Bentley has released the first teaser video of the facelifted Bentayga, ahead of its debut on June 30th at 17:00 p.m BST (12:00 p.m. EST).
The company is keeping details under wraps, but said the crossover will “continue to be the fastest, most luxurious and most versatile SUV in the world, offering a true Bentley driving experience and showcasing unparalleled luxury combined with effortless performance and everyday usability.”
The company went on to say the model will offer a “choice of seating configurations and powertrains, including a plug-in hybrid.” The latter will likely be updated as Bentley said the 2021 Bentayga will become their first model launched under the Beyond100 strategy which is billed as a “journey that will see the company become the world leader in sustainable luxury mobility.”
While Bentley didn’t go into specifics, the teaser video provides a glimpse at the crossover’s restyled headlights and new digital instrument cluster. We can also see a familiar steering wheel, an analog clock and Naim speakers.

Bentley might be playing coy, but a purported photo surfaced on social media last week. It showed the crossover will have a Flying Spur inspired front fascia with a wider grille and a revised bumper. The crossover’s controversial headlights have also been replaced by more conventional looking units.
The same post included pictures of the interior which revealed a new infotainment system. They also showed a revised center stack with new switchgear and restyled air vents.
Engine options are expected to carryover and include a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 with 542 hp (404 kW / 550 PS) and 568 lb-ft (770 Nm) of torque. There should also be a twin-turbo 6.0-liter W12 with outputs of 600 hp (447 kW / 608 PS) and 626 hp (467 kW / 635 PS). They’ll be joined by the aforementioned plug-in hybrid variant which currently has an electric-only range of 18 miles (29 km) according to the EPA.
