Before driving the new Bentley Bentayga Speed, my question for its engineering team was going to be simple: why isn’t it a hybrid?

Over the moon to be 2024 Automotive Feature Writer of the Year - against some very talented competition. Freelance life is so fun and I get to work for titles (and with people) I've always admired. Getting to celebrate some of the work we've done together is ace.

Lots of lovely stuff in here, a fascinating chat with @Mikeconway26 tucked amongst it all. Brilliant to poke around Gazoo Racing's European base with him.
Save yourself a trip to the shops during this cold snap and pre-order the new issue of @evomagazine and have it delivered to your door. And yes, we did find 18 ‘hot* hatches’ to test. *some weren’t very hot at all https://t.co/aXFS4GnOvD https://t.co/TeDU2h7uQ1
