Bentley's first EV is its fastest ever, and it looks like nothing else

Bentley finally let the covers slip off its first electric car back in July, and now we can actually see the thing. It's the fastest Bentley ever, which is a wild flex for a brand known more for wood veneer and wafting than for scaring your fillings loose. And it looks like nothing else they've made, which is saying something for a company that's been polishing the same grand tourer silhouette for decades. I'm genuinely curious about the shape, because it's not a swoopy coupe or a boxy SUV, it's somewhere in between. The spec sheet is still thin, so I'm not going to invent range figures or a price tag. But the real question, the one that launch video probably skipped, is what it actually feels like to drive.
