The all-new Bentley Bentayga SUV costs $250,000, which is as much as three Range Rovers. Here's why.
Thank you to Morrie's Luxury Auto for the Bentayga!

doug: The new Jaguar...
I was not ready for this
i was searching for that comment thank you
Bro..... I was the same way
Smart comment, me too !
So i wasnt the only one
When the carmaker is from the same country, but way way WAAAAAAAAAYYYY more different in design and whatever else.
"If you've never floored it in a Bentley before".. I've never even breathed the same air as a Bentley, let alone floored one.
LMFAOOO😂😂
i live in qatar and EVERY ARAB has one of these. One time i went to Pearl Qatar (which is the craziest luxury place here) and saw a villa with a gold ferrari 812, matte copper rolls royce wraith, bentley bentayga, bentley continental both finished in matte gold AND a huge yacht at the back.
And im here struggling to buy a big mac.
How do they get that much money😂

I am sorry for hearing that..
I wouldn't be able to live there. All that wealth would drive me crazy. lol
depreciated 100k in a year lol
Créme de la Créme that'll make it easier for me to get
Lilliam Pumpernickle only 149k to go
Ikr they go for like literally half the price

@@TheNicheHunter You save that 149 for repairs though. Don't buy a house just yet.
There's an option for a front and side skirt that drops down to shove the proletariat away.
You can probably skip on those though, the standard soundproofing is so refined you won't hear them even if they do get jammed up in a wheelwell. Just get Jeeves to hose them out later.

you know your rich when you would smoke in a bently
I would never smoke in my 37 thousand dollar tacoma
i wouldent even smoke in 200 dollar 01 durango just for the fact i dont smoke and the interior is flawless ant trying to mess it up
Nate Eller Same, thats why I like mine, its pretty new. I had my 98 and i had a seat cover so i couldnt mess up the seat
never really been a fan of seat covers but i understand
And you know you're broke when you can't even spell Bentley. Or you're* for that matter lmao
ah, soft close doors? like the Mercedes S class from 1991?
iatsd or a grand freaking caravan
iatsd even Range Rover sport has that.
i am not the letter E pl
No, more like the Mercedes 600 (W100) from 1963.
iatsd At least they have it...
Pay 250k$ and get VW Golf screen inside XD
Some buttons on the driver door panel looked exactly like the ones on my 2015 Q7. Searched up Bentley's parent company and Audi's parent company; they were both the "Volkswagen Group." For 250k, I just expect more in the details.
In 911 you can find VW Polo parts inside.
Pinionszki ik. Some parts sharing is ok for this car; like the reservoir for the coolant.
A used 9 month old one is listed for sale at $170k, with just over 4000 miles. Depreciation tells the story of value better than Doug. Some nice features but Doug gets too excited over little things. That's about $10,000. every 500 miles.
Rawr XD
6:36 he almost said the f word😂😂😂 but good job he watched his mouth
$600 ashtrays to make your quarter million dollar SUV disgusting for the rest of its life.
Its for putting out your lit 100 dollar bills
no, hundred dollar cegars
Some people enjoy smoking and like the smell...and that's OK.
no its not go away
Some people do, kenny, and those people are gross.
Still look cheap. Like a cheesy SEMA project where they took a Touareg and fitted a Bentley grill
tillallareoneluv the Volvo is honestly really good looking
I agree. The Volvo has class and presence, costs a fraction, but still feels incredibly luxurious inside. It's an expensive, big car, but it's not excessive. It has a turbocharged four cylinder engine that puts out more than enough power for any situation. The seats are tremendous, the interior is one of the best examples of elegant Swedish design. In any case, that ugly Bentley with its pointless, overpriced options will be stuck in London rush hour traffic just like a normal car. You might as well save a few hundred thousand dollars and get a different car that is more than good enough for that.
Thats what i think. lol
From the front at least, but that rear from the 1980s with vertical lights, yuck.
Well that's mainly because... they DID take a Touareg/Q7 and fitted a bentley grill and engine in it.
Fun fact: The bentayga isn’t the first bentley suv ever made, their first ever suv was made in the 90s and it was called the Bentley “Dominator”. It was specifically made and only for the King of Brunei
Western capitalists racists ofcourse, i just googled it and you are very right.. it was delicious when they were eating his money back then, but now they dont want to credit him for driving the first ever Bentley SUV
This is the first real SUV from Bentley imo
for that price, those wheels piss me off
Wheels trash front of car looks expensive end of the car looks so generic and cheap
With the looks of that grill, they might as well have put spinners on the wheels!
You can get premium wheels ONLY for one grand a pair :p
You’ve never seen one in person. You have no grounds for judgement.
Jacob C if the wheels are fucking ugly in videos they’re gonna be fucking ugly in real life. It’s not something that suddenly gets better when you see it. They’re wheels...
Did Bentley create an option to allow riders to give the Bentayga a different name?
lmaoo
That'll be $8000
0987754 9086 it's Bent-a-gay
I'd pay extra to call it the Blingmobile.
You do not understand the difference between price and value. This car most certainly is NOT worth $250,000. But it does COST $250,000.
Totally agree with this. Just bought a Genesis Sedan for $45k, and it has around 90% of these features in admittedly less.... gaudy form; while the other 10% of features are mostly just useless bragging rights I probably wouldn't have any use for anyway. Like who needs a $160k center clock for god sake, Hahaha. imo, features and performance inclusive, this SUV might be worth around 1/2 what they're asking, especially with the terrible exterior styling.
Well, it's definitely not worth $250,000 for you or me, but it was worth it for the people who have bought them. (Unless the buyers were tricked or duped somehow) Value is in the eye of the beholder.
Alpha Prime lolwut. you can't get Chinese brand cars in the US and Canada. its a Hyundai product. (South Korean) and honestly its one of the best cars I've ever driven as far as ticking all the boxes goes. comfortable, powerful, reasonably fast (155 MPH Governerned, 0-60 around 6 secs give or take depending on altitude and such), and comes at a great price. sticker on mine was 54k for a loaded V6, but I got it for 45k. I've been in a few of the other cars in the segment (BMW 5, Mercedes E, Lexus GS) and this is the one I went with, so that should say a lot! :) a big decider was standard AWD that comes with the Genesis in Canada (not so in the US I believe) so I can drive this car all year round and not have to worry so much about poor road conditions in our 6 - 8 month winter. :P
Chris Davies what cars have the best "value"?
If there's a feature for $160,000 clock that means Bentley thought there would be a demand for it and there certainly is. Otherwise they wouldn't include it as an option. Maybe you are satisfied with Hyundai that has 90% of Bentley's features but a guy looking to buy a Bentley doesn't care about the features, he just wants to buy the brand name, the exclusivity, the prestige, the "I made it" in life showing. That's why people buy Bentley, Lamborghini, Ferrari. They're not looking for options. They're looking for exclusivity and prestige.
Reminds me of a London taxi.
oh yeah ive seen fake taxis that look like this on another website. forgot what the websites called though
or a Acura MDX with body kit. The rear is really lacking in any style.
Phil Indeblanc the entire truck is lacking in any style. This has got to be the ugliest truck ever
There're taxis that look like this? Because I wanna go to that country and start hitching rides all day...

