Bentley freshened up the Bentayga's styling for 2021 with a more upright grille, new taillamps, and updated wheel designs. The SUV takes styling cues from the brand's new Continental GT coupe and Flying Spur sedan. The Bentayga's cabin sees a new 10.9-inch infotainment display, tweaked dashboard styling, Apple CarPlay compatibility, a revised rear-seat entertainment system, and a wireless smartphone charging pad.
PROS Refined gas-powered engines, optional hybrid powertrain, cosseting cabin.
CONS Exterior styling isn't for everyone, eye-popping starting price, best features cost extra.
Pros Sledgehammer performance Surprisingly good fun to drive Superbly luxurious interior
Cons Ungainly looks from some angles Audi influences around cabin A Range Rover is roomier
PROS Sportier looks New tech and better interior Powerful and fast
CONS Still heavy Oval taillights look funky
The two-door "90" body style sees increased availability for 2021 and now comes in base, S, X, First Edition, and new X-Dynamic trims. Speaking of X-Dynamic, this new trim level is also now available on the four-door "110" model and provides the appearance items from the top-spec X without the expensive off-road-tech features, such as the adjustable air suspension and active differential.
PROS Legendary off-road abilities, smooth on-road ride, nicely outfitted cabin.
CONS Six-cylinder engine isn't as perky as expected, best accessories and options add a lot to the bottom line, brakes are difficult to smoothly modulate.
