Bentley Bentayga Extended Wheelbase Azure India Launch On January 20

The Bentley Bentayga Extended Wheelbase Azure is all set to be launched in India on January 20. Several aesthetics and other elements will set the upcoming vehicle apart from the standard Bentayga SUV. The first for the upcoming Bentayga is the installation of rear-wheel steering. With a rear-wheel steering system, the car will have a turning radius that is 11.8 metres smaller than that of the standard Bentayga. However, the 48V active anti-roll system present in the current-gen Bentayga is standard. A 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 petrol engine with 542bhp and 770Nm of torque is available for the SUV. The engine will come mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Bentley claims the engine can reach 100km/h in 4.6 seconds and can attain a top speed of 290km/h.

The new EWB will have a 180mm longer wheelbase than that of the conventional model, resulting in more space for the second row of passengers. Additionally, the new model's doors will be substantially longer, giving the vehicle a more upscale appearance. The luxury four-wheeler is available worldwide in First Edition and Azure trims. Reportedly, the Azure trim will now get 22-inch 10-spoke wheels, Azure embroidery, and more. In terms of exterior design, the new EWB now sports a vertically slated prominent grille.
