In the car world, Rolls-Royce and Bentley are considered the top luxury car manufacturers. These two automotive companies have been in business for over a century, and they’ve both seen their fair share of changes with time. In the early 1900s, Rolls-Royce focused on making airplanes rather than cars, but after World War I, they decided to produce automobiles once again. Nowadays, these brands are known for their ultra-luxury vehicles that boast beauty combined with power and luxury.
Rolls-Royce has always focused on exclusivity apart from luxury. You’ll find Rolls-Royce automobiles to be more luxury and beauty-oriented than performance. However, Bentley has been creating automobiles that are performance-oriented and luxurious. You won’t find Bentleys as beautiful as Rolls Royce. This blog specifically compares the two latest models from both automobile giants, Rolls Royce Dawn and Bentley Bentayga.
Rolls Royce Dawn Convertible
While the Rolls Royce Wraith coupe has the dazzling fastback roofline, the Rolls-Royce Dawn gives bystanders a better view. With its cloth top down, you can see that the Dawn has one of the most exclusive and beautiful interiors in the automobile industry. It is custom and handmade using genuine wood trim, high-end leather, and real metal as per the buyer’s specifications.
Performance, Comfort, and Luxury
The Dawn houses a 6.6 Liter V-12 that produces 563 horsepower. On the track, the Dawn goes from 0-60 mph in just 4.3 seconds. It cruises gracefully and provides the utmost comfort to its passengers even when driving over rough roads. The eight-speed transmission shifts effortlessly and intelligently. It uses GPS to determine when to change gears according to the position of the car. The Dawn accelerates quickly but cruising quietly is suited better as its suspension is not tuned for speed, but comfort.
Bentley Bentayga
Many Premium SUVs from Mercedes-Benz, Cadillac, and BMW offer ample comfort and features, but none compare to the Bentayga’s luxury. It offers two trims with a V-8 and V-12 under the hood. The Bentayga packs the muscle for continuous cross-country tours. It has enough cargo capacity to store a high-speed shopping spree behind the rear seat. The cabin has hand-crafted aromatic leather, metal accents, and wooden trims. It is equipped with the latest infotainment features buyers expect from a six-figure price tag SUV.
Performance, Comfort, and Luxury
The Bentayga’s engine produces 542-hp on entry-level, and the 443-hp hybrid powertrain variant is for the top variant in this model. Regardless of the engine output, all models are equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission and a standard all-wheel-drive system. The Bentayga speed comes with additional horsepower, making 626hp and delivering a smooth 0-60 mph in 3.6 seconds. While the cabin does not feel as lavish as the Rolls Royce Dawn, the Bentayga allows customization of the complete interior, such as front seats, back seats, and rear buckets. The cargo area that it offers is more generous than Rolls Royce Dawn.
Verdict
Rolls Royce Dawn and Bentley Bentayga offer the most luxury and comfort in their categories. However, Bentley Bentayga offers better space for adults to stretch their legs in the back than the Dawn. The price of both vehicles also varies. The Rolls Royce Dawn is more expensive than the Bentley Bentayga. The Dawn is best suited for cruising, and the Bentayga is best for cross country tours. It all dials down to personal preferences and the daily use of the vehicle.
