Bentley Bentayga EWB

The cabin of the Bentley Bentayga EWB feels ultra-opulent, comfortable, and rich in appeal. There is plenty of attention to detail and use of expensive and top-class elements and layers. With multiple options for hides and leather of high-quality materials, the cabin feels extremely luxurious.  

The interior of the Bentley Bentayga has a wide and enveloping design, thanks to the winged ‘B’-inspired cockpit. The four-seater cabin of the SUV has a centre console that flows to the rear seats in a continuous pattern. This flowing tunnel emerging from the center console runs towards the rear while accommodating a touchscreen remote, USB-C ports, and wireless charging for the convenience of rear seat occupants. The ambient mood lighting comprising multiple color combinations and waterfall lighting with six color combinations add to the sheer glory of the cabin.

The cabin of the Bentley Bentayga EWB further proves its magnificence with the top-order comfort and convenience features, comprising a 10.9-inch touchscreen infotainment system, full-TFT instrument console, all-four powered seats with massage, heating and ventilation functions, air ionisers, four-zone automatic climate control, Naim for Bentley premium audio system, front and rear wireless chargers and USB-C chargers and heated and electrically-adjustable steering wheel.

With its authoritative stance, road presence, and impeccable attention to detail with premium elements all around, the Bentley Bentayga EWB truly justifies its premium flagship positioning. As expected, Bentley has used some of the expensive materials for its components, which give bling and character to the exterior. 

At the front, the Bentley Bentayga EWB looks inspired by other Bentley cars and coupes, which is evident in the design of the grille and the headlamps. This SUV features dual elliptical headlamps, the highlight of which is the brand’s signature ‘crystal cut’ design. The trapezoidal grille with mildly rounded edges has different appearances in different versions of the Bentley Bentayga EWB. While the grille has a simple design, it does look imposing on the wide front end of the SUV. 

The Bentley Bentayga EWB also catches one’s attention with the prestigious winged ‘B’ on the front. The side profile of the SUV has the signature ‘power line’ that runs from the front to the rear and a prominent bulge over the rear fenders that gives it a sense of continuity and muscularity. A major contributor to the elegant stance of the Bentayga EWB is its wide number of options for alloy wheels, which measure up to 23 inches. 

The visual appearance of the Bentley Bentayga possesses a lot of richness and elegance, with the contrast of silver valances on the front and rear bumpers. The rear profile of the Bentayga EWB has elliptical LED tail lamps and a sporty roof spoiler, with the former also having creative detailing of crystals within them. 

The prime focus of the Bentley Bentayga EWB is to make the inner occupants feel as pampered and comfortable as possible. The SUV goes the extra mile with an array of driving aids and electronics and air suspension with a continuous damping system, Bentley Dynamic Ride, all-wheel steering, and Torsen All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system and four on-road driving modes – comfort, sport, custom, and Bentley (combination of sport and custom).

Besides offering a magic carpet-like ride experience, the Bentley Bentayga EWB is also capable of gliding over rougher surfaces with four additional settings in the drive mode selector. These settings include ‘snow and grass’ for low friction surfaces, ‘mud and trail’ for slippery and muddy terrains, ‘dirt and gravel’ for driving over loose debris, and ‘sand’ for driving over loose dunes.

Shared with the Continental GT coupe, the 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged petrol engine serves as the standard engine on offer in the Bentley Bentayga EWB. This engine is paired with an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and an all-wheel-drive system and churns out a maximum power output of 550 PS and a maximum torque output of 770 Nm. Along with a top speed claim of 290 mph, the Bentley Bentayga EWB can also make the 0-100 mph sprint in 4.5 seconds. 

The array of safety features available as standard in the Bentley Bentayga EWB includes Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) with Traction Control (TCS), Drag Torque Control (MSR), ABS with EBD and brake assist, Roll-Over Mitigation (ROM), Trailer Sway Mitigation (TSM), Electronic Diff Lock (EDL), Hill Descent Control (HDC) and ESC off-road mode. Other safety essentials present in the Bentayga EWB are adaptive low beam, Blind Spot Assist, electronic parking brake, front and rear Park Distance Control, ten airbags, rain-sensing wipers, Bentley Safeguard, Exit warning, High Beam Assist, tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) and more.

A full-fledged attempt of the highest order, the Bentley Bentayga EWB promises uncompromised luxury, immense attention to detailing, and a top-class feel in drive and ride quality experience. It is one of those SUVs that feels worth every penny despite costing astronomically high.
