The fastest-charging EV currently on sale in the UK is the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.autocar.co.uk\/car-review\/Lotus\/Emeya\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lotus Emeya<\/a>, which can accommodate speeds of up to 400kW.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, to achieve such a speed, it will need to use a capable charger. Average charger capacity in the UK is around 120kW, with just a handful able to provide faster rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the announcement on Wednesday, R&amp;D boss Matthias Rabe said the EV \u2013 of which its official name has yet to be announced \u2013 was \u201cvery comfortable like a Flying Spur and agile like a Continental GT\u201d while also possessing \u201cvery fast\u201d 0-100mph and 0-200mph times. He added that it will be \u201cthe best Bentley on the road\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it arrives, the unnamed newcomer will also be the shortest Bentley SUV on sale, at less than five metres long, and slot in underneath the Bentayga. Given its length, the EV has been configured to offer a \u201cgood turning radius\u201d, something that will be important to its \u201curban\u201dpositioning, said Rabe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Further platform details were not shared by the Crewe firm during the announcement last Wednesday, but as the EV will be based on a version of the Porsche- and Audi-developed PPE EV platform, its capabilities can be gauged by looking at the incoming Porsche Cayenne Electric.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new Cayenne is offered exclusively with dual-motor, four-wheel-drive powertrains putting out between 400bhp in the base car and 805bhp in the top-rung variant (rising to nearly 1000bhp with launch control). A 108kWh battery is estimated to supply a range of up to 373 miles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There has been no confirmation of how closely related the two cars will be, but the Cayenne Electric is expected to be almost exactly the same size as the Bentley EV, suggesting scope for close collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bentley CEO Frank Walliser confirmed during the announcement \u2013 which also featured the first official image of the car under cover (below) \u2013 that the car will be launched \u201ctowards the end of 2026\u201d before deliveries begin the following year. Walliser said this timeline will not change, even if wider EV demand falls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\"
