BENTAYGA - CHARACTERISTICS

The Bentley Bentayga is designed to inspire exploration in its purest form.

Its commanding design comes together with a suite of innovative technology, to create a vehicle that excels everywhere, from city streets to the open road and beyond. No other SUV delivers such an accomplished fusion of comfort, capability and exhilaration behind the wheel.

DESIGN

A stunning visual statement

The Bentley Bentayga exudes road presence. Viewed from head-on, the bonnet sweeps down to LED matrix headlamps with an intricate ‘crystal cut’ design. Together with a wide, imposing Bentley matrix grille, the sculpted front bumper hints at the vehicle’s performance credentials.

A large wing vent and sleek sills add detail to a streamlined profile. At the rear, jewelled 3D tail-lamps are contained within a broad, cleanly designed tailgate. The V8 and Hybrid models both include elegant 21” wheels as standard, while Bentayga S feature his own imposing 22” wheel designs.

Inside, a 10.9” touchscreen takes centre stage. Together with a digital driver’s information panel, it ensures a perfect blend of technology and craftsmanship. The optional four-seat configuration provides a cossetting environment in which to travel, for both work and leisure.

PERFORMANCE

Unrelenting performance

Bentayga V8 and Bentayga S deliver a truly thrilling drive, reaching 0 to 60 mph in just 4.4 seconds (0 to 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds). They can continue accelerating effortlessly, up to a top speed of 180 mph (290 km/h) – all to the tune of a glorious V8 roar. With the addition of the Sports Exhaust – included as standard on Bentayga S – this incredible sound can be enhanced even further.

Bentayga Hybrid is driven by an intelligent combination of electric motor and 3.0 litre V6 petrol engine. Together, they can propel you to a top speed of 158 mph (254 km/h), achieving 0 to 60 mph in just 5.2 seconds (0 to 100 km/h in 5.5 seconds).

Dynamic driving without compromise

Bentayga S is equipped with Bentley Dynamic Ride – a groundbreaking active anti-roll system. This innovative feature uses a 48 volt electric motor to minimise body roll when the car is cornering, so you feel in complete control at all times – even when cornering at speed. Yet by relaxing its grip at other times, it also allows for a comfortable ride during regular daily driving.

The result is a truly thrilling driving experience: a refined SUV with the handling of a high-performance sports car and the comfort of a luxury grand tourer.

Advanced and intuitive

The All-Terrain Specification adds four additional drive modes, called responsive off-road settings, to the four standard on-road drive modes. These cover virtually every terrain on which the Bentayga is likely to be driven: Snow and Wet Grass, Dirt and Gravel, Mud and Trail, and Sand. The driver simply selects the most appropriate mode for the terrain and, automatically, all relevant vehicle systems are optimised. If applicable, specific off-road systems – such as Hill Descent Control – are also activated, working together to provide you with absolute control and confidence.

In addition to the responsive off-road settings, the All-Terrain Specification includes additional, robust underfloor protection, along with a specific screen on the infotainment system that displays useful information, and a luggage management system to ensure items in the boot are safely secured, even when traversing a sand dune.

TECHNOLOGY THAT ENHANCES EVERY DRIVE

The Bentley Bentayga range harnesses the latest technology to inspire confidence and a sense of security on every drive, whatever the journey demands.

Audio options

There are two different sound systems to choose from: the Bentley Signature Audio system (as standard) and, for dedicated audiophiles, the sublime Naim for Bentley.

Intuitive entertainment

Behind the new crystal-clear digital displays lies the latest infotainment system, bringing configurable, dynamic graphics, seamless connectivity and innovative features. These include wireless Apple CarPlay* and Android Auto, plus an all-new navigation system that includes satellite maps. There is an extensive range of media inputs, including two Type-C connectivity points and digital TV.

Passengers enjoying their journey in the rear of the cabin benefit from the Touch Screen Remote with eye-catching graphics and features including control of the panoramic roof blind and mood lighting settings.

Safe, smart and convenient

The Bentayga range features the latest My Bentley* Connected Services, with an embedded SIM that makes access to the in-car features much simpler. In addition to new services, including online radio and over-the-air map updates, the connection to the outside world enhances a number of infotainment features. For example, access to intelligent online databases improves natural speech recognition and ensures the Traffic Sign Recognition tool reflects live, changing road conditions.

Meanwhile, the My Bentley* app provides access to a full suite of innovative services, including remote car finder, remote vehicle locking and unlocking.

For ultimate convenience, a wireless smartphone charger is included as standard and up to six USB Type-C charging points ensure both driver and passengers can easily stay connected.

DRIVER ASSISTANCE

Adaptive Cruise Control takes the effort out of highway driving, allowing you to take your foot off the accelerator pedal while the car maintains a pre-programmed speed. If the traffic in front slows down, your Bentayga will slow down too, to maintain a safe distance. In congested traffic, it will even stop and move forward automatically, when necessary to keep pace with the motion of the vehicles in front.

A lane detection system will warn you if you drift out of your lane, providing haptic feedback through the steering wheel. It can even correct your course for you. Blind spot monitoring enables you to overtake with confidence – and when you leave the highway, traffic sign recognition means your Bentayga can alert you to changes in the speed limit.

Equipped with Bentley’s City Specification as standard, every Bentayga includes more assistive features, created specifically for urban driving. From autonomous parking to systems that alert you to potential obstacles while reversing, each one is designed to give you extra peace of mind.

PERSONALISED BY YOU

Bentayga can be commissioned to match your exact requirements. If you want to explore our options even further, the Mulliner team will provide bespoke modifications to create a truly unique vehicle.

Seven paint colours are available as standard on Bentayga V8, Bentayga S and Bentayga Hybrid. You can also choose from two additions to the range: Cambrian Grey, a solid grey suggestive of performance and the striking Snow Quartz Pearlescent.

Included as standard on new Bentayga S and optional for all other models, the Blackline Specification dramatically changes Bentayga’s character. All the exterior brightware – with the exception of the Bentley wings and the BENTLEY lettering on the tailgate – becomes black, giving an intense, purposeful look.

Alternatively, the Black Specification takes this a step further: in addition to the black trim, a restyled front bumper includes a carbon fibre blade, while carbon fibre sills, a carbon fibre rear spoiler, black exhaust tailpipes and a choice of 22” wheels complete a dramatic look.

The Mulliner Driving Specification adds a sophisticated, sporting edge to the interior of your Bentayga. This includes diamond-quilted seats, sports pedals, embroidered Bentley emblems and the full choice of hide, carpet and interior colour combinations. It also adds a unique 22” 10-spoke wheel in a choice of finishes, or you can specify any Bentayga wheel of your choice.

IMMERSIVE INTERIORS

The standard veneer, Crown Cut Walnut, brings a contemporary feel to the cabin. There are also seven optional veneers to choose from. High-gloss carbon fibre is joined by Dark Tint Diamond Brushed Aluminium, a stunning technical finish, with a unique 3D appearance. From Burr Walnut by Mulliner to Brushed Aluminium, the surfaces inside your Bentayga can be specified to feel traditionally classic or cutting-edge contemporary – the only variables that do not change are the luxury and quality that can be felt throughout.

There are 15 hide colours to choose from.

There is a wealth of optional interior features to choose from, including a new heated, indented steering wheel

Throughout your Bentayga’s cabin, decorative contrast stitching, hand cross-stitching and embroidered emblems can all be commissioned, as can micro piping, a modern version of traditional piping that makes the ultimate craftsmanship statement.
