Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

With a claimed top speed of 187 mph, Bentley boasts that the Bentayga is the fastest SUV in the world. The claim is made possible by a twin-turbo 6.0-liter W-12 that makes a mighty 600 hp; an eight-speed automatic drives all four wheels. A 542-hp 4.0-liter V-8 is also available. The interior can be configured to seat four or five, and only the finest leather will cosset those lucky posteriors. Options include 22-inch wheels, rear-entertainment tablets, and a 1950-watt, 20 speaker audio system.

Pros
V-8 burble,
tidier handling,
less expensive yet still decadent.

Cons
Still heavy,
V-8 doesn’t enhance its looks,
cool tech costs extra.

Outstanding forward visibility
Unusually quiet when on the road
Lots of cosmetic customization potential
