My dad was German and worked for VW for 53 years; Volkswagen have always considered Bentley a true asset. They gave Bentley a totally blank cheque and knew the prowess of their engineering and design. The GT in 2003 was actually in development a few years before the VW takeover. Bentley produced engines for Audi and VW for a long time, and unlike RR, everything is produced in crew by Bentley. Sure; the CPUs and indicator stalks may be from Audi but that’s hardly a bad thing.
As an owner of a Mulsanne, I truly admire the character and the handbuilt aspect of the car but at the same time that is its biggest weakness, I've had so many issues with it throughout the years, however, I ordered a Benteyga in the same color combo as the Mulsanne just so I can have that connection with it, I think Bentley sharing platforms and parts with Audi is the best decision they have made, financially but also for the customer ownership.
I would be happy if I could afford a Honda Civic SI but if I could afford an ultra luxury car I would choose a Bentley over a RR or a Maybach. Beautiful cars.
@@SaltyAntelope63 well it depends what you define as a luxury car. Some people say Audi isnt even luxury. And Some people say even something like gmc is luxury.
I was looking for this comment. They are beautiful cars, but how are so many people able to afford one? My pay was cut at the beginning the pandemic and I feel fortunate to have been able to pay for my base model Jetta, rent and food
This is kind of scary. In the late 1920s companies that made ultra high-end cars were killing it & making special editions that are worth what millions in today's money and it was one of the early warning for the dirty 30s.
A financial catastrophe like the Great Depression could never happen again, because everything happens so much faster today. So it will be over before it becomes a major problem.
Even though a sedan would be my first choice because I have a family, the continental GT is sweet. I saw 👀 one at the airport parked in the same color in this video and have never seen brake rotors that beautiful. Yes, the car looked good period, but the rotors were detailed so well it looked like pure platinum shining. The interiors are outstanding as well.
They seem great but you gotta think... most people driving them have had to sacrifice a lot to get where they are. I think the sweetspot is being upper middle class and enjoying an M2 or something
"Bentley had a record year while others struggled in 2020" "Rich people got richer while common folks got poorer in 2020" The rich profited off the pandemic and we lost lives and money because of it.

Bentley's are nice and very expensive cars, but talking about driving characteristics rather than comfort and luxury makes little sense in relation to, for example, the Porsche Panamera (which otherwise shares the MSB platform, some engines and the driveline with Bentleys).
So in other words: Bentley’s success during this time of economic woes is mirroring what economists have been saying, during this pandemic the rich got richer.
Americans 745 billionaires gained 2.1 trillion since the start of the pandemic, raising their wealth to 5.1 trillion. The bottom 60% of American households owns 3 trillion 😃

EVs are so much simpler than combustion, I’m not sure why people think any automaker will struggle to make an EV. Removing the engine and all of the associated components and replacing them with a copper wound motor and fat battery. The problem up to right now with EVs is universally holding all EVs back. The batteries right now offers limited range when reasonably compared to internal combustion engines, and are excessively expensive, a replacement battery for a Tesla is $22,000. The battery used right now in EVs are sensitive to heat which reduces the batteries ability t hold electrons and shorten the vehicles range. In case you didn’t know, the range on EVs right now decreases over time. So where the range began at say 240 miles/charge will soon be 200 miles/charge. Many people have no reason to change to an "affordable" $40,000 base model electric car. Gas savings is relative to several factors and gas is an expense that hits over time and doesn’t accrue interest during financing.

I think that Bentley is an amazing brand. What I love most is that depending on the speck, they can be very subtle while allowing owners to ride in peace and comfort, without looking ostentatious. A non-window tint Bentayga, with normal wheels, in a beige or white, looks so classy. They are pimped out by beings of lower class tastes, but a true Bently is subtle, yet superbly luxurious
Nice idea, but the Bentley Bentayga Hybrid is no longer available in the US market after only a few years. It had so many problems and complaints from buyers, that many were taken back by the company. The Colorado dealer turned me away, saying that although they were receiving one, it wasn't' to be sold and was being shipped back to the factory.

