Bentley unveils bespoke Remembrance cars

Bentley has honoured Remembrance Day with two unique creations.

The latest tributes to the Armed Forces are specially commissioned cars, with the Bentayga Extended Wheelbase Artenara and Superports given bespoke designs.

The so-called ‘Poppy Cars’ have been a constant in Bentley’s yearly commissions, with last year’s Bentayga EWB Azure focusing on the Battle of Britain.

These latest cars mark the fifth ‘Remembrance’ creation for the Crewe-based firm, with both taking inspiration from John McCrae’s poem In Flanders Fields. The exterior of the cars uses poppies throughout, while larks come to symbolise ‘life enduring through adversity’.

Chris Cole, Bentley’s Product Line Director, commented: “The Remembrance vehicles demonstrate how craftsmanship can be used to tell stories that matter. Every detail has been thoughtfully created to honour those who served, creating a lasting symbol of remembrance, respect and appreciation.

“Unveiled in the same year that Bentley was awarded Gold Employer Recognition Scheme (ERS) status, the highest recognition available to employers supporting the Armed Forces community, the vehicles underscore the company’s enduring commitment to veterans, reservists, serving personnel and their families.”

Members of Bentley’s manufacturing team even crocheted handmade poppies to help raise funds for the Royal British Legion, marking their own personal tribute.
