Bentley EXP 100 GT: An electric vision of luxury in 2035

Bentley Motors celebrates its 100th birthday. They decided to go all out with a concept car, named the EXP 100 GT, a two scissor-doored Grand tourer and it's a look at where Bentley wants to be in the year 2035. It's fully electric, has the full autonomous capability, and is draped in high-end materials and outrageous design. The design really is striking. Its carbon fiber and aluminum body is enormous at 19 feet long, yet it's just a two-door coupe. The massive mesh grille (made up of 6,000 LED bulbs), separated by a slim piece of copper, gives the front fascia an unmistakable expression.

Under the sizable, yet slinky skin is a fully electric powertrain. It features four motors, one for each wheel, to provide full torque vectoring. They deliver a lot of torque, too, at 1,106 pound-feet. Bentley says the EXP 100 GT should hit 60 mph in under 2.5 seconds and have a top speed of 186 mph. The battery pack can provide up to 435 miles of range and can be charged to 80% capacity in 15 minutes. Bentley has no plans to build the EXP 100 GT in its current form. But this radical concept serves as inspiration for Bentley design and technology moving forward.
