The Bentley Bentayga S Is The Suv Of Your Dreams

Driving a Bentley Bentayga is like getting around in a vessel of seven-star heaven, which is no bad thing given the COVID-induced travel restrictions some of us face these days. The go-anywhere luxury SUV can take the family road trip to a whole new level. The new Bentley Bentayga S brings extra sporting agility to the Bentayga model line-up, adding more heft and musculature over the “entry-level” 4.0-liter turbocharged V8 and plug-in Hybrid models it supersedes. It also offers impressive handling and performance capabilities previously seen only in the powerful top-of-the-line 626 hp W12 Bentayga Speed. Bentley Bentley Bentley Bentley Bentley Bentley Bentley Bentley’s Bentayga was the first ultra-luxe SUV to market in 2016 ahead of rivals the Lamborghini Urus, Rolls-Royce Cullinan, and Aston Martin DBX. Since then, it’s been a stunning success for the British marque, with more than 25,000 customers taking delivery of its mega-luxe SUV. Within three years, the vehicle accounted for 45% of the company’s global sales, with a large portion of buyers reportedly new to the brand. In Australia, Bentley says up to 70% of Bentayga buyers have never previously owned a Bentley. When I drove the V8 Bentayga Diesel in 2017, my only criticism was the body roll when cornering in the substantial high-riding vehicle. Bentley has dispensed with that problem in the Bentayga S by including as standard the company’s electric active roll control technology, Bentley Dynamic Ride. Back in 2017, this was an $8,300 option, but you’d have to have it for the improved cabin stability, ride comfort, and handling.

In terms of road presence, the Bentayga S looks more youthful and muscular than its siblings.
