Bentley Bentayga V8 Mod. 2022. The extended version of the Bentley Bentayga is almost ready to debut.
It is already known that Bentley Bentayga will get a version with an extended wheelbase.
Rumors about this went around in the network for several years, but there was no official confirmation.
However, last year the Bentayga prototype with an elongated wheelbase was first seen in the lenses of photographers.
It was reported that the model would debut in 2021, but its launch appears to have been delayed.
Bentley continues to test the extended Bentayga on public roads.
This time, the car was spotted in Sweden. Despite the camouflage «Beyond 100», the prototype tries hard to hide the increased size of the rear doors.
The length of the current version of the car is 5140 mm and the wheelbase is 2995 mm.
Bentley Bentayga V8 Mod. 2022.
In the upcoming lengthened modification, these figures will naturally increase. The crossover will debut in the markets of China and the Middle East.
As we all know, Chinese motorists prefer cars with a long wheelbase, which prompts manufacturers to produce exclusive versions for this country to capture an increasingly growing market.
For example, the Mercedes C-Class LWB and the BMW 5-Series Li are already on sale here.
Most likely, the extended version of the Bentley Bentayga LWB will not differ much from the usual crossover.
It will be made in the style of the standard updated model, although the configuration of the interior may be a little different because of the more spacious second row and in accordance with the requirements of the target market.
As for the powertrain, it has not yet been confirmed. The current choices are the V8 and W12.
Also, the car is bound to get a hybrid modification.
The V8 and hybrid will be the more likely candidates, as the W12 requires a hefty surcharge due to taxes.
The official introduction of the extended variation of the Bentley Bentayga will take place in the first half of 2022.