Underrated reply
Deprecation is going the hit that car HARD. Give it 2 years and youll be able to pick one up for around $85k
My friend purchased one of these, when it came a neighbour asked if he could have it and offered 15k more than my friend originally paid for it. He accepted the offer and is now laughing because he said it is a very overpriced car and that depreciation will hit hard given a few years. He now has an optioned out range rover.
In my contry i can bay 2008 Bentley coupe with V8 for only 9-15 000 euro.
Evan j nah
The Rangie's going to lose value similarly, but instead of a dumpster fire, it's just a bonfire.
@Alexander Cecile , you must not be familiar with the car market. This is just an overly priced touareg with more gadgets and higher quality finishes.
Why is that Volkswagen Touareg so expensive?! 😮
Becuase Volkswagen badge engineering. (Learning from gm who did this exact thing with the chrvy trailblazer)

It's about $100,000 too much.
Not really, 150k gives you an X5M or a GLE 63 and not only does it have more power but it's also way, way more luxurious.
Luxury brands intentionally overcharge because it produces a psychological effect for conspicuous consumption obsessed retards. Bill of sale for Rolexes isn't even close to what they cost on the market. These cars depreciate dramatically because their initial value was overinflated in the first place.
It's called a veblen good. Overcharging means more rich idiots buy your car because they think it makes them look exclusive. If it was $100,000 less, people would consider it $100,000 worth less even when the truth of the matter is that it never cost $100,000 more to produce in the first place.
All 'high end' crap comes with giant markups. It's how these brands make their money when they sell in such low volume. You're never getting what you pay for. It's intentional from the beginning. Rich (not to be confused with wealthy) assholes jerk off to how much money they waste. It's self-vindication.
Kaisuke971 X5 Ms and GLE 63s start WAY less than 150k
Jordan Little Not in Europe.
I could get if they just lower the price $249,000.

