Overview of the 2023 Bentley Bentayga
The 2023 Bentayga makes for a more practical daily driver and can also seat a family. It can be equipped with a plug-in-hybrid powertrain for those necessary commutes when gas prices are peaking, but can also be had with a twin-turbo V-8 or a mighty twin-turbo W-12.
The Bentayga’s luxury experience is much the same as you’ll get in many other luxury cars. It comes with rich leather, tasteful wood and metal trim, and plenty of tech features throughout its cabin.
The 2023 model comes with an extended-wheelbase body style. The longer body allows for more space in the rear seat so passengers can stretch out and relax. This model comes with a rear-wheel steering system which helps shrink the SUV’s turning radius. It also features Bentley’s new Diamond Illumination ambient lighting system which shines lights through hand-stitched leather panels. Two additional plug-in hybrid options join the lineup for 2023. Both of the new hybrid trims offer slightly more power and more electric-only driving range than the standard PHEV model at 455 horsepower and 27 miles of range.
What’s the Engine Capacity of the 2023 Bentley Bentayga
Bentley offers a variety of powertrains for the 2023 Bentayga. On the low end, is a turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 with electric motor that produces a 443-hp hybrid. The Azure and S hybrids offer a slightly more powerful 455-horsepower version of the electrified powertrain. Then, there’s the twin-turbo V8 engine that produces 542 hp. The Bentayga Speed gets a 626-hp W-12. Regardless of what’s under the hood, all Bentaygas utilize an eight-speed automatic transmission and come standard with all-wheel drive.
What’s the Fuel Economy of the 2023 Bentley Bentayga
The 2023 Bentayga is powered by a V-8 engine that produces 14 mpg city, 23 mpg highway, and 17 mpg combined isn’t bad for a large SUV, but the W-12 is. It earns estimates of 12 mpg city, 17 mpg highway, and 14 mpg combined. The EPA gives the Hybrid powertrain a rating of 18 city and 24 mpg on the highway.
While the base plug-in hybrid powertrain comes with a 13.0-kWh battery and only 18 miles of estimated electric driving range, the Azure and S hybrids sport a larger 18.0-kWh battery that is said to deliver up to 23 miles of electric-only motoring.
What’s the Interior of the 2023 Bentley Bentayga Like?
Filled with rich-smelling leather, real wood trim, and glitzy metal accents, the Bentayga’s cabin stays true to its luxury branding. Bentley allows buyers to customize just about everything. Buyers can opt for front and rear buckets, seating four, or they can select a three-across second-row bench and a pop-up two-seat third-row to seat seven.
While the rear seat doesn’t feel as lavish as that of the Rolls-Royce Cullinan, it still offers plenty of space for adult passengers to stretch out. The new long-wheelbase model offers more legroom and additional amenities, so that’s the one to buy if you’ll be carried by a driver. It’s offered only as a two-row vehicle and can be ordered with rear bucket seats that massage and recline up to 40 degrees.
Several different colours of leather upholstery are available, as are two different mother-of-pearl-faced Breitling dash clocks, a bottle cooler for rear-seat passengers, adjustable ambient interior lighting, and even a safe with a biometric lock and fingerprint reader. The Bentayga’s cargo area is generous, at least in two-row versions; we were able to fit nine carry-on suitcases back there.
All Bentayga models come standard with a 10.9-inch infotainment screen with navigation and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. The optional entertainment system consists of two 10.2-inch displays mounted to the front seat headrests. With it, rear-seat passengers can browse the web, interact with the Bentayga’s infotainment system, or play movies. A 12-speaker stereo is standard, but you can opt for Naim’s 20-speaker premium audio system.
What are Some of the Safety Features in the 2023 Bentley Bentayga?
The Bentley Bentayga comes equipped with loads of safety features. However, only a handful of it comes standard and they include:
- Automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection
- Lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist
- Adaptive cruise control and night-vision system
