From the outside, the Mulliner is distinguished by its two-tone paint, chrome grilles in the lower fascia, color-matched lower bodywork, and 22-inch Paragon wheels with weighted centers that always display the Bentley logo upright. (The two-tone paint treatment, however, also will be offered on regular Bentaygas.) Inside, the Mulliner continues to set itself apart with two-tone leather seating, a refrigerated compartment in the rear center console that also features storage for a pair of Cumbria Crystal flutes, customizable ambient lighting in 15 colors, illuminated sill plates, and special wood veneers that fade from burr walnut to black as they wrap around the cabin.
It's big, it's brash, it's heavy and it's officially the world's fastest SUV. Meet the Bentley Bentayga Speed.
Pros It's the world's fastest SUV with a 306km/h top speed Unique Alcantara upholstery is not only exquisite but holds you steady on track Better throttle response and keener steering make this a more exciting Bentayga without any compromise to ride comfort in standard ride modes
Cons You'll need a keen eye to spot the Speed over the standard W12 bar the badges Styling will still be too discrete for some Sports exhaust is optional as are carbon-ceramic brakes
With its rugged body-on-frame construction, heavy duty hardware and new-age technology that enable it to crawl over obstacles, the Prado is not for pretenders. To be fair, the Prado is far from rudimentary. It feels solid on the road at highway speeds and around town, although you quickly learn to take roundabouts a little more gingerly because of the tendency for big, tall and heavy 4WDs like this to lean in corners. The new engine is a worthwhile freshen-up for the Prado but doesn't suddenly transform the vehicle.
Likes New diesel engine is more refined Long range due to better economy and 150L tanks Genuine off-road ability
Dislikes Towing capacity unchanged at 2500kg The price is high, especially on top end models Interior design starting to look a little dated
Cast an eye over the SUV market and you’ll see very few truly off-road capable vehicles. One of them is the Toyota LandCruiser Prado, and here we’ve got the most capable Prado of all, the top-shelf Kakadu.The LandCruiser Prado Kakadu is a very good off-the-shelf off-roader, with its blend of both tradi-tional and modern off-road equipment. With decent all-terrain or mud-terrain tyres (which nearly all standard SUVs would need) we reckon the Kakadu could go just about anywhere.
Likes Rear axle articulation KDSS system Crawl control
Dislikes Lack of power and torque Over-bonnet vision No height-adjustable front suspension
