Bentley Bentayga 2017: ugly, but still expensive!

2016 Bentley Bentayga Diesel Bentley Motors has just revealed full details for the latest Bentayga Diesel model. Simply beautiful and luxurious, this vehicle has a lot to demonstrate. So, let’s waste no more time and dive into car’s features!

Exterior styling

2016 Bentley Bentayga Diesel

We see a rather familiar style language: expressive front-end with a well-known face shape, clean lines and curves, none excessive additions that shape the character of the sides and rear-end. In fact, the rear showcases a rather simplistic, yet elegant shape. One more time, there is nothing unneeded and unwanted. Not bad.

What we do not like, though, are the SUV-based body proportions. It looks sporty and aggressive, but we tend to link the Bentley name with stylish, massive and elegant vehicles. However, a bit of experimenting is never a bad thing. The distinctive character is enhanced by black matrix grille, neat 20-inch wheels that can be further changed with even more beautiful 21-inch Mulliner Driving Specification set.

Long story short: it is not an ugly vehicle, but we definitely have seen far more stylish design solutions.

Interior styling

2016 Bentley Bentayga Diesel

Aah, much better. Now we are talking about Bentley styling. Expressing luxury, precision and comfort, the cockpit is entirely dominated by hand-selected veneers, all handcrafted and hand-built. The Bentayga is available with exclusive Mulliner Hamper set that brings refrigerator, Linley china cutlery, crockery and crystal glass and storage area for dry goodies. Sweet, right?

Furthermore, the ambience of luxury and exclusivity is further enhanced by the numerous wooden components, overall smooth details and components and for some reason for this contrast white stitching that, personally for me, brings some sort of unexplainable feeling of comfort.

Drivetrain system

Bentley team has already revealed the full specification of the lineup! Buyers will be dealing with a rather powerful machine. Something more: Bentley team has the ambition to deliver us the fastest and most agile SUV produced to this date. Brave. Let’s see whether they succeeded in the daunting challenge.

Under the hood buyers and enthusiasts will find a triple-charged 4.0-liter, 32 valve V8 machine. Scary, isn’t it? This bad boy delivers a total of 429hp (320kW) and the titanic 900Nm of torque. Or, in other words, the Bentayga Diesel is capable of reaching a top speed of 270km/h (168mph) and accelerates from 0 to 100km/h (62mph) in mere 4.8 seconds. Not bad. Not bad at all!

There is also a special exhaust system that was created exclusively for this mode, a Selective Catalytic Reduction system that reduces the nitrous oxides, Bentley’s stop-start system, Electric Power-Assisted Steering is also present, just as Electronica Stability Control, Traction Control and Hill Descent Control. Sweet.

Additional equipment and goodies

2016 Bentley Bentayga Diesel

The Bentayga is geared with numerous known and unknown systems and tweaks that enhance the feeling of comfort and luxury. For example, there is this special infotainment system that also enhances the safety rates and convenience of the vehicle. It adds Driving Dynamics Modes, Responsive Off-Road Setting and more.

Furthermore, the Adaptive Cruise Control includes Stop&Go function, Predictive ACC and Traffic Assist functions are also present, along with Traffic Sign Recognition, Rear Crossing Traffic Warning, Top View and Park Assist systems.

Bentley Bentayga Previewed During Winter Testing in Sweden [VIDEO]

Bentley Bentayga is company’s first ever production SUV. The car has been actually teased again via new video (watch it below), which displays how it tackles the snowy roads of Sweden. Along with the winter testing, the company also revealed that the new crossover will offer the emblematic for the brand smooth driving experience and sophisticated balance. Everything will come within a package of efficient power, distributed over “any imaginable terrain”. In other words the Bentayga will be an example of a performance never seen before.

Most Advanced Bentley

The goal of Bentley is to redefine the crossover segment (Jaguar F-PACE aims at the same) with its extreme capability and comfortability. Although the designers of the SUV have been working for a very long time now, it is definitely worth it, because it seems that they have featured in it the most advanced materials and technologies.

As the company says, Bentley Bentayga will be the most advanced vehicle in its line-up. In addition, it also promises that it will be the most luxurious SUV ever produced … in the world! These words are very strong, but knowing what Bentley is capable of, it is surely possible.

The innovations which are going to be featured in the car will be also there to heighten the sense of style. Furthermore, every Bentayga will deliver an elevated view for its occupants. What is more, the interior will be fitted with exclusive textures. These are veneers, which have been sanded and varnished repeatedly, before being applied inside the car.

It is not confirmed yet, but reports say that Bentayga is going to be powered by either of 4.0-liter V8 as well as the 6.0 litre twin-turbocharged W12 units. A plug-in hybrid variant is planned for 2017. The twin-turbocharged engine will be coupled with an eight-speed transmission and will develop 600 hp (441 kW) and 800 Nm (590 lb-ft) of torque.

World Debut

Bentley Bentayga is going to be launched later this year and is scheduled for a market premiere in 2016. It has been three years in the making so the expectations are extremely high. Reports also say that it is going to be based on the second generation Audi Q7.

Bentley Names its Upcoming SUV “Bentayga”

The first news for today has nothing to do with the North American Auto Show, but rather with an upcoming debut of highly anticipated SUV. Bentley has finally revealed the name of their upcoming crossover next to a picture which shows its wing vent. Dubbed as Bentayga, this new SUV is going to take luxury to new places and combine it with pinnacle performance. Its design is inspired by the natural world and this is highly visible in the last video teaser we have seen.

In it we have also seen Bentley’s familiar grille that is flanked by circular headlights and inspired by the Continental model. The crossover will also boast front fender vents and muscular rear fenders, roof rails and a unique tailgate as well as hand-stitched leather upholstery.

The natural world also inspired the company for SUV’s name, signifying the dramatic beauty of the Taiga in the north – world’s largest transcontinental snowforest. To the south, the rugged peak of the Roque Bentayga in the subtropical Canary Islands draws attention from all directions and a challenging climb rewards with beautiful panoramic views of an abundant landscape.

It is not confirmed yet, but Bentayga is rumored to be powered by either of 4.0-liter V8 as well as the 6.0 litre twin-turbocharged W12 units. A plug-in hybrid variant is planned for 2017. The twin-turbocharged engine is coupled with an eight-speed transmission and develops 600 hp (441 kW) and 800 Nm (590 lb-ft) of torque.

Bentley Bentayga will be revealed later this year and is scheduled to go on sale in 2016.
