Bentley broke with tradition with its first-ever SUV, the Bentayga, and now the luxury carmaker is stepping further from its 'Harris Tweed' image with the new Bentayga Diesel.
But in typical Bentley style, power and torque have not been left to chance thanks to the new diesel’s 4.0 litre and eight-cylinder capacity, with figures of 320kW and 900Nm respectively.
The diesel is force-fed by two twin-scroll turbochargers and a supercharger; powered not by the engine but the Bentayga's 48-volt electrical system.
Power is sent to all four wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission, with power split 40:60 front to rear.
