Bentley have today announced that their brand new SUV model will go on sale from 2016. The SUV which was recently given the green light last year after being displayed in a concept format has been given the name of the 'Bentayga'. The cost of the new SUV is said to be starting from around the £130,000 area and will be the first time that Bentley have ever offered a sports utility vehicle. Three ranges have been confirmed by Bentley to come along as a part of the package and the luxury car firm have stated that the vehicles will feature a V8,W12 and a hybrid powertrain. With the luxury car maker taking that leap into both SUV and electric vehicles, it is believed that the new 'Bentayga' will turn some heads and gather some sales in 2016.
Vauxhall deny an Adam VXR model
Vauxhall have been busy lately developing new VXR models which are more power focused versions of some of the biggest selling hatchbacks that the company have on offer. With the Adam S changing its name to the Grand Slam here in Britain, there were rumours circulating that the car could be next in line for the VXR treatment. Today though Vauxhall have put an end to those rumours by saying that there are no plans for an Adam VXR model to be made. Instead the company are looking at focusing their attention more on the likes of the Corsa and Astra which are both receiving the work. If you were hoping for an Adam VXR then these hopes have now been dashed sadly. They will release the new Grand Slam model later this year though which boasts some good steady power so that is certainly the one to keep an eye out for.
