For the comfort and wellbeing of rear-seat passengers, two groundbreaking features are now available in the standard wheelbase Bentayga and the Bentayga EWB: Postural Adjust and Seat Auto Climate.

Seat Auto Climate monitors heat and humidity at the surface of the seat automatically – and reacts accordingly, adjusting the heating and ventilation levels to keep you comfortable throughout your journey.

Postural Adjust reduces fatigue on long journeys, by subtly varying the pressure in individual pockets of air located inside the seats, at the shoulder, thigh and lumbar positions. Virtually imperceptible at its lowest setting, it promotes healthy blood flow, ensuring that you get out of the vehicle feeling just as good as you did when you got in.

These features are installed as standard on the Bentayga EWB Mulliner. They can be commissioned as an option for all other Bentayga and Bentayga EWB models.

London taxi drivers refer to a situation they call the ‘Magic Carpet Ride’, where they maintain the ideal speed necessary to glide through one set of traffic lights after another, without ever slowing to a stop. It’s a tricky thing to achieve – unless you are driving a Bentley with the Green Traffic Light Prediction feature.

By accessing real-time information on the timing of traffic lights from the city’s IT infrastructure, your Bentley is able to calculate when the lights will change at the next junction – and provide you with a countdown in seconds, displayed in the driver’s information panel. As a result, you can adjust your speed as required. Not only is it incredibly satisfying to drive through the city without stopping, but it also conserves fuel, which in turn can reduce emissions.

It is currently enabled for a number of cities in the US and Europe, with more cities being added all the time.

Many Bentayga drivers use their vehicle to tow trailers, bearing loads from horseboxes to boats and jet-skis. Reversing can often prove more difficult with a trailer, however, especially on uneven ground. That’s where the new Trailer Assist features comes in. As soon as you put your Bentayga into reverse gear, the view from the rear camera is projected on the main infotainment screen. You can then use the Drive Dynamics Control rotary knob on the front console to tell the car exactly where you want your trailer to go. All that remains is to let go of the steering wheel and let your Bentayga do the rest.

Trailer Assist is standard on all Bentayga and Bentayga EWB models when towing options are selected.

At low speeds, your Bentley will continuously monitor the environment around the car, to alert you of any impending scrapes or impacts. It also features an incredible, real-time, three-dimensional display of your surroundings, shown on the central touchscreen, which you can use to check any blind spots for obstacles.

3D Surround View allows you to choose the best view available from the four different cameras on the car or, alternatively, see a 3D view of the overall environment around the vehicle.

Another feature, Manouvre Assist, provides an extra layer of safety for you and your car, by monitoring the environment in hard-to-navigate spaces and issuing audible alerts if it looks likely that your Bentley may collide with something while you are manoeuvring. If you ignore the alerts, it will apply the brakes automatically, preventing any contact and avoiding damage.

V8 models of the Bentayga and Bentayga EWB can be commissioned with Bentley Dynamic Ride, a 48-volt anti-roll system. Designed to stiffen the suspension when cornering to improve stability, it automatically softens its grip at other times. The result is a comfortable, refined drive when cruising in a straight line, with no compromise on control when taking corners.

V8 models also benefit from all-wheel steering, which dramatically reduces the vehicle’s turning circle, making manoeuvring in tight spaces much easier. When driving on the highway, however, the system delivers an additional benefit: by allowing the rear wheels to steer in the same direction as the front wheels, any changing of lanes or overtaking can be achieved much more smoothly, without any sense of the vehicle rolling from side to side.

All V8 Bentayga and Bentayga EWB models feature Bentley Dynamic Ride and all-wheel steering. Hybrid Bentayga models are not compatible with these features.
