the next Audi Q7, Porsche Cayenne, Volkswagen Touareg and to be released Lamborghini Urus.

And some new released rolling images! Still doesn't look good if you ask me :cool:

Bearing in mind the chintzy detailing, it's not bad... for an SUV.

The pictures showing it driving just next to a paved road are to show the pointlessness of the concept ??.... :(

probably it was on its way to be permanently redesigned...

I actually like it, even if it is very overdone (got to lose the wheels and those "turbine" openings in the front). Then again, concept cars generally tend to be overdone.
