2021 Bentley Bentayga Speed Teased, Debuts Next Week

Bentley is cutting out the middleman as they’ve released official ‘spy’ photos of the upcoming Bentayga Speed.

Set to be unveiled on August 11th at 7:01 pm (August 12th at 00:01 BST), the 2021 Bentayga Speed will follow in the footsteps of the standard model which received a facelift in June.

As a result, the crossover has a new front fascia with a revised grille that is flanked by restyled headlights. The model also features larger air intakes and a revised front spoiler.

The styling changes continue out back as there’s a new tailgate with oval-shaped lights. The crossover has also been equipped with a sportier rear bumper and a four-tailpipe exhaust system that is separated by a prominent diffuser.

Bentley didn’t release interior pictures, but we can expect improved seats and a new steering wheel. There will also be a digital instrument cluster and a new 10.9-inch infotainment system.

Since the outgoing Bentayga Speed was introduced a little over a year ago, the facelifted model will likely retain its 6.0-liter W12 engine. It produces 626 hp (467 kW / 635 PS) and 664 lb-ft (900 Nm) of torque.

The engine should be connected to an eight-speed automatic transmission which sends power to a standard all-wheel drive system. This setup enables the current model to rocket from 0-62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.9 seconds, before hitting a top speed of 190 mph (305 km/h).

Of course, few will ever get to experience the power and luxury of the Bentayga Speed as pricing should start around $236,000.
