Bentley Bentayga Hybrid

Bentley has already said that its future will be fully electric as soon as 2030. But the British brand's first electrified product, the new Bentayga hybrid SUV, is a rather small first step toward that goal, one that smoothly combines a modest amount of electric power and range with a turbocharged V-6 that runs on old-fashioned liquid hydrocarbons. Despite its name, the Bentayga hybrid is actually a plug-in. It employs a 335-hp turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 with a 126-hp electric motor sandwiched between the engine and an eight-speed automatic transmission. Combined output is 443 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque. In the Bentayga's EV-only mode, the powertrain can decouple the V-6 to power the car by electrons alone, although it won't be able to do so for very long: The EPA range in EV mode is just 18 miles, with a combined estimate of 46 MPGe.
