Every year, the popularity of crossover cars is only growing, and this applies to representatives of any price segment. But special competition is noted in the premium class, which includes the legendary carmaker Benltey with the flagship of the market Bentayga.
In order not to lose the popularity of the model, the brand's engineers regularly update it by restyling. In the course of the next upgrade, the novelty received a modified body design with features from Continental GT and Flying Spur, as well as new interior equipment, where the lucky owner will find luxurious finishing materials and rich on-board equipment with an increased class of comfort. At the same time, the technical characteristics of the model will be the same as those of the previous version, released before restyling.
External appearance
The exterior design of the Benltey Bentayga body has gone through a number of global changes, so the new product is seriously different in terms of its exterior from other representatives of the lineup. The updated body retains the classic large dimensions, but the design of individual parts and accents has changed a lot.
When reviewing the exterior images, you can see a large number of stepped and wavy relief inserts, a modified configuration of the head optics, as well as massive air intakes. In addition, the exterior is adorned with many chrome details, original rims and other design integrations.
The novelty is identified by:
- panoramic windscreen and stepped bonnet sides with tapered leading edge;
- paired headlight units in front;
- coarse-mesh radiator grille with rectangular configuration.
The front projection of the car is characterized by maximum aggression and elegance. For her, designers have allocated a lot of space, since a large-sized engine is installed under the hood. In addition, the "muzzle" received a fairly high landing, which is due to the model's belonging to the class of crossovers. And to improve visibility from the driver's seat, the developers also increased the inclination of the front end.
Decorative accents are already seen on the bonnet, with lightly embossed surfaces that take on a wave-like style. The structure bears the Bentley corporate logo, followed by a massive rectangular air intake grille. It is distinguished by easy recession in the body and elegant chrome plating. Also, a fine mesh is painted in chrome, which is located under the body.
Additional aggression of the front of the machine is given by the configuration of the head optics, which consists of a pair of lenses with different sizes on the sides in the shape of an oval. Starting from the "base", the headlights are equipped with LED equipment.
The front body kit looks no less stylish, which takes up a lot of space. The main part is equipped with auxiliary air intakes, designed to effectively cool the power plant and brakes. In addition to fine mesh grilles with different sizes and shapes, the body kit has a platform for the number sign and recesses for fog lights. Also, the design is decorated with several chrome inserts.
On the side, the 2021 Bentley Bentayga has become even more aggressive, while retaining an elegant and solid concept. The upper part of the profile consists of side glazing in a traditional shape. The windows themselves are divided into several sections by body pillars in high-gloss black. The perimeter has a chrome frame.
Together with the glass, you can find rear-view mirrors in the shape of a triangle. They are also complemented by repeaters of turn signals. A little further, there are a lot of embossed accents, decorative inserts on the front wheel arches, bulging sills and unusual large titanium rims. The door handles are recessed into the body and have an elegant design.
At the rear, the premium crossover follows the classic trends of this body type. In sight:
- oversized spoiler with reinforced side struts;
- competently combined sloped glazing with an aerodynamic protrusion;
- beautiful doors of the capacious luggage compartment, which are decorated with the corporate symbols of the auto concern;
- progressive graphics of lanterns with silver bezels.
The massive bumper includes a figured stamping for a license plate, elongated fog lamps and a fairly miniature body kit, on which there is a diffuser and four twin tailpipes of the exhaust system.
Despite the global restyling of the exterior, the designers have retained the recognizable features of corporate design that correspond to the model range, and at the same time have implemented a lot of progressive solutions. As a result, the 2021 Bentley Bentayga looks as stylish, luxurious and elegant as possible.

The comfort for passengers in the second row has improved markedly. The 5-seater layout at the back has updated seats with a doubled reclining of the backs and ventilation (as an option). If the four-seater option is selected, the seats will be split by a console and pushed towards the luggage compartment. This feature allows you to increase the stock of knee space by 30-100 mm. Also in the lineup, the 7-seater cabin layout has been preserved.
A 5-inch progressive tablet with touch control is provided to control comfort options. It is based on a 4-core chipset and has 1GB of RAM. Using the device, you can control the functions of heating, media center and massage package.

A package of electronic assistants is responsible for driving safety.
At full body dimensions, the luggage compartment has a capacity of 484 liters. The capacity can be increased to 1,774 liters by folding the second row of seats.
Specifications Bentley Bentayga 2021
The dimensions of the new 2021 Bentley Bentayga are in line with the nominal SUV body standards:
| Length, mm | 5141 |
| Width, mm | 1998 |
| Height, mm | 1742 |
| Distance between wheel axles, mm | 2992 |
| Clearance, mm | 155-245 |
The crossover is built on the basis of an innovative all-wheel drive "bogie" MLB. The air suspension has a multi-link architecture and comes with a full package of anti-roll bars and active safety features.
The line of power units is represented by gasoline and diesel engines with a volume of 4 to 6 liters. They generate 435 or 608 horsepower when paired with a limited-slip differential and an 8-band automatic power transmission.
In the course of multidisciplinary tests according to various criteria, the crossover showed itself from the best side, demonstrating a large margin of dynamism and driving performance, moderate fuel consumption and the most efficient operation of the technical filling in tandem with the electronic one.
In terms of technical equipment, the Bentley Bentayga 2021 is the best in its class, which is confirmed by the reviews of the owners.
The all-wheel drive layout allows the motor to distribute the load on the wheel axles in a 40/60 ratio, which increases flotation in the most difficult-to-reach points.
The six-liter engine has 608 horsepower and 900 Nm of rotational potential. It is equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission ZF, providing acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h in 4.5 seconds. The average fuel consumption per 100 km in mixed operating conditions is 12.8 liters, and the maximum speed is 290 km / h.
The advanced V8 is powered by two twin-scroll turbochargers that provide instant response to driver input and phenomenal rotational potential at speeds.
But despite the colossal dynamics, the power unit is efficient, because it uses start-stop technology with partial deactivation of the cylinders when there is no need for them to work.
When running, the engine emits a characteristic V8 sound that cannot be confused with anything else. As an option, you can order a sports exhaust system, which makes the engine rumbling even more intense and sporty.
Manufacturers are reporting the planned appearance of the W12 6.0 and Hybrid engines in a combination of an electric motor and a V6. The main competitors of the 2021 Bentley Bentayga include the Rolls-Royce Cullinan, Range Rover CBA and Aurus Komendant.
