    Now that would be an accomplishment. What platform is it based on ? It looks very Range Rover Sport to me.

    Re: Bentley SUV concept revealed

    I believe the internal platform is probably a Bentley GT platform, but more interesting is that the exterior is an homage to the 1960 Studebaker Lark.

    OMG ... that is a vision of ugliness. Definitely a bad day at the office for the design team.

    Would VW let Bentley use their own platform? This 'thing' has to be build on the current Cayenne one.

    Re: Bentley SUV concept revealed

    This car will be a big hit in the emerging markets and the Middle East. The falcon in the video is very Gulf states.

    The shape? All manufacturers make their SUVs to look like their other cars, so the Bentley shape was very predictable.

    Sooooo true, I thought i was the only one who noticed it Smiley

    Although i'm a huge fan of the GT line, The SUV is just nasty. I prefer the rendered pics that were flouting around the net than this 'Gody' design

    you can't mix traditional Bentley luxo-saloon design elements and a SUV, its like using an XXXL size model to showcase female lingerie, just doesn't look the same indecision
