Bentley Bentayga EWB extends dimensions of ultra-luxury

With the Bentayga Extended Wheelbase (EWB), Bentley further builds on the class-leading traits of the Bentayga SUV through a rear cabin space that has increased over seven inches in length, creating a new dimension in ultra-luxury travel.

Allowing for the extra space are significant revisions to the model’s underfloor, side panels, roof and rear doors. The result? A rear passenger room larger than that in any other competitor SUV.

A 4+1 seating arrangement featuring the Bentley Airline Seat specification makes full use of the luxurious space. The Airline Seat is the most advanced ever fitted to a car, boasting of 22-way adjustment, an automatic climate sensing system, and postural adjustment technology.

When crafted in Bentley’s Azure configuration, the Bentayga EWB further transforms into a mobile sanctuary that prioritizes the wellness of its occupants. A carefully curated selection of features promoting “wellbeing behind the wheel” creates a stress-free interior ambience that has reduced levels of noise, vibration and harshness.

Throughout the Bentayga EWB Azure’s cabin are numerous craftsmanship elements, including the Bentley Dynamic Illumination that bathes the handcrafted leather in a soft glow. Finer sewing threads result in Bentley’s softest lofted quilt to date. And available to the Bentayga EWB Azure are 24 billion trim combinations.

Such attention to detail draws organizations that share Bentley’s approach to high luxury — like The Peninsula Hong Kong, which has chosen the Bentayga EWB Azure as the new crown jewel of its limousine fleet.

The prestigious and storied hotel recently specified Bentley’s in-house bespoke and coachbuilding division to create four Bentayga EWB Azure models that must be instantly recognizable as belonging in The Peninsula’s fleet. Besides this, the vehicles must also showcase the exquisite handcrafted quality provided by Bentley’s artisans at its Dream Factory in Crewe, England.

The hotel specified its Bentayga EWB Azure to come in a unique exterior shade of Peninsula Green. Concocted by Bentley’s Paint Shop, this rich, dark green extends to painted bright trim on the vehicle’s lower body and the matrix grilles in the bumper apertures. The dark tone is offset by a two-piece coach line in honey gold tone, with the two lines tracing the power line and haunch of the Bentayga EWB’s side profile. The front doors then feature crests of the owner and operator of The Peninsula Hotels

Majority of the commissioned Bentayga EWB Azure’s cabin is trimmed in Saddle leather contrasted by Beluga leather on the door waist rails, across the top of the dashboard, and the steering wheel. The warm tones of Burr Walnut pair the two leather colors perfectly, and are also used across the dash, along the waist rails, and in the pair of veneered picnic tables at the backs of the front seats. Embroidered Bentley emblems in Saddle are added to all four seats, and the vehicles feature Mood Lighting and Rear Seat Entertainment, allowing rear cabin occupants to work, browse the internet, or stream content on the move. All in extended luxury.
