Bentley Bentayga
– (The First Love Affair of Bentley with SUV-Segment.)
Presenting the first foray of Bentley Bentayga in the SUV segment.
A five door superlative SUV straight out of the Bentley’s arsenal that outshines deluxe SUVs such as Range Rover SV, Mercedes Maybach GLS 600, and Rolls Royce Cullinan with its majestic grandeur.
Turbocharged with refined 12 L W-12 twin engine and adorned with hand stitched leather and diamond-knurled aluminium depicts what happens when top-of-the-line performance collaborates with irresistible opulence.
This ultra luxury SUV also holds the badge of one of the fastest SUV in the world with poise, racing with the top speed of 180 mph and delivering 0-60 mph in just 3.8 sec.
Interestingly, it is also one of the fuel-efficient SUVs in its segment- its V6 hybrid variant offers an EPA-estimated fuel efficiency up to 21 mpg highway.
Impressive! isn’t it? But that’s just the preliminary indicators of Bentley’s meticulous engineering.
Scroll down and explore the absolute breakdown of the Bentley Bentayga specifications.
