This, ladies and gents, is a hybrid Bentley. The inevitable has finally happened and one of the world"s poshest, most opulent carmakers has surrendered to the onward march to plug-in cars. Of course, the Bentayga is a perfectly sensible car to pop a hybrid drivetrain beneath. It already weighs nearly as much as a small moon, so the addition of some batteries and electric motors isn"t going to suddenly tip its power-to-weight ratio or weight distribution in the wrong direction. Bentley reckons that travelling on electric power can create "an oasis of calm and tranquillity" suitable to one of its cars, and we suspect it"ll bring similar calm and tranquility to calculating your tax bill, too.
