Volkswagen AG has approved plans to put a Bentley SUV into production. Code-named ''Falcon,'' it will be based on the EXP 9F concept unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show last year.

Bentley CEO Wolfgang Schreiber said that the SUV is expected to hit the market within three years at around €200,000 (approx. $270,000). The company projects annual sales of 5,000 units.

Look for a standard eight-cylinder engine, and possibly an optional 6.0L W12.
