~$260,000
Engine: 6.0L twin-turbocharged W12
Torque: 900 Nm
0–100 km/h: 3.9 s
Despite being one of the most luxurious SUVs on the planet, the Bentley Bentayga Speed has the performance credentials to rival sports cars. Its 6.0-liter W12 engine produces a staggering 635 horsepower and 900 Nm of torque, launching the nearly 2.5-ton SUV from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds. With a top speed of 306 km/h (190 mph), it once held the title of the world’s fastest production SUV.
Bentley engineered the Speed with more than just straight-line power. It features sport-calibrated air suspension, active anti-roll control, and all-wheel drive with torque vectoring. Optional carbon-ceramic brakes and recalibrated damping add a surprising level of composure and agility in corners—making the Bentayga more dynamic than its size suggests.
While maintaining its opulent interior and elegant exterior, the Speed subtly signals its performance edge with darkened trim, a tailgate spoiler, unique 22-inch wheels, and Speed badging. Inside, the sportier edge is marked by contrast stitching, Alcantara trim, and performance-focused drive modes. The Bentayga Speed proves that power and presence can coexist, offering GT car performance in a high-riding, all-weather, ultra-luxurious package.

Model Name Meaning (Manufacturer)
The name “Bentayga” is derived from Roque Bentayga, a mountain peak on Gran Canaria in the Canary Islands — a tribute to exploration and majesty. The name also evokes the concept of ‘taiga’, the vast Arctic forest region, underscoring the SUV’s all-terrain and all-climate versatility.
As Bentley’s first foray into the SUV segment, the Bentayga was a technical marvel, built on the Volkswagen Group’s MLB Evo platform (shared with Audi Q7, Porsche Cayenne, and Lamborghini Urus), but engineered with unique Bentley materials, tuning, and hand-finished detail.
Model Name Meaning (Languages)
“Bentayga” remains unchanged across markets. In every language, it is now associated with upper-echelon luxury, all-terrain capability, and prestigious customizability. The name’s uniqueness contributes to its global recognition among elite clientele.
Body & Interior Colors and Rims
The Bentayga is available in more than 60 exterior paint options via Bentley's Mulliner customization program, including Sequin Blue, British Racing Green, Cambrian Grey, Viridian, and Cricket Ball. Dual-tone or satin finishes are offered on request.
Interior options are virtually limitless, with 15+ leather colors, 8 wood veneer choices, and exclusive materials like open-pore koa, engine-turned aluminum, carbon fiber, and piano black lacquer.
Seating configurations include:
5-seat (standard)
4-seat luxury (Executive rear console)
7-seat (optional in standard wheelbase)
4-seat "Airline Seat Spec" in the Bentayga EWB — featuring 40° recline, postural massage, and climate-controlled rear comfort.
Wheels range from:
20” multi-spoke alloys to
22” directional polished, black-painted, or two-tone wheels on Speed and EWB trims.

vs Competitors
The Bentayga competes with the Rolls-Royce Cullinan, Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600, Aston Martin DBX, Range Rover SV, and Lamborghini Urus. Among these, the Bentayga blends ultimate luxury and customization with surprisingly agile performance. The Bentayga Speed (with W12) is one of the fastest SUVs in the world, while the Hybrid offers whisper-quiet city cruising.
Compared to the Cullinan, the Bentayga is sportier and more driver-focused. Against the Urus, it's quieter and more refined. The EWB targets the chauffeured elite, offering the most luxurious rear seat in any SUV, per Bentley’s own testing.
Fun Fact
The Bentley Bentayga Speed W12 holds the record for the fastest production SUV (top speed 190 mph / 306 km/h) — at the time of release, beating the Lamborghini Urus by a whisker. Meanwhile, the Bentayga Hybrid became Bentley’s first electrified vehicle, leading the brand’s shift toward full electrification by 2030.
