Bentley Motors – Bentayga X: See it on our 2026 Concept Lawn

August 15, 2026

This unique Bentayga X Concept has been developed to stimulate and gain feedback for an enhanced off-road-capable Bentayga. The core SUV is already known for its breadth of abilities, offering incredible performance, luxurious comfort and refinement, and off-road capability.

It is based on a Bentayga Speed, with a 650 PS 4.0-liter twin turbo V8 engine, with permanent four-wheel drive and an eight-speed transmission. Air suspension is complemented by Bentley Dynamic Ride, Bentley’s 48V electric active anti-roll control system.

The stance and presence have significantly changed with forged single-piece 22″ wheel rims, created by specialists at Brixton, with large aspect ratio off-road tires. The track width has increased by 120 mm to enhance stability, and the ride height has been increased by 55 mm, for maximized suspension travel and ground clearance. To accommodate these changes the wheel arches have also moved outboard by 40 mm. The changes lead to a wading depth of over 550 mm and a ground clearance of just under 310 mm.

The exterior appearance has been kept functional, with roof-mounted storage and four spotlights to enable longer off-road adventures. In the case of the concept, an electric Bambino-size Go Kart (as used in the FAT Karting League) demonstrates the additional cargo ability. These roof additions bring the overall height of the Bentayga X Concept to 2.49 meters. To the rear of the car the titanium sports exhaust from Akrapovic remains prominent, along with the addition of twin towing eyes at the front.