doug is the type of guy to hide behind the couch when the scary part comes in the movie.
Lame
😂 WTF?
Hers´s why the Bentley Bentayga is REALY Worth 250K
u pay 100k for the Car and 150K for the Name .
Harambe OH MY GOD ANOTHER INTELLIGENT BEING! So many people denied drugs crap and finally some has cracked the code!
Harambe lol you know nothing about cars or production
You really think any car at all
Costs more than 50k to make?
super117knight emm there are some that Do cost more.
super117knight lol u look dumb as fuck you thin that the diamond encrusted mercedes from this rich dude was 50 bands to make ? how come its valued at 75 mio
because people will still buy it. why is a new smartühone like 900dollars? because people will pay that much. its not a secret that shit is just not worth that much.
but okey
you do you
160k for a clock?
schlöer grape yup...
schlöer grape I know a guy who spent 274k on a pocket watch. Once you reach a certain point you don't worry about such pathetic quantities as a few hundred thousand.

I’m buying this in 2020 😂😂 when it’s like 100-150k
It’s May 2020! Have ya bought it yet?
Its aug 2020 So did u buy it...or were u forntin with yo window shopping ass
@@barbz_zayne hahaha I was saying the same thing
it's 150k now.
Well you got the it being worth 100-150k part correct
After watching this video I have concluded that this car is not worth $250,000
What would CarMAX give you for it?
wait a year and they may give you it for $20K
I wonder if you could find a used one in a few years with a bumper to bumper warranty?
And tha will be a serious risk
+Nate Martin Probably more than I would ever pay for that ugly thing
Even if I could afford a Bentley, I would wait a generation to get a Bentayga. Most VWs 5 years or so ago ranged between so boring you would crash into them because you didn't notice them to aesthetically challenged and awkward, with not much in between. They've got some new designers now, VW's city cars look amazing and their luxury brands are hitting their Piech-era stride again. The next generation of VW's large SUV platform is going to look as amazing as everything else they've come out with recently does.
But I just wouldn't buy anything based on the current gen Touareg/Q7 platform. These have got to be some of the ugliest cars ever made, and instead of debuting the new large SUV design they've been working on (Jalopnik caught a gorgeous test mule IIRC, though I don't have the link) on what is supposed to be the world's best SUV, they chose to rush out the first leathered up Touareg they could slap a Bentley logo on because they wanted to get in on the luxury SUV game before Rolls-Royce beat them to it. The thing's amazing, yes, but it doesn't look amazing. Bentley essentially stuffed a Mulsanne inside and under the hood of a Q7 and called it a day because they knew Rolls-Royce was about to jump in after Maserati and Jaguar had tested the waters, and wanted to get in first at any cost to their reputation, regardless of the fact that they didn't have an actual product ready.
You don't buy a car like this because money matters. If you buy a piece of crap like this, you probably have enough money to buy 100 of these.
PCMasterRace the truth
+michael martin Didn't konw about that, thx. But there is one thing you got WRONG BIG TIME! Consoles are dying out. PC's outperform consoles in every aspect.
PC Master Race! PC is betterz, I will own all teh n00bz!
more like 1000
"piece of crap" lol
Why didn't u tell about the hidden pop-up headlight washers?
*I've got the Aston Martin, the problem is how do i get the Giraffe*
XD you're pic i thought there was hair on my screen
yo I deadass tried to remove the hair
You pay for the badge. It's a freaking Q7 underneath with some improved interior and extremely ugly exterior.
this car is worth 100k max the other 150k is for the logo haha
you also pay for the fact that the factory has so many bespoke options. all the variations slow down production and of course time = money!
Alviniscute most of these options can be had in a damn CRV so that's not an excuss
frank1971ification too bad the CRV lacks sound insulation and leather... everywhere!
Alviniscute yeah your right. lets pay an extra 300k to get leather seats and better sound insulation. makes TOTAL sense. your paying for the badge for this car and that's it

