A Compact Bentley Seriously Considered by the Brand

Carmakers all around the world now have considerable more interest in producing compact cars and try to foresee the development of this market.

The luxury line-up of Bentley might also be widened with a compact model. Company representatives have mentioned this possibility. They are unanimous in claiming that the car market came to the point of its development when no predictions can be a guarantee. However, Bentley seriously mulls over producing a compact. One should keep in mind that even a small car from the luxury brand will have a typically decent price tag.

World markets might be enriched by SUVs and modern hybrids from the British carmaker in the nearest future. Development of a compact car will take some time, so even if the decision to go small is approved, the release is hardly to be expected before 2019. Customers might find it rather unusual that Bentley will produce a city car. Besides, there are a lot of examples of similar launches proven to be failures: for instance, it was the case with Cygnet from Aston Martin.
