SPIED + VIDEO: The All-New Bentley Bentayga Takes On The Nürburgring — We Now Know What Its Strong Suit Will NOT Be

One vehicle we've been eager to see unveiled is the all-new Bentley sport-utility vehicle. Dubbed the Bentayga, it seems like Volkswagen's naming department took that one on. :/

We've been wondering what type of SUV the Bentayga will be and thanks to all-new video published recently, I think we can draw a at least one conclusion.

**SEE the all-new Bentley Bentayga's interior TEASED here!

Though the camouflage has not been taken off, it's clear that this is a big, long and heavy SUV. This shouldn't come as much of a surprise to anyone who knows a thing or two about Bentley, but if you had any hopes of a sports car-like SUV, you can erase them now.

Remember, Bentley makes sporting cars, not sports cars.

Check out the clip below if you want to have a laugh. I think the Mercedes-Maybach S600 had an easier time around the 'Ring when it went through its trials.


Today I spotted for the first time the all new Bentley Bentayga. At the end of the day he did a few test laps on the famous Nordschleife.

This is Bentley's first SUV. The Bentayga will be available in W12 engine and V8 and plug-in hybrid.

What are those 3 lines in front of the rear wheels? Is that camo or for real? (Can't tell these days).

Looks like stickers to throw your attention off from the real line that is actually there.

Expect one line there as you see on the 2016 Continental GT.

Is it me or does it look like a London hackney carriage?

Companies have to wake-up and smell the burnt rubber here... This isn't a ring car, never will be. Why in the world would you take it there is beyond me. It won't post anything credible and you can certainly test the steering, chassis and breaks in a different - and probably more meaningful - manner.

This trend is bordering on the ridicule.

They are probably testing the brakes to see if they break. LOL We can ridicule this car but that would be ridiculous in my opinion.

Plain, bordering on ugly...

I think it is challenging the old Pontiac Aztec to an "ugly" showdown. Its not a handsome vehicle, is it?
