Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

From the outside, the Mulliner is distinguished by its two-tone paint, chrome grilles in the lower fascia, color-matched lower bodywork, and 22-inch Paragon wheels with weighted centers that always display the Bentley logo upright. (The two-tone paint treatment, however, also will be offered on regular Bentaygas.)
Inside, the Mulliner continues to set itself apart with two-tone leather seating, a refrigerated compartment in the rear center console that also features storage for a pair of Cumbria Crystal flutes, customizable ambient lighting in 15 colors, illuminated sill plates, and special wood veneers that fade from burr walnut to black as they wrap around the cabin.

It's big, it's brash, it's heavy and it's officially the world's fastest SUV. Meet the Bentley Bentayga Speed.

Pros
It's the world's fastest SUV with a 306km/h top speed
Unique Alcantara upholstery is not only exquisite but holds you steady on track
Better throttle response and keener steering make this a more exciting Bentayga without any compromise to ride comfort in standard ride modes

Cons
You'll need a keen eye to spot the Speed over the standard W12 bar the badges
Styling will still be too discrete for some
Sports exhaust is optional as are carbon-ceramic brakes
