    Bentley’s SUV concept, the EXP 9 F was the most polarizing and controversial vehicle shown at this year’s Geneva Motor Show. After hearing reactions, Bentley has decided to back to the drawing board on their SUV.

    What Car? has learned from a Bentley source the EXP 9 F will be getting some changes. Those changes could include “more traditional SUV proportions”, “less retro surfacing”, and smaller headlights.

    I actually like that styling, I find it very unique in the sea of SUVs. It's a shame public opinion is causing a redesign... how many of those complaining about it would/could afford it??? :P

    I like the styling of the profile in particular and the side panel contouring, not the usual slab sided SUV. Unusual to see an SUV w/o dark window tint. The headlights are a bit large. I like the subtle design of the wheels.

    GMTruckGuy74, I totally agree, the Look is a love it / hate it look but that is why I like it so much. It truly stands apart from all other luxury SUV's just like my Escalade 2006 stands out from all others.

    Plus how many people are really going to be able to aford it anyway. I would be listening to the ubber rich customers more than the general public at an auto show.

    • WOW, This just blows my mind on this stupid woman that Dumb Dirty Donald put in charge of education. Full list of degrees not classed as ‘professional’ by Trump admin These degrees are no longer considered professional or valid. List of Degrees Not Classed as ‘Professional’ by Trump Admin Nursing Physician assistants Physical therapists Audiologists Architects Accountants Educators Social workers   How does one think that any of these that take considerable training are not professional degrees!
    • So much going on, Idiot47 calling for the execution of people that disagree with how he is doing things, this is all so pathetic. As we enter our Thanksgiving week, I am very humble for the friends that I have here at C&G and yes that even includes the ones I disagree with on various topics and debate with be you in the U.S. or out of the U.S.  I wish you all a relaxing, enjoyable time with family and friends for your Thanksgiving Day. I have one wish and that is for the following as we go into the end of the year and Xmas season.   I hope that we can get past sooner rather than later Dumb Dirty Donald and Flamboyant Hollywood Gavin and get a "We the People" President that understands that regardless of your conservative or liberal leanings, we are one country of multi-cultural people and like everyone other than the 1% crowd, we have to live within a balanced budget. Bring the house and senate together to work as they are supposed to represent the people and not the 1%. Balance tariffs for those things that truly are being made under the cost of the current industry still producing manufactured goods in the U.S. and drop all the rest for things that are no longer made or available here. Support the medical insurance for all, stop borrowing against Social Security. Focus on supporting job growth in new industries and not destroying billion-dollar investments trying to live in the past. May you all have a wonderful holiday week or relaxing week if out of the U.S.
