Bentley Bentayga - 7-seater

The 2021 Bentley Bentayga V8 is where luxury meets muscle—a high-riding palace on wheels that hasn’t forgotten how to hustle. This isn’t just another posh SUV; it’s a refined beast with a 4.0L twin-turbo V8 churning out 542BHP and a neck-snapping 770NM of torque, rocketing you to 60mph in 4.4 seconds (yes, quicker than some sports cars). Compared to its earlier iterations, this model sharpens the formula—better tech, more customization, and that signature Bentley opulence turned up a notch. What’s new? For starters, the Mulliner Driving Specification elevates the cabin with diamond-brushed aluminum trim, Beluga leather (so soft you’ll want to pet it), and 7-seat flexibility—a rare find in Bentaygas. The 22" directional alloys and carbon fiber kit (splitter, spoiler, side skirts) give it a meaner stance, while adaptive air suspension ensures it glides over bumps like a magic carpet. Inside, it’s a tech playground: panoramic sunroof, heated/ventilated massaging seats, four-zone climate control, and mood lighting for that nightclub-at-dusk vibe. The massive 12.3" touchscreen keeps things modern, though Bentley wisely retains physical knobs for the important stuff (because who wants to swipe through menus to adjust the AC?). Compared to the W12 version, the V8 is lighter, nimbler, and slightly thirstier, but with 21.7mpg, it’s surprisingly reasonable for a near-2.5-ton SUV. The acoustic glazing and rear privacy glass keep the cabin library-quiet, while the LED welcome lamps and soft-close doors remind you—every time you step in—that this is Bentley territory. The verdict? It’s a Swiss Army knife of luxury: brutal when you stomp the pedal, serene when you cruise, and packed with quirks like illuminated treadplates. If you want an SUV that out-glamours a Range Rover but still shreds backroads, this is it.