The new Range Rover blew Bentley and the rest out of the water (when it comes to SUV). But Bentley is #1 in GT’s and sedans and has one of the best interiors in the game!
Haha , the CEO basically said the brand's electrification is a "green wash," to make the customers feel less guilty spending so much money. Whatever it takes I guess.
No, that is incorrect. Greenwashing is giving the false impression that your company and its products are environmentally sound, when they are not. What Bentley is actually doing is going carbon neutral and converting their lineup to becoming net zero carbon. That is the very opposite of greenwashing...
The new bentayga taillight is a huge turnoff imo. It suited the continental but not the bentayga. Being priced more than the G wagon. It's a tough sell
"If you want an extraordinarily overpriced car of mediocre build quality and poor reliability, and wish to lose approximately 80% of its original value in the first 5 years of ownership, a Bentley just might be for you!"
I think you’re describing Jaguar and Land Rover. Most Bentleys are VWs underneath, which are still bad, but not as much as you think. Jaguar and Land Rover are like the modern British Leyland 😅
You have never owned one or knew someone that has owned one my friends 2007 W12 GT is going strong and his dads 2019 Continental GT W12 hasnt had any problems oh and "Mediocre build quality" says that you have never sat in one.
@@RealNameNeverUsed Haha. Many people don't know that Toyota began as a textile/loom business. They still are in the textile business. Part of the Lexus LFA's carbon fibre tub were weaved together by the world's only carbon circular loom machine built and used by Toyota.
@@electrikoptik no one buys Bentley for reliability,they buy Bentley for luxury, performance and technology,if you worry about Bentley maintenance costs then you cannot afford it at the first place,Bentley isn’t targeting mainstream brands they are a luxury brand for people who can afford their vehicles
The day Bentley goes fully electric is when the brand dies, the power plant is what makes a Bentley a Bentley, look at the years Bentley was under Rolls-Royce and using Rolls-Royce engines, Bentley sales flat lined, so I can't see Bentley being around after they go full electric and the same goes for Ferrari
Actually up to 80% of all Bentleys ever made are still in the road today, your statement might be correct about the new ones today but the old ones actually retain value pretty well.
Toyota fanboys back at it again compensating using their “reliability” to act all superior You don’t buy a Bentley for reliability,you buy Bentley for technology,performance,luxury and craftsmanship
Nope. Keeping the power train simple and reliable while keeping the interior and driving world class will be far superior than dealing with the endless ghosts and gremlins of the Bentley power trains. There is a reason you can get a 2011 Bentley Flying Spur in mint condition and only 32k miles for just north of $50k. No one wants to deal with the engine issues and power train reliability which is notoriously bad...
If you aren't a lover of machines, and haven't ridden in or driven a Bentley then you can't understand. There is no comparison between the aesthetic of the Austin-Jaguar-Bentley and the German cars.
@@alejandrocanela691 You clearly haven't had to pay 10k a year in maintenance costs on a supercar that you rarely drive. For those of us that have, we don't consider reliability a problem. ;). Jaguars are as reliable as lexus since 2000, and Bentley's don't have any consistent problems other than it's a high performance engine that's a bit hard to work on, and the suspension like all air suspensions (see Land Rover) are fragile. Some common minor electrical issues. And parts are ABSURDLY EXPENSIVE. A used bentley is one of the best buys on the market. A used jaguar is even better than a used seven series and 100x more reliable.
One more thing. Get in a Bentley. In the rear seats. With someone else driving. Take off your shoes. Feel the deep wool carpeting with your toes. Drop the tray. Pour a drink. Then ride for a few hours on the highway. Make a few calls. Do a little laptop work. It's like being in comfy leather chair in front of a fireplace in the library. sigh.... ;). And your can ignore your phone, your executive assistant can't pop her head into your office, and you have a good excuse for not taking a meeting ;) Flawless. Same reason you buy a yacht. Except cheaper.

