Bentley Bentayga enters world famous Pikes Peak International Hill Climb

The 600bhp, W12-powered Bentayga will tackle the famous 20km Colorado Springs hill climb with record-breaking ambitions, aiming to navigate the 156 corners of ascending asphalt quicker than any Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV) before.

A car is being prepared for the competition by Bentley's motorsport department at the company's headquarters in Crewe, England. Leading the project is Bentley's Director of Motorsport, Brian Gush.

Deploying 900Nm of torque through intelligent all-wheel drive and state-of-the-art air suspension together with Bentley's pioneering 48-volt active anti-roll system, the Bentayga delivers extraordinary dynamic ability without compromising refinement.
