Bentley Motors is pushing back its plans to transition to all-electric vehicles by a couple of years amid changes in market conditions and a delay in its first EV.
Bentley Motors is pushing back its plans to exclusively offer all-electric vehicles by the end of this decade due to changing market conditions and a delay in its first EV. The company now expects its first EV to be released in 2026, pushing back the release of the subsequent vehicles as well.The delay in Bentley's first all-electric vehicle was the result of software issues as well as difficulty with developing the vehicle's architecture to Bentley's standards, according to Hallmark. He said those challenges were the primary driver behind delaying its EV plans, rather than the changing market conditions.