I was close to getting a used GT but the thought of repairs made me crap in my pants literally. I felt I was way over my head and backed away from the deal so I'm with you!
I think Bentley is successful because unlike Rolls Royce it hasn't forgotten its traditional customers in the undignified scramble for new money. Rolls Royce does things now that the original company would never even have considered. They actually turned down commissions to do what they considered vulgar. Now with Rolls Royce there is no limit to the vulgar possibilities. No one with taste would want a starlight roof or any of the other twinkly bits they do. They wouldn't want inlays of diamonds. I'm a traditional Rolls Royce driver. I've had my 1965 Silver Cloud, as the second owner, for 39 years. Nothing in the current Rolls Royce range would make me give up my old faithful friend, but now that the Mulsanne is no more, I'm giving serious thought to a Flying Spur.
Will the uber wealthy who drive these machines still want an electric Bentley when they are used to anything between twin-turbo 4liter V8s and 6liter V12s? I want to see how Bentley packages sustainability for this market segment.
I can answer as a recent owner. I just traded in my 12cyl Bentley Flying Spur last year and had planned Tesla roadster to be my next car so yes I’m big on electric. Since that Tesla still not available and not a fan of Taycan I bought a boring S class Mercedes for now but definitely want my next car to be electric
@@ihmpall I love the specs and performance of the Plaid S, the issue is the car looks like a $25k Honda Accord, love Tesla but their design so basic which is why I put down a deposit on Roadster as soon as I saw it
Making a profit in the luxury niche is something not everyone managed to do, see the Maybach brand which was a huge loss of money (nowadays the brand is just used for luxury cars rolling off the regular production line of Mercedes-Benz). Going fully electric and gliding noiselessly around with enormous torque when needed is something that will work very well when you look for luxury transportation. Producing goods of long life means they will still be around many decades from now. In terms of sustainability that is a good thing, you only have to build them now. However the progress cycle in electronics is much faster. What's top notch today will be outdated in a few years and replaced by something even better. So I hope Bentley doesn't just produce new cars but also keeps in mind the upgradability of their models. Future electric drivetrains will have more range, more power, more efficiency. The finely crafted exterior and interior of a vehicle produced today will still be good then, much too good to throw it away. But it should be possible to replace obsolete electronic components (and recycle them to recover all the rare and precious materials that went into their production). So that the investment into a luxury car in 2025 still pays out in 2050 or even 2075. I'm thinking of the Swiss railways (SBB CFF FFS) refurbishing their locomotives Re 460 built more than twenty years ago, keeping the mechanics but installing new and more efficient IGBT electronics, for a total lifetime of up to fifty years. Top notch mechanics can last for a remarkable lifetime, even when electronics get outdated, and upgradability (rather then completely having to replace the hardware) will be the sustainable solution to this.
I like the fact that a Bentley is more curvaceous than a Rolls Royce which to seems to be far too angular. It's as if it's a tank. I can't help imagining a Bentley owner as being the most pleasant of individuals too. Sagely nodding whilst they needlessly give way aggressive drivers. They also appear to have acquired their wealth through thrift and hard work - in a decent fashion and not through a debaucherous one. Unlike the image today's Rolls Royce owner - where there's something bit too Dubai about him and tacky. When I look down - from a Victoria bound bus, at a customised Rolls Royce which is parked outside of the Dorchester Hotel. The word "Carpet bagger" is the first thing that comes to mind.

