You and Ben Wayne do the absolute best Bentley reviews on this planet. I just wish I could afford one. 😀
Badass car. Bentleys just have the best interiors since the s class went all ipad tablet on us for 2021.
MotoMan's intros are always so well written
Thank you, sir!
I do agree with your concerns about safety around putting every single control into the infotainment system rather then hard buttons and knobs in the centre console.
So if you were to pick only one or the other to buy, would it be the Bentayga, or the Maybach GLS?
The reason why the Bentley Dynamic Ride 48-volt system is optional, or the reason why it should be, is because it is not one for everyone. Same case with the E-active Body Control 48-volt system on some Mercedes-Benz. The ride makes some people carsick because the car is constantly adjusting itself underneath, and people notice that and can get carsick as a result. Once you get the system in your car...the is *NO* turning it off completely. It is not a matter of pulling off one or two components. It is the entire drive system. Take out the battery, the entire car's driving will fall apart...assuming the car is not undrivable. This system is just like aeroplane travel. It is not for everyone.
I wish all influencers would point out as you did the safety and complexity of “new screen technology. I have a new Cayenne, to change the radio station I have to hit media - favorites and finally scroll to the station I want. After all that I have to get back to the screen I want on like nav or home, and that is only the tip of the issues. My turbo Panamera had screen activated center vents, some sick bastard has to be chuckling himself to sleep.
Wouldn’t a maxed out S-class be as practical, faster, roomier and more luxurious than this for $20K less all in? This only works in the fantasy where you take it off road, and even then probably not.
never thought I'd be sitting in a Bentley with this guy
Love this guys reviews... All the real detail and tech we want to know.. Without the lame attempts at humour and bs so many other are into... He is the best
Can you review the Audi S8 ?
Hi,I’m a new subscriber,excellent review.Chris
Thanks, Chris!
I can completely appreciate the extra lighting touches for the facelift. HOWEVER, I think I prefer the old rear-end. This taillight design is more at home on a Flying Spur.
Are you sure the NAIM system has 1,400 watts of power? The new Conti has 2,000.
Great review though.
Basic fashion rule: your socks color have to match either the color of your shoes or your trousers. Yes even if you're an American, and particularly when you're driving a Bentley! ;-)
Love this review
Are you going to make a cullinan or urus review waiting for those eagerly
And the Flying Spur please :o)
Ok you’ve talked me out of the V12 I’ll take the V8 in dark blue please
Cayenne all the way ! This looks like a lincoln .
That suspension is automotive pornography.
Rear lights were placed too low imo
Looks like an Audi or even a VW from the outside. The Audi is limited to 155mph. But could go much faster.
Why do you say "Vmax" and not "top speed"? I think Vmax sounds cooler but I'm just curious.
The pilot in me.
#perfection
Bentleys are a bit of guilty pleasure for me (from afar, mind). Nice video - but you couldn't REMOVE YOUR SHOES when sitting in that nice carpeted cargo area? Tsk-tsk.
btw way you can not compare sq8 with this you need to drive rsq8 its way up
Please continue preaching physical knobs for the common functions! I was looking at Range Rovers a few weeks ago and JLR has completely lost the plot with Rovers. No hard buttons (capacitive touch on the steering wheel doesn't count) and two multi-function dials for the whole system. It's stupid. Bentley has found a VERY NICE middle ground, and they should hold that ground.
As you may have seen, I was drafted to become the poster boy for the cause . . . th-cam.com/video/Z6h8H7wd6kY/w-d-xo.html
@@MotoManTV I have seen. I've been following you for years, and I thank God you are okay now.
The britts? Its a german car 🙂
Compared to other luxury German SUV's, the new Bentayga is $100k too much money. There just isnt that much impressive or even tangible difference. Cast aluminum wheels, plastic chrome trim, flat black plastic around the shifter, manual reclining rear seats, etc..??? Fabric sun shade instead of alcantara? Top Flagship German SUV models dont leave these luxury amenities out. This Bentley should not be any more than $140k. Its a VAG product to begin with and I see too much of VAG with the interior parts. At this price point we can/should be critical so why is the drivers leather seats already showing wear with leather creases on the bottom bolster? Too many reviews will never point these issues out because they want to review the next RR or Bentley.
I can't decide if this car is really pretty or really ugly. Can it be both? :~|
Agreed, if I’m spending a fortune on an SUV I’d get me a more attractive knockout car
I would say it's extra plush like last century plush with all the leather, chrome etc. more a carriage then a car. Not my cup of tea. It will not age well.
Cu' cu' Settete' 🤚
Welcome Bentley Bentayga - same platform like Audi, Cayenne - Urus funny that the Porsche is the "cheap" car here?
