641-HP Bentley Bentayga Speed V-8 Skips the Hybrid, Adds a Drift Mode
Car and Driver reported that the 2026 Bentayga Speed returns with a non‑hybrid 4.0‑liter twin‑turbo V8 tuned to 641 hp and 627 lb‑ft, taking the Speed name back after the W‑12’s retirement.
The publication highlights new calibrations including rear‑wheel steering, a sport exhaust as standard, and an ESC Dynamic mode that scales back intervention to permit controlled drift angles; optional carbon‑ceramic brakes and a titanium Akrapovič exhaust are listed.
The story focuses on how Bentley has re‑anchored its flagship SUV around sharper dynamics and sound, an engineering and marketing pivot that will affect pricing expectations, buyer interest, and Bentley’s product positioning for 2026.