@@yourgooglemeister6745 man there is NO way you confusing anyone when they see that huge ass B on the front of the hood. lol
The new Range Rover blew Bentley and the rest out of the water (when it comes to SUV). But Bentley is #1 in GT’s and sedans and has one of the best interiors in the game!
Haha , the CEO basically said the brand's electrification is a "green wash," to make the customers feel less guilty spending so much money. Whatever it takes I guess.
No, that is incorrect. Greenwashing is giving the false impression that your company and its products are environmentally sound, when they are not. What Bentley is actually doing is going carbon neutral and converting their lineup to becoming net zero carbon. That is the very opposite of greenwashing...
Great info. Thanx. I’ve always loved Bentley cars
Man I’d be so thrilled about an electric Bentayga
So the Bentley badge stitching is done on a Toyota machine?
The new bentayga taillight is a huge turnoff imo. It suited the continental but not the bentayga. Being priced more than the G wagon. It's a tough sell
its a Bentley my man. Of course it's more expensive than a overpriced G wagon
Agreed I miss the B taillights it made it unique!!!
@@adx1885 when in reality, its just an audi q7
The grill Is plastic on the benteqyga. Get a g wagon instead of an overpriced audi q7
"If you want an extraordinarily overpriced car of mediocre build quality and poor reliability, and wish to lose approximately 80% of its original value in the first 5 years of ownership, a Bentley just might be for you!"
I think you’re describing Jaguar and Land Rover. Most Bentleys are VWs underneath, which are still bad, but not as much as you think. Jaguar and Land Rover are like the modern British Leyland 😅
@@devandrasimanjuntak1646 No, I'm describing Bentley...AND Jaguar and LR...and a few others.
All I heard was you're too poor to afford one.
You definitely never owned one and you dont know what you spoutin here on YT 🤦♂️
You have never owned one or knew someone that has owned one my friends 2007 W12 GT is going strong and his dads 2019 Continental GT W12 hasnt had any problems oh and "Mediocre build quality" says that you have never sat in one.
Interesting but pricy. I'll stick to my Toyota haha
Your Toyota will actually hold its value better than the Bentley not to mention heck more reliable.
Bentleys depreciate like meteors 🤦♂️
0:01 Is that your Toyota?
@@RealNameNeverUsed Haha. Many people don't know that Toyota began as a textile/loom business. They still are in the textile business. Part of the Lexus LFA's carbon fibre tub were weaved together by the world's only carbon circular loom machine built and used by Toyota.
@@electrikoptik no one buys Bentley for reliability,they buy Bentley for luxury, performance and technology,if you worry about Bentley maintenance costs then you cannot afford it at the first place,Bentley isn’t targeting mainstream brands they are a luxury brand for people who can afford their vehicles
Can you also show metric measurements please?
The day Bentley goes fully electric is when the brand dies, the power plant is what makes a Bentley a Bentley, look at the years Bentley was under Rolls-Royce and using Rolls-Royce engines, Bentley sales flat lined, so I can't see Bentley being around after they go full electric and the same goes for Ferrari
0:01 Toyota stitching machine used in Bentley manufacturing process.
The Idea of EV currently is unappealing
A Bentley is an excellent idea USED, after 70% depreciation……with deep pockets for maintenance and poor reliability. I’ll keep my Lexus LC500, thanks!
Actually up to 80% of all Bentleys ever made are still in the road today, your statement might be correct about the new ones today but the old ones actually retain value pretty well.
Also the LC500 is pretty cool too
Facts one of the few cars that sort of hold their value.
Toyota fanboys back at it again compensating using their “reliability” to act all superior
You don’t buy a Bentley for reliability,you buy Bentley for technology,performance,luxury and craftsmanship
Its a status thing. Lexus is just another japanese car with zero status
Gas powered Bentleys will always be worth more than electric ones. Like analog watches.
Like a sweet automatic😏⌚
Nope. Keeping the power train simple and reliable while keeping the interior and driving world class will be far superior than dealing with the endless ghosts and gremlins of the Bentley power trains.
There is a reason you can get a 2011 Bentley Flying Spur in mint condition and only 32k miles for just north of $50k. No one wants to deal with the engine issues and power train reliability which is notoriously bad...
If you aren't a lover of machines, and haven't ridden in or driven a Bentley then you can't understand. There is no comparison between the aesthetic of the Austin-Jaguar-Bentley and the German cars.
What about reliability? Lol
@@alejandrocanela691 You clearly haven't had to pay 10k a year in maintenance costs on a supercar that you rarely drive. For those of us that have, we don't consider reliability a problem. ;).
Jaguars are as reliable as lexus since 2000, and Bentley's don't have any consistent problems other than it's a high performance engine that's a bit hard to work on, and the suspension like all air suspensions (see Land Rover) are fragile. Some common minor electrical issues. And parts are ABSURDLY EXPENSIVE. A used bentley is one of the best buys on the market. A used jaguar is even better than a used seven series and 100x more reliable.
One more thing. Get in a Bentley. In the rear seats. With someone else driving. Take off your shoes. Feel the deep wool carpeting with your toes. Drop the tray. Pour a drink. Then ride for a few hours on the highway. Make a few calls. Do a little laptop work. It's like being in comfy leather chair in front of a fireplace in the library. sigh.... ;).
And your can ignore your phone, your executive assistant can't pop her head into your office, and you have a good excuse for not taking a meeting ;)
Flawless.
Same reason you buy a yacht.
Except cheaper.
@@TheNaturalLawInstitute yeah thats why jaguar is doing so well and top the reliability surveys and charts
@@peterambrose2148 Sorry. I was trying to compare equals. I should have said 'before the crash'. As soon as ford bought them quality went up. late 90's early 00's xj's are amazing. after the management panic and certainly recently it's been a problem again.
Bentley's are all over Vegas so I don't think that they are all that exclusive. Im not hating, I would love that big sedan!
I can't believe I spent 15 minutes of my life watching Bentley advertisement which I can't afford only cause UA-cam strongly recommended it. 😏
So people want luxury cars but want electric/hybrid. Good choice

You forgot the Mulsanne 🙄🙄🙄🙄
No longer built sadly
I have driven a Bentley, I have driven a Lexus, and I have driven a Toyota. I still have the Lexus and Toyota, but the Bentley had to be sold in a few years due to recurring electronic issues, seriously sub par electronics.

