Bentley's first SUV was previewed as the Bentley EXP 9 F concept car at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. The concept car was based upon the Volkswagen Group MLB platform, powered by a 6.0 L W12 engine producing Шаблон:Convert.[3] The initial design of the EXP 9 F was redesigned to achieve "more traditional SUV proportions and less retro surfacing."[4] An early name for the model was the Falcon.[5]

The production version was announced in July 2013. The Bentley EXP 9 F's design received a mixed response from the motoring press. After some criticism for the design of the EXP 9 F, Bentley announced that it would change the styling for the production versions.Шаблон:Citation needed

Overview

Шаблон:Multiple image

The production Bentayga debuted at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 2015 as Bentley's first SUV.[6][7] it features unibody construction and full-time all-wheel drive, as well as Volkswagen Group's bi-turbo W12 engine and MLB platform, the latter shared with the second-generation Audi Q7 and the third-generation Porsche Cayenne, Audi Q8, and Lamborghini Urus. Available in seating configurations for four, five, or seven, at launch the Bentayga was claimed by the manufacturer as the second most expensive production SUV. In spite of having the highest claimed top speed (of Шаблон:Convert)Шаблон:Citation needed, it has been described by the Guardian and the Sunday Times as "huge" and by the Daily Telegraph as "gargantuan".[1][2][8]

A total of 608 "First Edition" units (featuring the 608PS W12) were manufactured upon introduction.Шаблон:Citation needed The original prediction for 2016 was that 3,500 Bentaygas would be sold. When the entire production volume for the year sold out in advance, production was increased and resulted in 5,586 units being sold.[9] Despite its high price tag, the car was a sales success for Bentley in 2016 and became Bentley's most popular model.[9] It has contributed to Bentley's increasing sales as of 2022.[10] In 2022 about 6370 Bentley Bentaygas were sold.[11]

Bentley revealed the name Bentayga in January 2015.[12] The name comes from Roque Bentayga, an emblematic highland rock situated in Tejeda, Gran Canaria,[13][14] the subtropical Canary Island. The company also drew inspiration from a portmanteau of Bentley and Taiga, the world's largest transcontinental snow forest, composed of the first four letters of Bentley and an altered spelling of taiga.[15]

Assembly

Originally slated by Volkswagen to be produced at the Volkswagen Bratislava Plant in Slovakia where all other models based on the platform are produced, an agreement was reached with the British Government for the model to be produced at the Crewe factory.[16] Bentley invested £800 million in a new assembly facility there and employed 1,000 new employees to support production of the new model.[17]

Production of the Bentayga's body shell remained at the Bratislava facility,[18] but was moved to Volkswagen's Zwickau-Mosel Plant at the end of 2016.

The 2016 Bentayga was launched with (and was first to receive) Bentley's new twin-turbo W12 engine.

A second, more powerful version of the twin-turbo W12 was introduced for the Bentayga Speed in 2020 helping the car to achieve a claimed Шаблон:Convert of 3.9 s.

Starting in 2017, a diesel V8 derived from the VW Group diesel V8 was available. This engine is Bentley's first diesel and only offered in the Bentayga. Included are a badge on the front wing and the trapezoid quad exhaust tips. Bentley claims performance of the 4.0 L, twin-turbo diesel of Шаблон:Convert in 4.6 seconds, Шаблон:Convert in 4.8 s, and a top speed of Шаблон:Convert.[21]

2020 facelift

Шаблон:Multiple image

The facelifted model was released in June 2020. Changes include new 3D elliptical tail-lights with animated LEDs, similar to those on the third-generation Continental GT, and a rear number plate repositioned onto the bumper to allow for ‘Bentley’ to be spelled out across the tailgate. The rear spoiler was enlarged. New side vents, a new Шаблон:Cvt wheel design, and two paint colours were added. New oval-shaped split tailpipes, heated wipers with 22 washer jets in each arm, and an optional Blackline variant with blacked-out chrome complete the external alterations.

Changes were made in the cabin, such as in the rear, where new seat frames in combination with extra reclining allow a Шаблон:Cvt increase in knee space. There are ventilated rear seats and the car can be had with four, five, or seven seats. Rear passengers also receive an updated 5.0-in removable touchscreen tablet to control entertainment and comfort functions.

The infotainment has a new system with a higher resolution 10.9-in touchscreen. Included are Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as well as USB-C ports, air ionisers, wireless smartphone charging, and an embedded SIM card for data services. The traditional instrument dials have been replaced with a digital display (like in newer Bentleys) and the head-up display shows much more data. The audio system is a 790W, 12-speaker stereo with an optional Naim system that has 1780W and 20 speakers.

The optional W12 engine is no longer available for the 2020 model. The base model features a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine generating Шаблон:Cvt. Optional is the V6 plug-in hybrid which will come to the market by late 2020. An updated Bentayga Speed was introduced in August 2020. It shares the same 6.0-litre twin-turbocharged W12 engine with the older Bentayga Speed which generates Шаблон:Cvt.[24]

Bentayga S

In May 2021, Bentley released the Bentayga S, which is at the fourth model of the line-up, joining the plug-in hybrid, the standard V8, and the W12-powered Speed. According to Bentley, the S variant has a more "aggressively styled" design. The Bentayga S is equipped with a different 22-inch wheels, a larger rear spoiler, black lower-body panels, tinted light clusters, and black oval sports exhaust.[25]

The interior features Alcantara leather on seats, gear selector, steering wheel, headlining, and other trim elements. The chassis promises "an even more engaging drive," with 15% firmer dampers, recalibrated torque vectoring system, and Bentley's Dynamic Ride system as standard. The Bentayga S is powered by a Шаблон:Cvt 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged petrol V8 engine.[26]

Bentayga EWB

In May 2022, the Bentley Bentayga Extended Wheelbase, intended to replace the Bentley Mulsanne, was released. It features a V8 twin-turbo 4.0-litre engine that produces Шаблон:Cvt, active anti-roll bars, and rear wheel steering.[27][28]
