It’s all in the name of luxury

ANYONE wanting to buy the top of the range SUV will have to wait for Bentley’s latest offering.

The Crewe-based luxury car maker is still keeping tight-lipped about what will be its latest offering, when it goes on sale in 2016.

All that it has revealed is its name – the Bentley Bentayga – and a promise that it will “combine pinnacle luxury and performance.”

The ground-breaking luxury SUV is set to be revealed to the world later this year and the car manufacturer says the “sector-defining” SUV will be able to “introduce Bentley’s renowned modern British luxury to limitless destinations with an impressive combination of on and off-road performance.”

The name for the fourwheel drive is said to be inspired partly from the founder’s name and partly from the natural world. That is the Taiga in the north and also to the south, the rugged peak of the Roque Bentayga in the subtropical Canary Islands.

The car is supposed to reflect the rugged beauty of both areas.

Wolfgang Dürheimer, Chairman and CEO of Bentley Motors, said: “Bentayga is a name that reflects what we know our SUV will do better than any other car in the world – combine the best automotive luxury with outstanding performance to take the Bentley experience to new environments.”
