The top speed of 187 miles an hour Bentyaga will be the fastest production SUV on the road when it hits the market. Eventually, Bentley intends to launch a seven-seat version, a higher performance speed model, and more efficient diesel and hybrid variants of this new luxury SUV. Dawn is the new four-seater convertible from Rolls Royce. While the car looks to the past for its name, it boasts lots of modern tech, including Rolls Royce's ZF eight-speed automatic transmission for imperceptible gear changes and a silently operating six-layer canvas top.
The launch of Toyota's latest Prius marks the fourth generation of the popular hybrid. Prius has gone from a niche product to one of the industry's most important vehicles. Toyota hopes its new Prius will redefine the category it helped to pioneer. We're expecting fuel economy to increase by 10%, and this is the most tech-laden Prius ever. Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to check out my full recap this Saturday, plus some added insight on the new Cadillac XT5. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore.
