Bentley announce new facility for Battery-Powered Electric Vehicle (BEV) production

Bentley Motors has taken the next step on its journey to become the world’s most sustainable luxury automotive manufacturer with a ground-breaking ceremony for its new Launch Quality Centre and Engineering Technical Centre. The new facility at Bentley’s headquarters in Crewe, England, will be integral to the brand’s preparations for future Battery-Powered Electric Vehicle (BEV) production and to set a new benchmark in next generation, digital, flexible and high-value manufacturing operations.
The new buildings will include a replica BEV assembly line as preparation for the introduction of Bentley’s first BEV in 2026. Furthermore, reinforcing this as a hub for future model development, it includes a software integration centre, prototype workshop, metrology testing and a dedicated area focusing on future materials development.

The new Launch Quality Centre will take up two floors, each covering 4,000 square metres. The in-house Metrology team will be located on the ground floor, responsible for measuring every part of a Bentley to the highest standards of precision; the team’s role is fundamental to the quality, performance and longevity of every luxury car that comes off the production line. The second floor will be home to virtually a complete production proving ground, comprising a laboratory for future materials testing and a mini assembly line to test future BEV assembly.

The Engineering Technical Centre will also be located across two floors, covering a total of 13,000 square metres. The centre will house a prototype workshop for models of the future, materials development and a software integration centre. Key to the facility’s harmonious integration is a structured, comprehensive application of skills in training, testing and launch preparation for all software and electrical, digital high-voltage systems.
