Bentley Motors sekali lagi menetapkan penanda aras baharu dalam segmen SUV mewah dengan pelancaran model paling berprestasi dalam barisan Bentayga – Bentayga Speed. Menampilkan enjin baharu 4.0 liter V8 twin-turbo, model ini bukan sahaja mengatasi varian W12 sebelumnya, malah kini menjadi SUV paling pantas dan paling dinamik pernah dihasilkan oleh Bentley.

Di tengah-tengah jentera berprestasi tinggi ini terletak enjin V8 berkuasa 650PS dan tork 850Nm, membolehkan pecutan dari 0 ke 100 km/j hanya dalam 3.4 saat, dengan kelajuan maksimum mencecah 310 km/j. Prestasi luar biasa ini menjadikan Bentayga Speed sebagai pilihan utama dalam kalangan SUV mewah berorientasikan prestasi tinggi.

Namun, Bentayga Speed bukan sekadar tentang kelajuan. Enjin baharu ini direka bukan sahaja untuk kuasa, tetapi untuk akustik. Sistem ekzos sport standard menghasilkan bunyi yang kaya dan bertenaga, dipadankan dengan paip ekzos elips berkembar yang menyerlah. Bagi mereka yang mahukan pengalaman akustik lebih agresif, Bentley turut menawarkan ekzos Titanium Akrapovič sebagai pilihan, dengan empat paip ekzos dan nota enjin yang lebih dalam serta mendalam.

Bentley Motors has redefined the boundaries of performance in the luxury SUV segment with the launch of its most formidable Bentayga to date. The new Bentayga Speed, equipped with a newly developed 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine, is now the fastest, most dynamically capable, and engaging model in the Bentayga family, surpassing even the previous W12-powered variant.

The powerplant at the heart of this flagship SUV delivers 650PS and 850Nm of torque, pushing the Bentayga Speed from 0 to 100km/h in just 3.4 seconds. Its top speed reaches a formidable 310km/h, setting new performance benchmarks for Bentley’s high-riding grand tourer. The V8’s muscular powerband, delivered smoothly between 2,250 and 4,500 rpm, ensures a constant surge of acceleration, true to Bentley’s performance ethos.

Beyond its raw figures, this latest engine is engineered for character and acoustics. A standard sports exhaust system provides a rich and sonorous soundtrack, augmented by distinctive dual elliptical tailpipes. For those seeking even more auditory drama, the optional Titanium Akrapovič exhaust intensifies the aural experience, complete with quad tailpipes and a deeper, more aggressive note.

Bentley Kuala Lumpur has officially unveiled the fourth-generation Continental GT Speed, ushering in a bold new chapter in the marque’s storied 21-year journey of producing luxurious, high-performance grand tourers. This latest iteration stands as the most technologically advanced and visually transformative Continental GT to date, blending thrilling supercar performance with refined craftsmanship and everyday usability.

Drawing inspiration from Bentley’s coachbuilt masterpieces such as the Bacalar and Batur, the new Continental GT Speed introduces the most dramatic design overhaul in two decades. The sleek, muscular silhouette now features single front headlamps—a stylistic nod to Bentley models of the 1950s. The front fascia has been reimagined with integrated, body-coloured aerodynamic elements, giving it a cleaner and more assertive stance.

At the rear, the grand tourer now boasts wider taillight graphics, a reprofiled bumper, and a fixed aerodynamic boot lid, which eliminates the need for a deployable spoiler. Enhancing its road presence are newly designed 22-inch alloy wheels, inspired by the powerful stance of a tiger. These are available in various finishes, including gloss black, silver, and a dark tint with polished details, further underlining the car’s dynamic yet elegant character.

Beneath its striking exterior lies the heart of a technological revolution. The fourth-generation GT Speed debuts Bentley’s new Ultra Performance Hybrid powertrain, pairing a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine (producing 600 PS and 800 Nm of torque) with a 190 PS electric motor. Together, they deliver a formidable 782 PS and 1,000 Nm of torque—translating to an 11% increase in torque and a 19% boost in power compared to the previous W12-powered GT Speed.

Bentley mempercepatkan transformasi elektriknya dengan meluaskan portfolio kenderaan elektrik (EV) sebagai sebahagian daripada strategi Beyond 100 Plus, yang menyasarkan neutraliti karbon penuh menjelang 2035. Bermula dengan pengenalan Bentayga Hybrid pada 2018, Bentley kini menawarkan versi hibrid plug-in untuk Continental GT dan Flying Spur. Kini, jenama mewah ini bersiap sedia untuk melancarkan EV sepenuhnya yang pertama pada 2026, sebuah SUV crossover mewah.

Model EV Baharu Bentley
SUV crossover ini dijangka bersaiz lebih kecil berbanding model Bentley sedia ada, dengan panjang di bawah 5003 mm. Ia dikatakan serupa dengan Porsche Cayenne atau Audi Q7 dari segi dimensi dan mungkin berkongsi platform dengan Porsche Cayenne EV yang bakal datang. Menurut CEO Bentley, Frank-Steffen Walliser, model ini akan mengutamakan jarak pemanduan yang boleh dipercayai dan kelajuan pengecasan, dua aspek penting bagi pelanggan kenderaan mewah.

Walliser juga menekankan bahawa Bentley akan memastikan model EV ini mengekalkan kualiti kemewahan dan keunikan jenama, meskipun tanpa bunyi enjin pembakaran. Dalam menyampaikan pengalaman emosi yang serupa dengan enjin tradisional, Matthias Rabe, ahli lembaga Bentley, memberi bayangan tentang penyelesaian inovatif yang bukan sekadar meniru bunyi enjin biasa.

Bentley is accelerating toward its electric future, building on a path that began with the introduction of the Bentayga Hybrid in 2018. With plug-in hybrid versions of the Continental GT and Flying Spur now available, the luxury automaker has officially announced plans for its first fully electric vehicle (EV), set to debut in 2026.

This new EV will be a luxury urban crossover SUV, described by Bentley’s new CEO, Frank-Steffen Walliser, as “compact” — a term that is relative in Bentley’s world. Measuring under 5003mm in length, it is expected to be similar in size to the Porsche Cayenne or Audi Q7 and will likely share its platform with the forthcoming Porsche Cayenne EV.

While Bentley has withheld technical details, Walliser emphasised that the upcoming model will prioritise usable range and charging speed to meet the demands of modern luxury car buyers. Addressing concerns about the transition to electric power, he assured, “We don’t want to make just any electric car; we want to make a Bentley.” The brand remains committed to preserving the unique qualities that define a Bentley, even without the traditional engine sound. Bentley board member Matthias Rabe hinted at innovative solutions to replicate the emotional experience of a combustion engine without merely copying conventional engine notes.
