Al Habtoor Motors has launched the newest member of the Bentayga family, the S, to customers in the UAE.
With the new Bentayga S, Bentley is bringing an extra sporting element to the Bentayga family. With striking design cues and unique detailing, the Bentayga S is the latest version of Bentley’s benchmark, go-anywhere luxury SUV, and builds on Bentley’s established ‘S’ brand, which provides an even more engaging drive, with Bentley Dynamic Ride active anti-roll control fitted as standard and an enhanced Sports chassis mode. A 15 per cent increase in damping stiffens the chassis and provides a platform for a more dynamic SPORT mode ESC tune.Joseph Tayar, Director, Al Habtoor Motor’s Prestige Division stated: “The new Bentayga S is distinguished by a range of notable exterior features, including new unique 22” wheels with three finishes, innovative ‘S’ badges positioned on the lower edge of the front doors, and Blackline Specification as standard. It reflects feedback from a large portion of our customer base in the UAE that enjoy the dynamic performance of their Bentayga, but want that little bit extra. We look forward to welcoming customers to our showrooms to see the car’s revised physical prowess and exceeding all their expectations.’
The Bentayga S features Bentley’s renowned 4.0-litre, twin-scroll turbocharged V8 petrol engine, combining immense power with impressive fuel economy. The latest-generation engine develops 542 bhp (550 PS) and 568 lb.ft. (770 Nm) of torque, with a 0-60 mph (0–100 km/h) time of 4.4 (4.5) seconds and a top speed of 180 mph (290 km/h). This class-leading performance is complemented by a range of 406 miles (654 km), with CO2 emissions of 294 g/km.
The Bentayga’s comprehensive off-road abilities remain, with the optional All-Terrain Specification bringing four dedicated off-road modes. Deploying the power as effectively as possible, Bentley Dynamic Ride is fitted as standard and was the world’s first electric active roll control technology that utilises an unrivalled 48V system. The Bentayga S offers increased capability through an enhanced SPORT mode over a standard Bentayga. Recalibration of Bentley’s Torque Vectoring by Brake system has made Bentayga S even more responsive to drive.
The introduction of a new, unique and modern seat design provides a more sporting aesthetic. The new stitching design defines the fluting, available to match either the primary or secondary hide colour.
A unique and elegant fascia badge adorns the dashboard in front of the passenger, with a similarly themed, illuminated Bentayga S treadplate. The Bentayga S shares a fully digital driver’s information panel, which can be customised to the driver’s requirements and features real-time lighting effects, with the Bentayga Speed.
