Bentley Bentayga Marks 10th Anniversary With Exclusive Atelier Edition
by AutoExpert | 25 February, 2025
Bentley’s Bentayga is closing in on its 10th anniversary, and while it’s still in its first generation, the ultra-luxury SUV is getting a special edition to mark the occasion. Launched in 2015 at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the Bentayga received a facelift in 2020, though the changes were subtle. Now, in 2025, it’s still going strong—and Bentley is celebrating with the new Atelier Edition.
This edition comes in five classic Mulliner shades—Light Onyx, Rubino, Porcelain, Quartzite, and Light Emerald—plus a new Obsidian Crystal option. If none of these suit your taste, you can still choose from Bentley’s regular color palette.

Design-wise, the Bentley Bentayga Atelier Edition leans into luxury with a mix of satin and chrome finishes. It also gets badged fake side vents and a set of striking 22-inch, 10-spoke wheels with self-leveling Bentley center caps. Buyers can pick between the standard wheelbase or the stretched EWB version, which debuted a few years ago.

Inside, the special edition brings a range of exclusive finishes tailored to the exterior color, blending brushed aluminum, wood, high-end leather, and two-tone themes. The Bentley Bentayga keeps a satisfying mix of physical buttons and knobs—a refreshing touch in today’s digital-heavy interiors.

One thing missing, though, is Bentley’s legendary W-12. The brand retired its twin-turbo 6.0-liter engine in mid-2024 after building over 100,000 of them since 2003. Instead, the Bentley Bentayga Atelier Edition is available with a V-8 or a V-6 hybrid, though the hybrid lacks the rear-wheel steering system found in the gas-powered models.

Looking ahead, Bentley is preparing to expand its SUV lineup with an all-electric model set to debut in 2026. Expected to be smaller than the Bentayga, the so-called "Urban SUV" will be Bentley’s first EV, though details remain scarce for now.
