Crewe, England – Bentley Motors, in collaboration with its bespoke division Mulliner, has just taken the wraps off the Bentayga Apex Edition, a supremely exclusive iteration of its renowned SUV.

At the heart of the Apex Edition's allure are its state-of-the-art 22-inch Mulliner carbon wheels, designed in partnership with Bucci Composites. These ultra-lightweight wheels, coupled with high-performance carbon ceramic brakes, contribute to a substantial 44 kg reduction in the vehicle’s weight, optimizing both agility and efficiency.
The Bentayga Apex Edition distinguishes itself with a unique carbon body kit and a striking racing stripe that extends from the bonnet to the roof, a first for the Bentley SUV lineup. Under the hood, it houses Bentley's powerful 4.0-litre, twin-scroll turbocharged V8 engine, which pumps out 542 bhp and 770 Nm of torque. This engine setup is enhanced with Bentley Dynamic Ride, active anti-roll control, and rear-wheel steering, all standard features that ensure a dynamic and responsive driving experience.
Bentley has not only focused on performance but also offers unparalleled personalization options. The Apex Edition is available in six exclusive themes, each featuring unique exterior finishes and meticulously curated interiors. Additionally, owners of the Continental GT Le Mans Edition have the unique opportunity to commission a Bentayga Apex Edition that mirrors the trim and livery of their special edition coupe, ensuring a matched set that stands out at any gathering.
“This limited edition represents a perfect synergy between performance and luxury,” said Adrian Hallmark, CEO of Bentley Motors. “With bespoke elements and significant technical enhancements, the Bentayga Apex Edition is truly the pinnacle of what a luxury SUV can offer.”

Adding to Bentley's exclusive announcements, the company has also teased the upcoming unveiling of a new coachbuilt car scheduled for May 7, 2024. This model will follow in the prestigious footsteps of the Bacalar barchetta and Batur coupe, featuring the legendary W12 engine in one of its final appearances, limited to just 16 units.
The Bentayga Apex Edition by Mulliner not only underscores Bentley's commitment to innovation and bespoke luxury but also continues to push the boundaries of what is expected in the ultra-premium SUV market.
