Not so long ago, Bentley CEO Wolfgang Dûrhajmer promised that new Bentayga becomes the fastest SUV in the world series. The bold statement was followed by an immediate response. Vice President r and d Porsche and its namesake Wolfgang Hatz flatly stated in an interview with Car and Driver: the Brits can boast as many as his top W12, but on the way Porsche Cayenne will still be faster Bentayga.
Here the question is about the next generation Cayenne, which is expected to become much easier and receive the newest development in the Zuffenhausen area of the motor. But Hutz stressed that to give Bentley does not intend, and the current Cayenne, especially in Turbo S guise, which recently debuted in Detroit. Recall that this version of the crossover for the first time in the history of his class went from 8 minutes on the Nurburgring; its 4.8-liter, 570-horsepower twin-turbo V8 accelerates to 100 km/h in 4.1 seconds and a little bit not up to 300 km/h maximum speed.
Perhaps the maximum speed Bentayga and will be 2-3 km/h faster, but so what? With a 12-cylinder engine it is not surprising. On the road, our car will still be much faster — boasts the Hatz. Well, when Bentley Bentayga will finally be released on the market (and it will happen in 2015), we will have a real battle of the giants. Despite the fact that Bentley, and Porsche is owned by Volkswagen Group, wrestling Nanai boys here and does not smell — the crossover will share the market seriously. Who are you putting on?
