Bentley teases Arnage successor

Bentley is giving a glimpse of its future this morning with a teaser shot of the Arnage successor due for 2011.

Look for a public debut this summer, possibly in concept form at the Pebble Beach concours, where the British luxury maker is one of the featured companies as it marks its 90th anniversary.

Details are scarce, though the teaser shows a lengthy hood, prominent grille and big fenders–hallmarks of the Bentley line. The company refers to the car as the new “Grand Bentley,” but the name is unknown. Expect new underpinnings and a biofuel-capable engine. It will be designed and built in Crewe, England.

The most recent upgrade to the Arnage was the aptly-named Final Edition, which was shown

at the Paris motor show in October and limited to 150 copies. Bentley’s new entry in the segment has been widely anticipated as it looks to remain competitive with Maybach and Rolls-Royce.
