Hedley begins production of first road-legal artwork

Following the completion of a joint sign-off event, Hedley Studios has begun production of its first road-legal, driveable piece of automotive artwork: The Bentley Blower Jnr.

Designed and developed in conjunction with Bentley, the Blower Jnr is an 85% scale recreation of the 1929 Bentley Blower and has now completed 18 months of on-road testing to refine and prove the design.

A range of curated style packs provide a baseline for the Bentley Blower Jnr's personalisation, making each example a truly unique piece of automotive artwork

With narrow roads, an island-wide speed limit of 64km/h, and a total area of 72km, Jersey - the largest of the Channel Islands and where the final sign-off took place - was the perfect place for a smaller-scale EV to complete its development journey.

Covering over 1,046km across three days, the completion of these test drives marks an important step in the Bentley Blower Jnr's development as production of customer models gets underway. Utilising meticulous, hand-crafting techniques, Hedley Studios' team of artisans will hand-beat the panels of the Bentley Blower Jnr's bodywork, while expert engineers assemble the fully electric 48V powertrain.

Only 349 examples of the Bentley Blower Jnr will go into production, with prospective owners able to customise their commission to their own individual style. Hedley Studios' team will work closely with each client to curate a Blower Jnr that is bespoke to their taste, from specific colour finishes to a choice of racing number.