Does Bentley Bentayga have driver features like when you open the driver door it will automatically adjust the steering wheel, seat, sound system,etc to your settings or every time you need to adjust it yourself ?
Why no reply ? Is the answer is "NO" ?
Love your videos Doug, especially your analogies: "..add a Giraffe" - keep 'em coming..
250G's for a jazzed up VW Touareg? Pffttt!
yup.
It's a lot more than a Touareg, this thing is hand built from scratch.
and still ugly as shit
it's a q7
more ugly though

Bentley has sold its soul, I'm surprised it doesn't have a soccer mom driving mode as standard
I hauled one that had a $3,000 sunglasses holder
It is catering to the new London Arabs who have a false sense of class and think that it can be bought.
TheBleach actually, this is targeted more at the Chinese market than anywhere else. Some manufacturers even make cars sold only in China because all those millionaires/billionaires want to out do each other.
snakerb Oh yeah, I have seen many cars that are really just copies of western cars by their companies there. They have a very western sense of class there. Like, whatever we find to be classy, they want it. I didn't think about that.
TheBleach there's copies of everything in China. I went to a mall there that only sells copied stuff in downtown Beijing. But the rich don't want to be known for purchasing a fake, they want to prove they have the original over payed stuff
this car now needs a good interior detail after he's spit all over it.
James Butler haha!
Someone one get this guy to review my lawn, it needs a water.
James Butler someone's jealous.
no doug was spiting ever were while he was talking
so you watched most of the video, then put your comment here and in a way, you simply supported this guy. Well done. Keep on hating but don't forget to write. He needs it ;)
Entertaining and informative - now could you humor us with a clip of you washing the Bentley 😂
That navigation system is pathetic for a price tag like this. It looks like it's been stolen from a VW Golf...
Pretty sure it has and as i understand volkswagen own bentley anyway
It's ok
I imagine it'll get a refresh soon after seeing the interiors of the continental and flying spur.
It's true, but cars like Bentleys or Aston Martins aren't about technology, they are about quality and exclusivity.
You spelt "worth" wrong, it's supposed to be "priced"
Typical Bambi You spelt spelled wrong. it's supposed to be spelled
LOL! hahahah... It's like an ugly person telling another person that he's ugly... hahahahah... totally made my day..
you're*
dunskatorpeda It was a reference to his "spelt". But yeah.
omg, you guys are so butt hurt ahaha, I did fail miserably with that comment but my point is that I don't think that car is worth that much considering you can get a NEW Huracan for the same, or even less. I know they're 2 completely different vehicles but you wouldn't expect an SUV to be that much. I just think it's over priced.
Who ever hits a car like that if they don't have top of the line insurance, they will instantly go bankrupt. :O
FR LOL
jonathan siah he is refering to if others hit the bently. The the other people will have to pay for the car if they are in thr wrong

I don't understand why "The People" of the internet keep calling rich people stupid, like let's be serious for a moment now, the only stupid people here are us. You know, fucking around doing nothing better than calling other people out, while those people we called stupid make some millions of dollars each year -____-
Perhaps - probably, even - through inherited wealth rather than from income generated by their own efforts and ingenuity.

Doug DeMuro he's the director of the newer Star Trek movies. He used way too many lens flares.
6:34 😂😂😂 OH MY GOD OH MY FO MY GOD DANG!!😂😂😂
@6:30 The urge to say "HOLY FUCKING SHIT!" is immense, is it not?
If I had 250k, and I walked into the dealership, and asked for the car in black, and they said "OK, that'll be an extra $6k". I'd walk right back out. If someone is gonna pay you $250k for a taureg, then don't try to nickel and dime them on paint and trim. I understand the extras on a BMW or Honda, but on a luxury car then the base price should already be amazing.
it really appeals to the "more money than brains" class of people
Son the people who buy these cars are thinking whether they want another car they probably will drive once or twice or a pool for their horse.
Your whole comment is invalidated by implying a bmw isn't a "luxury car"
Willy Ridge precisely
thinking the real customers who buy this have more money than they can spend just like dropping $10 on a burger might not mean anything to you its the same for the real customers for this car, you can't take money with you when you die might as well use it up
Doug the type of guy to sniff the seats of the cars he reviews and give a detailed description of the owners farts and quirks.

