Hybrid Vehicles
Bentley Hybrid Vehicles From slow charging at home to rapid charging on the road, there are many EV and PHEV charging solutions. This page will help you find the most practical solution for your needs.
Bentley Hybrid Technology Bentley’s journey into an electric future continues. The introduction of hybrid technology is an important stage on that journey, with a range of hybrid vehicles now available. In the years ahead, Bentley will reveal its first fully electric vehicle, making the shift to an all-electric line-up by 2030. Below, you can read more about the hybrid models available now, as well as the innovative hardware and software that powers the Bentley hybrid experience. Bentley’s hybrid technology is designed to give you smooth and silent progress through city streets, as well as the power and range you need for long, luxurious drives. According to research, the majority of Bentley customers’ journeys can be achieved using battery power only. In fact, almost all first-generation Bentayga Hybrid drivers use the vehicle’s EV mode, with around half regularly making journeys of less than 30 miles. So whether you mainly use your car for commuting, shopping or doing the school run, you can do so while keeping emissions to a minimum.
The Key Components The Bentley range currently offers two proven systems of hybrid technology – one created for the Bentayga and the other for the Flying Spur. By combining efficient petrol engines with advanced electric motors, they offer the engaging drive and long range associated with Bentley’s petrol-only engines, alongside significantly lower emissions. This is hybrid technology without compromise. All hybrid Bentaygas are fitted with a 3.0 litre turbocharged V6 petrol engine, while hybrid Flying Spurs feature a 2.9 litre turbocharged V6 petrol engine. The battery and essential architecture of the hybrid system are the same. Housed between the gearbox and the petrol engine, the E Motor (a permanent magnet synchronous motor) delivers full torque instantly, minimising any delay that could result from turbocharger lag. The result is smooth, silent acceleration from a standing start – and the sense of effortless power for which all Bentleys are renowned. All cars are powered by a 18.0 kWh (usable) lithium ion battery that can be charged at a rate of 7.2kW/h, meaning it can be fully recharged in as little as two and a half hours, depending on the charging infrastructure available. Cars include all cables required in the country of delivery as standard, however you can also request a Bentley Charging Dock for neatly storing the cables and charge unit.

Driving Modes

The EV Drive mode is engaged the moment the car is switched on. Provided the battery is sufficiently charged, it should suffice for most everyday journeys.
Hybrid Mode combines data from the intelligent navigation system and a feature called predictive E-Mode and engine coasting to minimise emissions and fuel usage on longer journeys. With the navigation system activated, it enables the car to engage the correct mode for every stage of your journey automatically, constantly calculating the most efficient use of the available charge in the battery and storing it for the sections of the journey where it will be most useful, such as arriving in the city. By ensuring that the battery’s charge falls to zero just as you reach your destination, overall efficiency is maximised.
Hold Mode focuses on maintaining battery charge for later use, while relying primarily on the petrol engine for power. The default mode when the car’s Drive Dynamics control is set to Sport, Hold Mode also allows the car to recoup electric energy when braking.

Hybrid-Specific Services
With My Cabin Comfort, you can pre-programme your car to pre-heat or pre-cool the cabin to an optimum temperature of 22°C before you get in, at a time that suits you.
My Car Statistics on the My Bentley app provides vehicle data such as the times of recent trips, the distance of the last journey made, average speed, average travel time and average consumption of both petrol and electric power.
With the My Battery Charge feature, you can start charging your car remotely, provided it is connected to a suitable charger. If you enter your planned departure time, the system will automatically calculate the rate of charging required to ensure a full charge before you leave.

The My Bentley range of connected services is continually growing. As well as all the in-car and remote connected car services you would expect, from navigation with real-time traffic information and over-the-air map updates to a remote car finder and push notifications from the car’s alarm, there are numerous features designed specifically for Bentley hybrids. Many services can be accessed remotely via the My Bentley app, which is available both on Apple iOS and Android mobile platforms.
