The Bentayga EWB makes sense for someone set on a Bentley SUV with all-wheel drive and a large turbocharged engine. Its practical headline is 16 MPG combined, not an electric-driving figure. A $5,150 EPA annual fuel cost calls for a generous fuel budget, while 14 MPG city use can feel costly in frequent traffic. Highway trips are less demanding at 21 MPG. Consider it when drivetrain and body type come first, and fuel economy is a known compromise.
What it is
The 2026 Bentley Bentayga EWB is a gasoline SUV with all-wheel drive.
The EPA class is Standard Sport Utility Vehicle 4WD.
The numbers
Its defining figure is 16 MPG combined. The rating separates into 14 MPG in city driving and 21 MPG on the highway.
That split makes the highway figure 7 MPG higher than the city figure, so stop-and-go driving has the larger fuel penalty.
What it costs to run
EPA lists annual fuel cost at $5,150. Tailpipe emissions are 553 grams of CO2 per mile.
Those figures give you the running-cost and emissions baseline for this gasoline Bentayga EWB.
How it compares
Use 16 combined MPG as the side-by-side figure when comparing this Bentayga with other Bentley cars. Its 14 city and 21 highway ratings show how the result changes with driving conditions.
Who it suits
This SUV suits a buyer who wants all-wheel drive and a gasoline powertrain, and who can budget for an EPA-listed $5,150 annual fuel cost.
It also fits drivers whose use includes highway travel, where its rating rises to 21 MPG.
Trade-offs
The 21 MPG highway rating is meaningfully better than the 14 MPG city rating, but the combined result is still 16 MPG.
The gasoline engine has no EPA electric range or MPGe figures here. Tailpipe CO2 is 553 grams per mile, and NHTSA lists one recall.
Verdict
Choose the Bentayga EWB if all-wheel drive and a turbocharged 8-cylinder SUV matter more to you than minimizing fuel use. Plan around its 16 MPG combined rating, with city trips likely to land near 14 MPG. The EPA cost figure of $5,150 per year is the clearest ownership number supplied here. Highway-focused driving makes better use of its 21 MPG rating, but this remains a gasoline vehicle with substantial reported tailpipe emissions.
