This Wild Bentley-Branded Apartment Building Has An Elevator For You And Your Car

The building will measure 749 feet high, and the sum total of four elevators will be able to take vehicles all the way up to the top floor, according to Bentley. Drivers can remain seated in their cars during this process, which involves what the automaker refers to as a robotic shuttle system with hydraulics. Where is the elevator taking the car? Straight from the ground level to the driver’s own apartment, Bentley explains, stating that each apartment unit has its own garage able to accommodate either three or four vehicles.

The aforementioned tech features planned for the residential complex include the automatic scanning of residents’ cars when they enter the building, something that’ll be made possible by RFID stickers each driver will get for their vehicles. The scanning system is intended to activate a “sophisticated lighting system,” Bentley says in its press release, one that’ll be designed to help guide the driver to the specific elevator that is heading to their particular floor of the building.

Though Bentley is already showing off a sales gallery of one of the finished apartment units so that prospective buyers can see what they’re in for, it has also leveraged Unreal Engine to create a VR replica for those who prefer to conduct tours using a headset strapped to their face. It sounds like each apartment unit will be quite large, as the sales gallery example measures a massive 6,000 square feet. How much does this kind of luxury cost? Bentley says the apartments will be priced starting at $4.2 million, though it’s unclear where the upper end of the pricing spectrum lies.
