Bentley Motors has unveiled a unique Bentayga EWB Mulliner, crafted as a moving tribute for Remembrance Day, marking Bentley’s third dedicated Remembrance Car.
Designed by Bentley’s in-house team in collaboration with the BeReady network—a group supporting veterans and reservists within Bentley—this bespoke vehicle honors the 80th anniversary of D-Day with a symbolic poppy-themed design.
Adorned with 80 red poppies rising from a map of northern France, the car serves as a poignant reminder of the journey from England to Europe on D-Day, commemorating sacrifices made in the pursuit of peace.

The Bentayga’s striking exterior features vibrant red poppies against a streamlined finish, each poppy symbolizing courage and sacrifice. This dynamic visual connects Bentley’s legacy of craftsmanship with a respectful tribute to those who served.
The vehicle becomes a mobile symbol of remembrance and resilience, uniting past, present, and future in a single design.
Bentley’s Director of Design, Robin Page, expressed the profound significance of the project, noting, “Every detail reflects Bentley’s respect for history, while looking forward into the future.”
This tribute holds special meaning for the BeReady network, whose members played a significant role in shaping the design to honor their shared heritage and personal connections to the Armed Forces. James Lynam, co-chair of BeReady, emphasized the importance of this initiative in reflecting on the bravery of servicemen and women, especially with this year’s milestone anniversary.
The Remembrance Car will make appearances across the UK, starting with Bentley’s hometown of Crewe and featuring as the course car at the Race of Remembrance in Anglesey, an event by Mission Motorsport to unite the community in remembrance.
The car will also be part of Bentley’s commemorative gathering at Crewe headquarters on November 11 and will be displayed at the His Majesty’s Lord-Lieutenant of Cheshire Awards on November 13, underscoring Bentley’s commitment to honoring the Armed Forces.