Farts and quirks 😂😂

If you notice this is actually the Bentayga first edition. If you look at 1:37 down by the lower left hand corner of the drivers door, there is a small brutish flag with a 1 on it. This means that it is even more expensive than one would think.
Question did doug take his shoe off in the back seat 245
Looks like a mutated VW Touareg...
Because it IS a mutated Toureg...
And even uses a VW key fob probably.
The touareg is a nice looking car, for 60 k, this piece of shit is ugly and costs 250k
Did Bentley pay you $300 for this video?
Bentley gave it to autotrader for a couple of hours and autotrader gave Doug somewhere north of $300/min for the review. Probably.
Po Russki lol he is not salomondrin
We hope so. Doug deserves to be paid for his time, dont you agree?
salomondrin reference
Nicou Feizi glad someone got it :)
...i dunno about you guys but i really enjoy his segments...tbey're very entertaining.
Your eyes just opened as soon as you floored it!
First of all, this SUV looks super bland. Whatever style the Bentayga actually has, looks really dated already. For some reason, I get this really terrible Mercedes-Benz circa 2004 taste in my mouth, when I look at this Bentley. It just isn't good, man.
I can appreciate the level of customization, but it isn't really too far above what more practical companies can do. I don't quite see the justification in that $250,000 price tag quite yet.
Already I'm seeing where they can improve with that interior... I don't like how the touchscreen in the backseat is damn near on the floor board, and the screen is out-sized by my S7 smartphone. Yeah, I can see why they added massaging chairs because you really could throw your back out contorting it to mess with that little bit of standard quality nothing.
Why not have BIG, high resolution, touch screen computers embedded in the back of the front seats with windows 10 for the rear passengers? How about with a camera so you can video call, and how about throwing some VR support in there too to keep the kids entertained during those long road trips? Yeah, the passenger service here is not well thought out at all, at least not for a car Bentley is asking a 1/4 of a million dollars for. The rear passenger quarters just looks so abysmally standard, it's not even funny. I mean we're talking $250,000... lets think outside of the box some. I should be able to sit in my rear passenger seat and have everything at my fingertips, not on the floorboard. Passenger service.
600hp? Track mode settings? Are the engineers at Bentley high? I feel like the auto industry has come a long way, and in some regards much further and much faster than people could really anticipate. 600hp, 500hp, 400hp.... these numbers are RIDICULOUS for road cars period, let alone a vehicle clearly made to haul your family around in. There would be very few instances you'd actually want to romp on that accelerator for full power and risk that $250,000 trophy SUV to the uncaring likes of torque steer.
Nobody is going to buy this car for performance. I'm sorry... but there are already so many better platforms and so many better cars out there for that. There's NOTHING wrong with a more modest 400hp. Plenty of power to tote your golf clubs to the golf course.
But I get it... Bentley doesn't want their prized Bentayga to be surpassed by SRT-8 Cherokees or the Porsche Cheyenne Turbo S. Problem with this scenario is, most people who buy these types of cars typically can supe them up. When the SRT-8 Cherokee is already running 475 hp, it doesn't need much more tuning to get 600 out of it... and since they're a more performance oriented car, they can probably walk a Bentayga with around 550hp - which is what? Your basic exhaust and chip tune up? The Bentayga is going to be really overlooked when the SRT-8 Cherokee Trackhawk drops next year at nearly a 1/4 of the price too.
Fuck that car. Fuck Bentley.
I know a guy who had one for a few days and sold it to a neighbour for £15,000 more than he originally paid for it. He said the car wasn't worth anything like what they charge for it. The car looks a tad better in person believe it or not, but it's nothing special at all. And the interior, and I'll admit it's nice, but it's not what is should be for the price they are charging. He is waiting for the rolls royce SUV but in the mean time uses his range rover.
its so apples to oranges, if you think the driving experience of a 600hp SRT8 cherokee will even come close to the bentayga, you are so wrong
Remember Phaeton? It was a luxury car that looked like a Passat. An unconspicious car for someone who wants and can afford luxury. Bentayga looks nothing special because it's supposed to look nothing special- if you don't know a lot about cars, you'll never guess how much it costs.
+GeminiTIGER it looks like a Buick SUV at first glance
the customization is MILES above what most other car makers offer.....and the finish is far superior to anything North American car makers can produce.....
looks like a Volkswagen toureg with a Chrysler 300 body kit on it
it is a toureg
That's hilarious (but strangely true).
6:34 he's like OMG! OMG! :P Haha!
Can't blame you.. thats a monster SUV
My mom bought this car in white yesterday and I’d say I’m freaking impressed 🙌🏻
