Bentley: Saying no to diesel

Bentley Motors again said no to a diesel.

Bentley has said it is unlikely to produce diesel models, even though key competitors such as Porsche are bringing them to market.

According to a senior company source, Bentley has been conducting customer clinics to ask buyers what they think of diesel models - and most have been opposed to the idea.

He added that the company is also opposed to the idea for business reasons: “a lot of our cars are sold in the US and Asia and these are not diesel markets. We cannot make it stand up just developing a diesel model for Europe.”
