With the introduction of the Bentayga Extended Wheelbase (EWB), a new grand touring SUV that builds on the strengths of the Bentayga to become a new luxury flagship, expanding the most recent product range to five models, Bentley Saudi Arabia is introducing a new focus on wellness to its model line. The Bentayga EWB is the outcome of a nine-figure investment by Bentley in order to develop a new model that offers the best rear cabin experience since Bentley's illustrious Mulsanne model while maintaining the Bentley hallmarks of effortless performance, exquisite handcraftsmanship, and endless personalization.
The first deliveries will be made in February 2023, with orders starting to be accepted in June 2022 in the opulent showrooms of Bentley Saudi Arabia in Riyadh, Khobar, and Jeddah.
Our first vehicle that is completely committed to the onboard wellness of its occupants is the Bentayga EWB. With the extended wheelbase, we've been able to go even farther thanks to the incorporation of world-first wellness technology built into our unmatched interior cabin design. Every Bentley delivers you to your destination feeling more at ease than when you started your journey, but with the extended wheelbase, we've been able to go even further. The Bentayga Extended Wheelbase is the ultimate luxury SUV to drive or be driven in thanks to these advancements and the extraordinary craftsmanship of the artisans at our carbon-neutral manufacturing in the UK, according to Peter Smith, General Manager of Bentley Saudi Arabia.
Since its debut in 2015, the Bentayga's popularity has defined and facilitated the expansion of the premium SUV sector. The Bentayga has established its credentials over the last seven years with real off-road ability, hybrid technology, record-breaking performance, and custom specifications. The Bentayga is still Bentley's best-selling vehicle and has come to serve as the standard by which other upscale SUVs are judged. The Bentayga Extended Wheelbase redefines the zenith once more.
Bentley sold a record-breaking 14,659 vehicles in 2021, which was a 31% increase over the previous high set in 2020. Just under a third of these vehicles were Bentaygas. According to feedback from Bentley consumers, design, technology, and performance are the three most crucial considerations when making a purchasing choice, with current owners placing the highest value on the driving qualities. Owners of luxury SUVs acknowledged in a recent survey that 82% of them use them every day, with 74% of those trips taking place in cities and urban settings.
Overview of the Bentayga EWB The Bentayga EWB improves upon the most recent second-generation Bentayga by adding 180 mm to the wheelbase and rear cabin area. The underfloor, side panels, door, and roof have all undergone Body-in-White alterations, ensuring that the lines and proportions continue to emanate flair and presence. The world's first auto climate and advanced postural adjustment rear seat, as well as a wider interior than any other premium competitor and a focus on wellbeing, provide extraordinary experiences.
Detailing Comfort and Wellness With the most technologically advanced seat ever installed in a vehicle, three distinct seat configurations, new twin air ionizers, and greater cabin space, the Bentayga EWB delivers the height of rear passenger enjoyment. A 4+1 seating arrangement is offered as standard, and the two outer rear seats offer exceptional comfort, 16 different ways to adjust them, heating, ventilation, and five different massage programs.
Crafted detail and seamless technology in interior design The Bentayga EWB's rear cabin establishes a new standard for fusing top-tier luxury and cutting-edge technology, exhibiting new heights of comfort and workmanship. Bentley's signature diamond quilting has been reinvented in a striking and modern new style. Like all great design, the finished product appears straightforward, but the meticulous attention to detail that went into it captures everything special about Bentley interiors.
Exterior design: make no concessions. The Bentayga EWB's 'Vertical Vane Grille' design draws inspiration from the Flying Spur's new grille and manages to be both stylish and eye-catching. Bright chrome vertical vanes set in front of a black mesh grille make up the distinctive grille. For the Bentayga EWB, a new mirror-polished version of the 22-inch 10-spoke Bentayga wheel is available. Chassis and Engine The new Bentayga has received favorable reviews for its dynamic features, including praise for its on-road performance, ride quality, and handling. With the addition of electronic all-wheel steering and Bentley Dynamic Ride as standard features, the Bentayga EWB maintains this philosophy.
developing and testing The Bentayga EWB features more than 2,500 new parts, including extensive body-in-white modifications and a whole new underfloor. New production procedures, layout modifications, and infrastructure built expressly for the new model have resulted from this. The new Bentayga EWB has undergone approximately 2,000 weeks of collective testing on over 50 pre-series vehicles to demonstrate its excellent credentials.
Superior Specification Bentayga Extended Wheelbase will launch with two improved specs. The Azure focuses on optimal comfort and well-being with an effortless drive and delivers exquisite and timeless design with distinctive trademarks. A unique 22" ten-spoke directional wheel, brilliant lower bumper grilles, and Azure embroidery and badging are just a few of the special features. Bentley Diamond Illumination, metal veneer overlays, Naim for Bentley Premium Audio, and LED welcome lamps are additional features of the First Edition standard. The embroidery, inlays, and badging are distinctive features of this style.
