2024 Bentley Bentayga vs 2020 Audi Q7

What's the difference?

Yes, you can drive your Bentley and keep your family. It's called compromise, or the Bentayga, Bentley's SUV.

The Bentayga my family has been living with is the Azure grade which promises to be even more comfortable and pleasant than the rest of the range.

Comfort is important and we'll cover the Bentayga's lavish details in time, but our mission first and foremost is to find out if the Bentayga makes a good family SUV.

You never want to be left behind by the competition, especially in the automotive world, where things change at a breakneck pace. Case in point: The Audi Q7.

If Audi is well-known for its subtle mid-life facelifts that make you question the difference between new and old, then the second-generation Q7 is the exception to the rule.

Make no mistake, the large SUV has been given a major facelift – one that it needed to keep up with its new-generation rivals.

So, has it been worth the extra effort? We put the updated Q7's volume-selling 50 TDI variant to the test to find out.
