Surpassing its renowned W12-powered predecessor, the 2026 Bentley Bentayga Speed delivers heightened power and performance, paired with the most advanced chassis configuration ever fitted to a Bentayga. For the first time, it introduces the capability to induce on-throttle slip angles—marking a new benchmark in dynamic ability for Bentley’s ultimate performance SUV.
The new Bentayga Speed takes driving performance to the next level with major upgrades to its chassis technology. An enhanced SPORT mode sharpens handling, while a new ESC Dynamic setting lets drivers choose between maximum grip or controlled on-power slides for a more involved, thrilling experience. Paired with its powerful engine, this advanced setup firmly establishes the Bentayga Speed as the ultimate performance SUV in the Bentley lineup.

At the heart of the new Bentayga Speed lies a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine, delivering a commanding 650 PS (641 bhp / 478 kW) and propelling the SUV from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds. This marks a significant leap over the Bentayga V8 S (4.4 seconds) and even outpaces the previous W12-powered Bentayga Speed’s 3.9-second benchmark. With peak torque of 850 Nm (627 lb.ft) available across a broad 2,250–4,500 rpm range, the powertrain maintains Bentley’s signature “torque plateau,” ensuring a seamless surge of acceleration and effortless performance in every driving scenario. With the Bentayga Speed, you'll reach a top speed of 193 mph.
The Bentayga Speed comes equipped with a standard Sports Exhaust system, delivering a deep, resonant engine note that perfectly matches the high-energy personality of its powerful V8. For those seeking an even more exhilarating sound experience, the optional Titanium Akrapovič Exhaust takes things further—amplifying the V8’s roar with a sharper, more aggressive tone that reflects its performance potential at the slightest press of the throttle. This system is finished with distinctive quad tailpipes, underscoring its race-inspired character.
Inside the Bentayga Speed, every detail speaks to its high-performance character. Unique to this model, you'll find a Speed-specific driver display, Speed badging to the passenger fascia and treadplates, and embroidered Speed emblems on the seat uppers. Bentley’s signature ‘bullseye’ air vents and organ stops can be finished in a sleek dark tint or traditional chrome. The seat shoulder panels, door panels, and rear backboard (in four-seat versions) showcase a striking new Precision Diamond quilt pattern. A dramatic color split defines the cabin, with a dark secondary hide setting the tone—accented by pops of the main leather color on the seat edges, doors, and instrument panel. It’s performance luxury, perfectly tailored.

The new Bentayga Speed stands out with bold, unmistakable design details. Dark tint brightware and chrome Speed badges on the front doors give it a commanding presence, while 22” Speed wheels—available in dark tint or silver at no extra cost—add to its aggressive stance. The unique Speed headlamps and grey tail lamps both feature dark tinted bezels for a stealthy look. A first for Bentley, a 23” Speed wheel is now available when carbon ceramic brakes are selected, with finishes in grey satin, black, or a striking black and bright machined combo. Painted brake calipers come in seven vibrant colors, whether you choose standard brakes or upgrade to the carbon ceramic setup.
Exclusive to the Bentayga Speed, the optional black roof adds a bold finishing touch. Available in gloss or satin—depending on your chosen body color—it extends to the lower section of the tailgate spoiler for a sleek, unified look. The result is a striking contrast that enhances the SUV’s powerful and confident presence on the road.
