Bentley is set to revolutionize its brand with the introduction of a new Ultra Performance Hybrid powertrain, which will replace the iconic W12 engine. This cutting-edge V8 hybrid system promises to deliver unprecedented levels of power, efficiency, and responsiveness for Bentley’s future supercars.nnThe Ultra Performance Hybrid represents a significant leap in Bentley’s engineering prowess, combining an exceptionally powerful combustion engine with sophisticated hybrid technology. With over 750 PS output and an electric range of 50 miles (80 km), this system not only surpasses the performance capabilities of the W12 but also offers a more sustainable driving experience with CO2 emissions under 50 g/km on the WLTP drive cycle.nnAs Bentley prepares to bid farewell to its celebrated 6.0-litre twin-turbo W12 engine this summer—a powerhouse that has been at the heart of approximately 105,000 vehicles over two decades—the company is gearing up for a new era where electrification takes center stage. The upcoming Ultra Performance Hybrid aims to redefine luxury performance vehicles by delivering both thrilling soundscapes and silent electric modes.nnFurther details about this transformative powertrain are expected in the coming weeks as part of Bentley’s Beyond 100 strategy, which envisions offering all models with hybrid options. In anticipation of this shift towards electrification, enthusiasts can still acquire some of the last remaining W12 and non-hybrid V8 engines through Bentley’s global retail network.nnFor additional information or inquiries:nMike SayernHead of Product CommunicationsnEmail: mike.sayer@bentley.co.uknPhone: +44(0)7507 846782nnJonathan SmedleynProduct Communications ManagernEmail: jonathan.smedley@bentley.co.uknPhone: +44(0)7958 058427nnBentley Motors Ltd,nPyms Lane,nCrewe,nCW1 3PL.nWebsite: www.bentleymedia.com nEmail: communications@bentley.co.uk nTwitter: @BentleyNewsroom & @BentleyComms