These cars cost 700.000 Euros here. When I think about that 250usd does not seem like a lot :D
Okan Güven yeah.. americans are always bitching about the prices, and im just watching them realising the same cars are about 3x that much in my country
+DutchClawz Uh, I've never heard Americans bitch about the prices of our cars.... We get the hook-up and we love it. We just don't like the chicken tax on foreign light trucks, which is a small price to pay for discounts on real cars.
700,000 euros ? - Do you live in Denmark or Malta ? - Cost as much as a Mulsanne. (About 220,000 euros).
Turkey. One of the worst countries in the world to buy cars. Tax for buying a car is is minimum %68 (some electircal cars) all the others are minimum %100. If the cars engine is over 2.0L tax is usually over %160.
Basicly you give the manufacturer 10k and 26k to government. A 2015 GTR is 250.000 euros. Worst thing is this is not the case only in luxury or high performance cars. You can't buy your 16/18 year old son a 2-3.000 car here. The cheapest cars which are basicly an engine 4 wheels attached to a cauldren are 4.000 USD minimum.
At least people in Denmark or Malta can afford to give that much money.
BTW. I saw a not used 2013 Mulsanne here . Retail price was 845.000 Euroes.
Weirdest thing is there is so many German luxury cars in Turkey that I have no fucking clue how do people buy them.
i live in turkey(as bayrakları)and im writing this in english so everyone can understand.cars you talk about are probably 1.6 entry level luxury cars(1.6 3 series,c180,and so on.
this needs a dougscore!
If there are any peasants screaming at me I certainly don’t know about it! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I died hahahaha. Doug your reviews are awesome not only are they really interesting but also very funny!
Doug you are amazing amazing and amazing job you do the details you give no one does it You are number 1 on you tube when it comes to cars and no matter what car you do review you give anuest scores you do not favour anyone thanks for the video s and for your unusetiey
It's a cool car but I wouldn't get one. Why? Well it's basically a VW Touareg. And imho it doesn't make sense. Too heavy, uses too much gas and doesn't look that gorgeous. Porsche Cayenne looks nicer :)
If you bought this SUV, you would not have to worry about spending $7,000 a year on gas vs. $5,000 in a normal SUV.
Pretty sure anyone who has the IQ and Wealth to buy this car won't give a damn about gas usage.
Well guys I agree but with my kind of driving style this thing would use about 20 - 25 liters per 100 km. And that is just too much. If you drive a lot (let's say 50k km/year) fuel consumption matters, because it is annoying to fill your car up all the time.
still people who buy these type of cars hardly reach even 10k km a year. they are always busy in boards meetings.
Astro
And driving their other 15 cars in the very little spare time they have.
i had a chance to ride in a family friends Bentley continental GT and it does accelerate exactly like an air plane lol
like a airbus beluga lol
Chandler Thomas n. U
which is still extremely fast
Damn and now coming back here, you can tell he loved it!!
The way u said Levante had me dying
Bentley is like designer jewelry. I don't give a fuck about jewelry in general, so I also don't give a fuck about Bentley.
Plus it also looks like shit...
I mean, I get the Continental GT. It's still excessive luxury, but it's at least one of the last true, well, GTs out there, a fast two seater that is also comfortable. It's the only Bentley that looks right, has near perfect proportions. Best of all, it depreciates like crazy, which means someone with an excellent monthly income (but no financial obligations like a house or demanding family) can afford this thing used.
+Toxicmatrix because you cant pay even the tires
More like costume jewelry at this point in their game
same difference to me. lol
The Tesla Model X has better a better exterior design and supercar performance for half the price.
Yes and Teslas interior looks like shit :D half the price is pretty expansive for that shit tho. And for me is better to have better interior than exterior but you have to see the bentayga in person it's so much better than in videos. Nevertheless i would choose a Benz over any car. Great exterior and supreme interior and "drive". I bet sound isolation and suspension is not worser on a Benz (E/S Class) than on the Bentley. It's like riding a cloud in the S-Class with air-suspension. :)
Bentley owners don't care how much the Bentley costs. They're not looking for prices, they're not even looking for other cars in its class. They want Bentley. If you can afford to spend $250,000 on an SUV then odds are you're not going to care that your car is a gas guzzler. You're buying your Bentley for prestige and exclusivity. They don't care about performance either because 99% of the Bentley SUV owners will be some 60 year old men.
Bentley owners will switch to Tesla's when AutoPilot can drive them to the brothel rather than a loose-lipped chauffeur.
What’s the weight rating for that event seat? It looks kinda flimsy...
No ash tray in mine thank you no smoking in my car! Beautiful, it looks like a solid car in the snow.
