Bentley Motors is a quintessentially British luxury automaker, in the middle of reinventing itself with its first SUV model previewed by the EXP 9 F concept. The vehicle is making the round in the major motor show circuit and will land straight in the middle of Pebble Beach this year for its North American debut.
Joining this concept will be another all-wheel drive Bentley, which is in fact the fastest car they’ve ever built. Yes, the Continental GT is also making its North American debut at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Interested buyers will likely be able to order it there, with deliveries taking place in October.

This normal-looking coupe has 12 cylinders, 616 horsepower and a 0 to 60 mph (96 km/h) sprint of 4 seconds flat.

“Pebble Beach and the spectacular scenery of the Monterey Peninsula provide the perfect venue for automotive connoisseurs and enthusiasts from around the world to display and celebrate the very best of motoring,” said Christophe Georges, president & COO of Bentley Motors, Inc. “It also serves as an ideal backdrop for Bentley to showcase not only its latest production model, the Continental GT Speed, but also, with the EXP 9 F SUV concept, to provide a glimpse into Bentley’s future.”