All same ZF - heaviest but most leather Bentayga.
"Can we get rid of the Tupperware" in the engine bay please? that's a quote which will be used more often now! :)))))
Now the all important question
Which one will you choose?
@@paulm6481 Hi Paul, had to look the car up - the Yukon Denali is not sold over here and would not fit in any parking place - but very impressive car.
@@bavariancarenthusiast2722 If you're into plastic junk from GM, which I know you're not, so why feed the troll?
Point 1 go global and use the damn metric already
When one entire country prefers being the hicks from the sticks....
No more touch screens
Amen!
@@MotoManTV Safety first.
The rear end looks like Pepe the frog.
Now try to unsee that.
You are welcome.

Looks like they've changed the exterior styling quite a bit. The original MK-1 Bentayga was one of the ugliest SUVs I've ever seen; genuinely horrible design. The Audi Q7 it was based on was a far nicer looking vehicle.
It's subjective, but I'm not a fan of that rust-red interior leather at all either.
I just feel like he's taking away the whole idea of reviewing a car versus him sitting and lounging in a car garage .....bro it's a bentayga not a Ford mustang .....#tightenupp
Boníssim cotxe.tonq2.
Bentley have realized that if you are a peasant with new money and want to black out your Bentayga, you need to pay for the right to torture style that much ! Cashing in on bad taste. I think they should triple the price on that pack, so that these black abominations of specs are scarce on our eyes.
hideous
Those wheels look like they came off of the Lincoln Black Label Navigator. I'll take the five spokes any day.
Why doesn't MotoMan have more subscribers? I subscribe to a lot of TH-cam car review channels and he is right at the top for quality production and presentation. I have your back MotoMan.
Thank you, James!
With All that Money looking at RSQ8 territory
I’ll take three, good sir! Put it on my black card!
I'd saved more than half that money and get a much better looking Genesis GV80 well equipped with just about everything you need for sure.
Going to have to go back to your older videos to see if you always mispronounced the letter Z
I like that red interior! Great to see something other than the boring black, beige, and gray that are all-too-common. Don’t forget the HomeLink garage door opener - that’s optional (even though it’s standard in their least expensive VW models). And your discussion of physical switches, buttons, and knobs - why hasn’t the NTSB stepped in and regulated this?!? Don’t forget 747’s - we’ve got physical switches in our cockpit too!!!
I hear you on the weight of the V8 vs V12 but the 12 is usually smoother. I would be curious if the smoothness is something Bentley buyers would prefer.
Ugliest wheels and ugliest color I ever did see. If I were playing the Options Game those are the first things I’d change.
Definitely not a British market car, given the side the wheel is on :D (European perhaps)
Fun that paint is extra :P This example was just clear coated on the rustproofing :P
Imagine all the nice cars you can buy for each one of the specs here. I like Bentleys.
I like the red interior, stands out from the usual suspects. It works well with the bright work.
Did they replace the Breitling clock on the V8 with a generic one? It looks different than the one on the new Speed.
Overall, its better than the old one, but I'm not still not a fan.
M, can you sweet-talk them into giving you a Continental with the Côtes de Genève pack? Santa Maria Madre De Dios, that is something else!
Excellent work as always, M.
Must admit, the Côtes de Genève finish looks flash . . . but you know I am old fashioned and would do satin finish wood.
As for the clock, I, too, miss the Breitling.
Here I was watching the other Bentayga video from, what, 5 years ago now, just yesterday, lamenting that they never sent you one for a full review. Nice.
:)
Great job
I liked this review, and the car that much today was the third time I’ve watched it and still can’t afford it unless I can persuade my wife to live in a tent!
Having spent a lot of time in this thing, I can attest to the fact that its interior is bigger than some NYC apartments:)
buttons. Nearly every journo in the world , and maybe even you Motorman, bagged Porsche for its buttons, now you get cars that one must search a fricken menu while driving to change the vent angle..
2 things to learn, 1/ journos have no idea, 2/ car manufacturers have no idea as they listen to #1
Range Rover vs Bentayga, why will no one compare them? Not subjective looks, but ride qualty, dynamics....
I suggest you go back and look at old episodes - particularly first gen Porsche Panamera & Cayenne episodes.
@@MotoManTV I will check,,,,as I said, "maybe even you', you would be the only one that didnt! I love our Cayenne buttons, driven a few new ones and I'm not buying... but what about the Range Rover v Bentayga???????
All of them buttons are on the Steering Wheel
Moto man listen close bro .....it's annoying to see you do a disorientation of a car in the car garage ....are you a analyst or a mechanic and please lose the act it's getting old we know your British get over it!!!!!!
