It accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 4.1 seconds and has a top speed of 301 km/h. In addition, the carmaker's "variable displacement" technology, which turns off six cylinders under certain conditions, as well as an advanced "Start-Stop" technology, come together to provide a 11.9 percent increase in fuel economy from current engine systems.

The Bentayga can also be driven in "cruise" mode for maximum energy efficiency. In this mode, all the engines' power and torque is available should the driver need it to accelerate quickly or climb a steep hill.

The most impressive aspect is its outstanding ability to surmount difficult off-road conditions such as waterlogged, muddy, uneven and gravelled terrain.

All of these features combine to deliver best-in-class vehicle stability, ride comfort and the unique ability to handle the toughest of environments with absolute confidence and total control.
