Bentley to take on Pikes Peak with the Bentayga

When you think Bentley, you think opulence beyond the mortal beings, you think luxury and even more so when the car in question is the Bentayga. But what if we told you Bentley has some wacky intentions with its ultra-luxury SUV? Bentley aims to conquer the famous Pikes Peak hill climb, yes you read right.

Bentley recently announced that in june 2018, it is all set to conjure up a specially prepped Bentayga to take on Pikes Peak. While all the details aren't out yet, expect the SUV to be powered by the mammoth 600bhp W12 engine. Also the SUV's all-wheel-drive and air suspension, complete with an active-roll system, will help deliver better results. 

But Bentley isn't just attempting to climb the mountain. In fact it has all the intentions to break some records while at it. The brand aims to complete the course, which is comprised of 156 turns, quicker than any SUV that has come before it.

We expect the SUV to lose much of its luxury in a bid to save weight and gain a roll cage too, but more on that should be revealed closer to the attempt in June. Whether it manages to break records or not we can't wait to see this mammoth SUV go ballistic at Pikes Peak.
