    Bentley EV To Pack As Much as 1,400 HP And Hit 100 KM/H In 1.7 Seconds

    Bentley CEO Adrian Hallmark recently sat down with Automotive News Europe where he indicated that their first EV could arrive around 2025 with as much as 1,400 hp.

    “If we’re 650 hp now with GT Speed, we will be double that with the BEV,” Hallmark told the publication. “But from a 0 to 60 mph point of view, there are diminishing returns. The problem is, it’s uncomfortable. And then it just becomes nauseous.”

    Hallmark suggested that the driver could adjust the level of acceleration to suit them. “You can have 0-60 mph in 2.7 seconds. Or it can be switched to 1.5 seconds,” he said.

    This EV will ride on the PPE platform which will also be used for the Porsche Macan EV and Audi Q6 e-Tron.

    Styling-wise Hallmark mentioned that they will try their best for it not to look like a typical electric car.

    Considering the platform it will use and Hallmarks’ passion for SUVs then we are more than likely going to see a high-riding sedan of sorts.

    By 2030, Bentley intends to make only EVs, which means multiple models are on the way. “In terms of price point, one of the EVs will be more in that Mulsanne price range than anything that we have today. It has to be.” Hallmark added.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
