The company also says that this new Bentayga will be “faster and more agile” than any Bentley SUV before it, as well as the “most emotional and engaging Bentayga to date.” For reference, the Bentayga W-12 made 600 horsepower and could race to 60 miles per hour in 4.0 seconds flat before it was discontinued last year. Of course, we’ve already seen Bentley’s new V-8 hybrid powertrain in the metal, which makes nearly 740 horsepower and returns up to 50 miles of electric range (WLTP). Last May, the company said that this new hybrid powertrain would “define the future of Bentley"—so we assume this is what will be underhood of the upcoming Bentayga. But we won’t know for sure until the new Bentayga debuts. Bentley will show its powerful new SUV on Monday, June 2, at 7:00 AM ET (12:30 BST). Mark your calendars.
