Ya hablábamos hace unas semanas que Rolls Royce aún no se encontraba preparada para ofrecer un vehículo eléctrico competente a alto nivel de exigencia de sus clientes. Sin embargo, Bentley sí que está haciendo más avances en el terreno de los vehículos híbridos, y prueba de ello es el Hybrid Concept, que han presentado hoy, y que podremos ver en el Salón de Pekín.
Se trata un vehículo de investigación que demuestra el poderío tecnológico de Bentley, siendo este su primer híbrido enchufable desarrollado. Sin embargo no será esta variación del Mulsanne la que montará el sistema plug-in hybrid, sino que el primer coche del fabricante en el que lo podremos ver será el SUV, en 2017 —aunque la variante de motor de combustión llegue en 2016—.
Es así como los de Crewe se convierten en la primera marca de lujo en presentar un sistema híbrido enchufable. Aunque nadie les quita el mérito, estamos seguros de que este sistema de propulsión híbrido tiene muchas piezas en común con el e-tron de Audi, así como el SUV las tendrá con el nuevo Audi Q7.
Este nuevo sistema híbrido tendrá un aumento de potencia de más del 25% con un 70% de reducción en las emisiones de CO2, sin comprometer por otra parte el lujo y confort de un auténtico Bentley. Así pues, el sistema híbrido nos ofrecerá hasta 50 km de autonomía puramente eléctrica, y que posteriormente entrará el motor térmico para funcionar como un híbrido clásico.
Por ser un prototipo no pierde ni un ápice del más exquisito lujo inglés, y se muestra como un coche totalmente acabado; obvio basándose en el diseño de un modelo de producción. Pero para diferenciarlo de otro Mulsanne normal, Bentley ha utilizado el cobre como elemento decorativo en múltiples partes de la carrocería y el interior, como en los faros, calandra frontal, pinzas de freno y demás embellecedores.
En el interior continúan los detalles en cobre, con inserciones en el salpicadero, los botones y los instrumentos. Los cosidos sobre el cuero en forma de rombo están basados en la edición especial Mulliner Driving Specification. La verdad es que a pesar de lo que podríamos pensar en un principio, el conjunto tiene un buen aspecto general, sin parecer estridente u hortera, cosa que por desgracia no podemos decir del exterior.
En el salón de Pekín será presentado el domingo 20 de abril, junto a otros tres coches más de la marca. Estos serán los ya conocidos Flying Spur V8 —que llegará por primera vez al mercado chino—, el Continental GT Speed y el Continental GT V8 S.
