Even though this may not look like a regular Bentley
at first, it does sort of remind us of the EXP10 Concept, in a subtle way.
The design seems to follow the so-called "less
is more" philosophy, as the wide grille at the front is positioned almost
at wheel-level, giving the car a rather unique character - as do the chunky
pop-out rear wing and intricate rear diffuser.
Its designer, Ignacio Mallku, says that the Birkin
EV Sports Coupe would be part of Bentley's futuristic Sport Luxury segment,
meant to seat just two people. Unfortunately the cabin itself didn't get
sketched, but we can see the seats inside, thanks to those forward-sliding
doors being open in one of the images.
This concept was named after Tim Birkin, one of the
Bentley Boys from the 1920s, who managed to win at Le Mans twice during his
motorsport career.
