Bentley has officially revealed the Bentayga with a 4.0L V8, triple charged diesel engine. It is the first time ever in the history of the brand when a car has been powered by a diesel heart. The world’s most powerful and fastest diesel SUV produces 435 HP and 900 Nm of torque @ 1000-3250 rpm. The car takes just 4.8 seconds for a 0-100 kmph run while the top speed is rated at 270 kmph.
The engine comes mated to a 8-speed ZF transmission and uses twin turbochargers as well as an electric powered supercharger. The supercharger starts working from the idle state, transferring the whole 900 Nm of torque at the startup only. The rest of the lag is taken care by the twin turbochargers, providing a non stop power packed driving experience.
