For the majority of automobile manufacturers, the realization of electrification transformation can already be said to be a nail in the coffin, so each manufacturer has also announced its own future electrification transformation plan. Recently, Bentley officially announced that it will launch a new electric model every year for five consecutive years starting in 2025 and will achieve carbon neutrality in 2030.

In addition to announcing plans for various new electric vehicles, Bentley has also announced that its first electric car will be developed and manufactured in the UK and is scheduled to go into production in 2025. According to Bentley's official account, the emergence of the first electric car will be an important moment in Bentley's long and glorious history, which is of great significance. In addition, Bentley plans to invest £2.5 billion (US$3.4 billion) in sustainability over the next decade. This will lead to a complete transformation of Bentley's entire product line. The funding will also transform the company's Crewe plant into "the world's leading next-generation digital, low-pollution, high-value, advanced manufacturing facility."

Although 2025 is still 3 years away, Bentley has already started its electrification process. They say they are leading the way in the "luxury hybrid" space and will further consolidate that position by launching five derivatives based on existing models, including the Flying Spur Hybrid and the Bentayga Hybrid, in 2022. According to the company's previously announced plan, it will stop production of pure fuel vehicles from 2026 and only produce pure electric and hybrid models.
