The concept is a British interpretation of a high performance two seater sportscar.
From the racing success of the company’s early years to the international motorsport success of today, ‘speed’ is part of Bentley’s DNA.
This inspiration is expressed throughout the EXP 10 Speed 6, where iconic Bentley design cues are fused with progressive craftsmanship techniques and modern technologies.
Copper elements are used as accents to both exterior and interior features to highlight the performance hybrid potential of the concept’s advanced new powertrain.
“EXP 10 Speed 6 is one vision for Bentley’s future – a powerful, exquisite and individual concept. The showcar has the potential to be the new pinnacle luxury two-seat sports car," said Bentley Motors chairman and chief executive Wolfgang Durheimer.
"It could be a future model line, alongside the Continental GT and redefining the pinnacle of another market sector, and the styling of the EXP 10 Speed 6 could influence the expansion of the Bentley family. This is not just a new sports car concept – but the potential Bentley sports car,” he added.
In the cabin, two elegant quilted sports seats are positioned either side of the narrow centre console which houses exquisite driver controls and a highly intuitive 12-inch touch screen.
The classic and purposeful Bentley knurled surface is a feature throughout the controls of the car, but now created using steel and copper together to create a two-metal 3D texture.
The doors of EXP 10 Speed 6 feature 3D quilting, milled directly in to solid straight-grain cherry wood.
Each resulting diamond is finished with a copper centre.
The rear interior space is divided into two compartments designed to house a specifically designed four-piece luggage set.
Like the rest of the interior, the rear has been trimmed by the master craftsmen at Bentley in the highest quality Poltrona Frau leather.
