Bentley has unveiled a unique Bentayga EWB Mulliner in honor of Remembrance Day and the 80th anniversary of D-Day. The one-of-a-kind model, developed by Bentley’s design team and the BeReady network — a support group for veterans and reservists within Bentley —features a striking poppy-themed wrap that symbolizes resilience.
The design, featuring 80 red poppies rising from a map of northern France, honors the path taken by Allied forces on D-Day, each flower representing a life sacrificed in the pursuit of peace. Robin Page, Bentley’s Director of Design, calls the Bentayga “a symbol of our collective memory,” reflecting Bentley’s respect for history while looking toward the future.
This Remembrance Car will embark on a commemorative tour across the UK, starting with community events in Crewe and participating as the course car at the Race of Remembrance in Anglesey. The vehicle will also return to Bentley’s headquarters on November 11 for a collective gathering, culminating in an appearance at the Lord-Lieutenant of Cheshire Awards on November 13.
James Lynam, co-chair of Bentley’s BeReady network, notes, “This year, with the 80th anniversary of D-Day, we aimed to create a design that honors the bravery of those who served.”
