Creating Trends for an Electrified Future
“Following Bentley tradition, the Bentayga Hybrid pioneers a new automotive sector—the luxury Hybrid—and sets Bentley on the path towards a sustainable electrified future.”
Adrian Hallmark, Bentley Motors Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
The new Bentley Bentayga Hybrid is everything that represents the luxury British brand, offering refinement, effortless performance and a relaxed environment. This hybrid model also marks Bentley’s first step towards full electrification, featuring an advanced electric motor and generator that offer a seamless driving experience with guaranteed maxi-mum electric-only range, in addition to a powerful 3.0-liter new-generation V6 petrol engine, with CO2 emissions of 75 g/km (NEDC).
To accommodate the electric mode, the infotainment screen, which indicates energy flow in each of the three E Modes, and the Driver’s Information Panel were revised to provide details on performance, consumption and energy source. The SUV was equipped with a dial that shows when the car is operating in EV Drive or engine speed, instead of the traditional tachometer. The vehicle also uses satellite navigation information to calculate e-motor or engine usage for each trip. Other features include Adaptive Cruise Control, Traffic Sign Recognition, Rear Crossing Traffic Warning, Electronic Night Vision, Head-Up Display, the Bentley Entertainment Tablet and three different sound systems.
The interior was designed with perfection in mind, outfitted with handcrafted wood and leather, paying special attention to the polished metallic details—the epitome of modern British luxury. The front seats were individually handcrafted in Crewe, in the county of Cheshire, England, with adjustable cushion and backrest holsters, providing exceptional comfort and support. The full-length panoramic sunroof allows ample natural sunlight to highlight the surfaces.
The Bentley Bentayga will become available to order in selected markets in the second half of 2018.