Does your report have a point or is it just combining random information?
Welcome to CNBC
Would love to have a Continental GT but the maintenance cost is killing the deal for me….
I was close to getting a used GT but the thought of repairs made me crap in my pants literally. I felt I was way over my head and backed away from the deal so I'm with you!
Masterpiece lmao.. putting a starter INSIDE the transmission is nothing but that.
Play at 1.25x speed
Thanks dude ! Video has interesting information but it was getting very slow
I'd rather have a Tesla. But I will say those old Bentleys look amazing.
I think when the roads become full of EV cars I think people might want different ones not just Tesla’s
A tesla has an interior made from old wheely bins
I think Bentley is successful because unlike Rolls Royce it hasn't forgotten its traditional customers in the undignified scramble for new money. Rolls Royce does things now that the original company would never even have considered. They actually turned down commissions to do what they considered vulgar. Now with Rolls Royce there is no limit to the vulgar possibilities. No one with taste would want a starlight roof or any of the other twinkly bits they do. They wouldn't want inlays of diamonds. I'm a traditional Rolls Royce driver. I've had my 1965 Silver Cloud, as the second owner, for 39 years. Nothing in the current Rolls Royce range would make me give up my old faithful friend, but now that the Mulsanne is no more, I'm giving serious thought to a Flying Spur.
The world just achieved record levels of carbon emissions.
Let's get more V12s out there.
Bentley, when you want to be chauffeured & drive in style.
You ain’t nothing!
@@mastercreamer1398 your mama
An injection of youth and sportiness did wonders.
I'll never afford it, but I've always loved the look of the Continental GT ever since I saw it growing up.
Surely there's a way to fix up those heinous headlights

17 billion ways to customize a Bentley Continental GT 😱
My Bank account 👁👄👁 do it !
Bentley is smart and they have just stated smartening up. At a million subs I should do a Bentley give away.
The most basic Bentley SUV is about $170k, that’s not too bad.
Thats a huge bargain.
So Bentley is kinda like a body builder went classy.
Will the uber wealthy who drive these machines still want an electric Bentley when they are used to anything between twin-turbo 4liter V8s and 6liter V12s?
I want to see how Bentley packages sustainability for this market segment.
How else? In a $250,000 package the same as always.
I can answer as a recent owner. I just traded in my 12cyl Bentley Flying Spur last year and had planned Tesla roadster to be my next car so yes I’m big on electric. Since that Tesla still not available and not a fan of Taycan I bought a boring S class Mercedes for now but definitely want my next car to be electric
Have you seen how fast model plaid is ? Faster than any v8s
@@ihmpall I have. But the owners of 250 grand luxury super sedans don't buy them for speed. They have Huracans and Bugattis for that I think.
@@ihmpall I love the specs and performance of the Plaid S, the issue is the car looks like a $25k Honda Accord, love Tesla but their design so basic which is why I put down a deposit on Roadster as soon as I saw it

seems like lot of the SBA EIDL went to Bentley with regards to sales number
Making a profit in the luxury niche is something not everyone managed to do, see the Maybach brand which was a huge loss of money (nowadays the brand is just used for luxury cars rolling off the regular production line of Mercedes-Benz).
Going fully electric and gliding noiselessly around with enormous torque when needed is something that will work very well when you look for luxury transportation.
Producing goods of long life means they will still be around many decades from now. In terms of sustainability that is a good thing, you only have to build them now.
However the progress cycle in electronics is much faster. What's top notch today will be outdated in a few years and replaced by something even better.
So I hope Bentley doesn't just produce new cars but also keeps in mind the upgradability of their models. Future electric drivetrains will have more range, more power, more efficiency. The finely crafted exterior and interior of a vehicle produced today will still be good then, much too good to throw it away. But it should be possible to replace obsolete electronic components (and recycle them to recover all the rare and precious materials that went into their production). So that the investment into a luxury car in 2025 still pays out in 2050 or even 2075.
I'm thinking of the Swiss railways (SBB CFF FFS) refurbishing their locomotives Re 460 built more than twenty years ago, keeping the mechanics but installing new and more efficient IGBT electronics, for a total lifetime of up to fifty years.
Top notch mechanics can last for a remarkable lifetime, even when electronics get outdated, and upgradability (rather then completely having to replace the hardware) will be the sustainable solution to this.
Can't Afford, Dont Care. 💎

Wonderful automotive history which I love! Such an icon
Yeah, I’m not sure the people who can afford a Bentley were affected too much by Covid
Dropping from Mid 50's to Mid 40's of Bentley buyers in average age is insane. Considering nobody under 18 effectively buys these(There are outliers).
Somethings not right
Buy em while you can!! Electric is on the way!!
I like the fact that a Bentley is more curvaceous than a Rolls Royce which to seems to be far too angular. It's as if it's a tank.
I can't help imagining a Bentley owner as being the most pleasant of individuals too. Sagely nodding whilst they needlessly give way aggressive drivers. They also appear to have acquired their wealth through thrift and hard work - in a decent fashion and not through a debaucherous one.
Unlike the image today's Rolls Royce owner - where there's something bit too Dubai about him and tacky.
When I look down - from a Victoria bound bus, at a customised Rolls Royce which is parked outside of the Dorchester Hotel. The word "Carpet bagger" is the first thing that comes to mind.
