07 Nov 2020|899 views
Bentley Motors has outlined plans to become a global leader in sustainable luxury mobility, with further details of its Beyond100 strategy.
With the promise to offer truly sustainable luxury, Bentley will reinvent every aspect of its business to become an end-to-end carbon neutral organisation as it embarks on its second century. The target is driven by a transformation programme across Bentley's entire operations and products.


The announcement highlights Bentley's plans to provide extraordinary mobility for the next century, evolving from the world's largest producer of 12-cylinder petrol engines to having no internal combustion engines within a decade, reinventing itself as a leader in sustainable luxury mobility.
The Beyond100 strategic plan is an extension of two decades of forward thinking, innovation and achievement. Acutely aware of the responsibility to consider its environmental, social and economic impact, Bentley has transformed its 80-year old headquarters into the U.K.'s single carbon neutral luxury car factory.
Bentley's aim to become an end-to-end carbon neutral luxury car brand by 2030 will be underpinned by a structured, business-wide sustainability programme. This includes the development of electrified models throughout the range, and further improvements on its operational environmental impact of its tier one supply chain and collaborating with its retailer network.


Following the introduction of the first Bentley fully electric model in 2025 - Bentley's first fully carbon neutral car - Bentley will exclusively offer plug-in hybrid and electric models only within its range in 2026. By 2030, this will change to battery electric vehicles only.
Bentley's electrified future was previewed with the reveal of the all-electric EXP 100 GT concept car in its centenary year, which also featured a multitude of sustainable materials. Bentley will continue to use only sustainably sourced materials throughout its current and next generation of cars.
in 2019, Bentley's facility in Crewe became the first luxury automotive factory in the U.K. to be certified carbon neutral by the Carbon Trust. The Crewe facility will continue to improve its environmental operations. By the end of 2020, all suppliers will have passed a sustainability audit, verifying their sustainability credentials.


As well as accelerating the product journey towards electrification, Beyond100 opens a new era for Bentley's bespoke division, Mulliner, which now has a three-portfolio structure comprising Mulliner Classic, Mulliner Collections and Mulliner Coachbuilt.
The recently revealed Bacalar signifies the start of this new age as the first member of the Mulliner Coachbuilt family and incorporates elements of the sustainable materials showcased in EXP 100 GT.
For 100 years, Bentley has defined grand touring. Maintaining the brand's reputation for delivering extraordinary customer journeys means appealing to existing and new luxury customers who seek socially acceptable brands, driven to be pioneers and role models of sustainability. Beyond100 places Bentley Motors firmly at the vanguard.
