Scheduled for an early 2016 launch, the new Bentley Bentayga SUV will have 600 hp and a W-12 engine, which will make it the fastest and most powerful SUV on Earth. Bentley’s Bentayga is reportedly capable of speeding from zero to 60 mph in just 4 seconds with top speeds of up to 187 mph.
Stacked with upgraded features, the new model includes a touchscreen entertainment system, built-in Android tablet, 18-speaker Naim stereo system, 60-gigabyte onboard hard drive, and an optional refrigerator.
Drive Dynamics Mode and the optional Responsive Off-Road setting help to keep the powerful vehicle in control with eight driving-mode selections. The addition of Dynamic Ride also means the Bentayga is able to automatically compensate for lateral roll potential.
The Bentayga is as luxurious as you’d expect a Bentley to be. The 15-piece interior surface area sports hand-selected wood veneers, metal, and leather, in addition to seats with a six-program massage system.
Estimated to start at around $200,000, Bentley’s luxurious and powerful new Bentayga SUV is sure to heat up the SUV arms race. It’ll be interesting to see how Porsche responds, given that the Cayenne Turbo S reigned supreme for many years.
