The Arrival of the New Bentayga Speed in Japan

On May 13, 2026, Bentley Motors Japan officially announced the introduction of the new Bentayga Speed into the Japanese market. This model stands as the performance flagship of the Bentley SUV line-up, representing a significant evolution toward becoming their most powerful and dynamic SUV yet.

Performance Enhancements

The heart of the Bentayga Speed is its impressive 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine, which delivers a staggering peak output of 650PS and an impressive torque of 850Nm. This exceptional power enables the SUV to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds, achieving a top speed of 310 km/h—exceeding the performance benchmarks set by previous W12-equipped models.

Moreover, the Bentayga Speed has upgraded the SPORT mode significantly. The suspension's damping stiffness sees a 15% increase, alongside the addition of a new ESC Dynamic mode that enhances cornering abilities, agility, and driver engagement—an unprecedented experience for any Bentley SUV.

For those opting for the carbon-ceramic brake package, the ESC Dynamic mode further improves on-power slip angle control and launch control capabilities. All of this is delivered while maintaining the hallmark craftsmanship and comfort associated with the Bentley brand, ensuring a highly emotional driving experience.

Advanced Features

Incorporating Bentley Dynamic Ride and All-Wheel Steering, the new Bentayga Speed offers both agility at low speeds and remarkable stability at high speeds, transcending the conventional definition of a luxury SUV and paving the way for a new category of driver's SUVs.

With the introduction of the Bentayga Speed in Japan, Bentley aims to strengthen its presence in the high-performance luxury SUV segment within the country. Recent trends have shown that consumers are increasingly demanding not just comfort, but also performance and driving experiences, making this model an essential player in meeting those needs.

Through models such as the Bentayga Speed, Continental GT S, and the Super Sports, Bentley is redefining the world of "performance luxury," seamlessly blending luxury with a thrilling driving experience.
