Bentley Bentayga

Only five examples of 'Pearl of the Gulf' edition will be built by Mulliner.

Bentley says it's the world's fastest SUV, but what about the Lamboghini Urus?

With delayed launches and WLTP issues in the rearview mirror, profits coming.

Brand in transition has much work to do to reorganize and reassert itself.

The 10-car production run honors the Pikes Peak record.

The earlier SUV record was also held by a British SUV, a Range Rover Sport.

During our first drive of the 2019 Mercedes-Benz G-Class, the all-new SUV's product manager was asked to identify competitors that might have been benchmarked in its development. The look on his face was about the same as if someone had asked him to recite King Lear in Klingon. As far as Andreas Hoeppel was concerned, the G 550 and AMG G 63 doesn't actually have a rival, or at least something the engineers and designers thought to compare it against.

At the beginning of 2017 we heard reports that BMW planners were considering an X8 SUV boasting almighty luxury, and if approved, it could be ready for 2020 reveal.

Despite Bentley positioning its Bentayga SUV as a luxury vehicle, Bentley doesn't want us to forget that it's also a storied motorsport brand. Even the Bentayga can be used for record hunting, as Bentley is eager to show. It has hired two-time Pikes Peak hill climb winner Rhys Millen to take a Bentayga to the mountaintop.

Lamborghini still has several months until it starts shipping its new 189.5-mph Urus SUV to customers, but the brand is already thinking about proving its mettle by entering the luxury ute in an unspecified all-roads competition.

It uses a 3.0-liter V6 plug-in hybrid.

The company expects the ultra-luxury SUV to push annual vehicles sales past 5,000.

The race will pit the SUV's 12-cylinder, 600-hp engine against the thin alpine air.

It is a tad lighter and has huge optional brakes.

The Bentley Bentayga will get a Porsche-sourced 4.0-liter gasoline V8 next year, the PHEV Bentayga to follow.
