A competitor for the Mercedes CLS63 AMG and BMW M6 Gran Coupe would Bentley have to help to a little extra market share. In 2018 would be the four-door coupe around have to drive.

After the then rather shocking announcement of the Bentley SUV in 2015 on the market, reach us now signals that there is a four-door coupe in the making is that under the current model line is positioned going to be. This car would have to go to compete with the CLS63 AMG and the M6 Gran Coupe.

The car would be about 4.8 meters long, as large as the Continental GT but then, so with two extra doors. The new Bentley would must be built on the MSB platform, the same platform where the new Panamera in 2015. Porsche will also be the new generation of V-engines for the Volkswagen group, where it is expected that for Bentley a 3.0 V6 and a derived 4.0 V8 will produce. The MSB structure also gives the option of both rear wheel if four-wheel drive versions to achieve. The MSB structure could in the future also as a base for the Mulsanne, Azure, Brooklands and Contintal GT III. that last would be due to the use of this new platform up to 450 kilograms (!) lighter should be able.

If you want an ultimate nightmare scenario? The MSB platform offers a huge wide range of motors, from W12 to viercilinders. Can you imagine, a four-cylinder Bentley? We also do not and will temporarily not happen, but still, the idea is… A name for the new four-door coupe is not yet called, do you have ideas?
