- čas přidán 31. 05. 2024
- Several years ago, a Ferrari, Bentley and Aston Martin in the same group test would signal three rear-wheel drive luxury grand-tourers going head-to-head in a battle for the ages.

*For those asking about the Urus, we enquired about a loan from Lamborghini but they declined to take part in this test.
Bloody scared bull! 😂
Wasn't there an Audi Q8, isn't it the same car?
Ferrari!!!!!!!!!!
Understandable from Lamborghini
Oh F*** Yeah! Let's all continue to poison our only common atmosphere with CO2! The one that first causes of Catastrophic Global Warming Wins! "Spoiled for choice" indeed!
To me looks like the Bentley and the Aston are in the SUV category and Ferrari is a Crossover
I think Ferrari also said it's not an SUV. 🙂
except it is@@tteeydoc1
@@tteeydoc1Ferrari calls it FUV - so I guess it lost the 'Sport' ouf of the 'Utility' 'Vehicle'. 😁
Having 'Ferrari' instead of 'Sport' in the category name, should mean something, though.
@@miks564 It's a way for them to say that yes it is a practical sports car, but it's not a family SUV with horsepower thrown in there, it is a Ferrari that has some practicality to it. It's a very different concept.
I guess that the problem with the Bentley is that it competes with top level Range Rovers, whereas the others don’t really have to.
bentayga also has to compete with Maybach GLS and Cullinan which are full luxury suvs.
and dont forget or underestimated the G wagon, huge competition market
They're all wannabe Range-Rovers.
Thing is the original stock will always have an influence on the end "dressed" product, no matter how heavy the "dressing" is. That’s why the Bentley suffers a bit!
@@BugattiONE666Range Rover is trash
As a Porsche Cayenne S driver currently, I’d happily consider the AM . If I had the budget however I’d go Ferrari
As a Cayenne S diesel driver that gets 26mpg at worst and 35/36 on a run I'm sticking with what I have. It tows well, sounds great and goes very well too.
@@HawkMillFarm I have the s E hybrid variant and love its £0 road tax , now it’s stage 1 mapped im running 400bhp from the engine with 100 bhp electric motor on top .
I had no idea there was a Cayanne S Diesel! Intersting proposition. Same for the hybrid.
@@alexjaybrady I choose the hybrid be a it uses a petrol super charged v6 , has some easy running gains and has a 100 bhp electric motor with 0 road tax .
385hp and massive torque, does everything well and kindly fuel consumption. @@alexjaybrady
Ferrari Purosangue is just gorgeous.
The engineering behind those suspensions is outstanding.
Nobody ever said that 😂😂 everybody saying: nice Mazda, lol.
how tf is that Ferrari gorgeous???????? oh because its a Ferrari ...the Aston looks far better
toyota crown suv (2025) : thank you
The Purosangue looks great as does the 707. The Bentayga might be great to drive/luxurious, but it's not the best looking. Not to mention, if I were looking at a super luxury SUV I would definitely prefer the Cullinan. Honestly, I might even prefer the Escalade V to the Bentayga
Ferrari is just a different breed than all cars in existence. The rest are garbage in comparison. Only triggered british would think Aston or Bentley is better nobody else.
Purosangue all day baby!!!! Sorry but is another level!!
So it should be for the price😂
It’s not. It’s just a V12. That’s all there is.
@@gaara4667 Of course it's not only the engine. You don't have that suspension in any other car. ...and the rest of the electronic Ferrari uses to handle the engine and transmission together for best traction and handling is also uncommon to find on any other cars. So, your answer makes me suspect you just don't like the brand ...which is fine, I guess.
@@miks564 less space than Lusso and somehow even less practical than it too. And they are charging half a million for it. And the only thing you are pointing out is suspension and drivetrain? Suv should be more than that.
@@gaara4667I'd have an Alpina B5 estate . Just as fast in the real world, more comfortable when required + 400k cheaper!
Once the DBX receives the DB12s interior, it will become the best SUV in the segment no question!!!
Agreed. The way they had to bow down to Mercedes and use their old infotainment is rather sad.
They still use their AMG engines. It probably came with the contract, but now they make their own interiors.@@jeffs6090
fr, would be a must buy fo sure
@@jeffs6090They just didn't have the budget for smth better at the time. Pretty sure they would've used a better one if they could've.
the most unreliable, break first, and still be pointless. british automotive. good interior, unreliable overall.
Shame you guys across the pond no longer get a Turbo GT to throw in the mix of things. Incredible video nonetheless.
Because it has looks only a mother could love. Ditto the Bentley. Frankly CAR should have tested the Urus instead. If I had my way I'd set the Turbo GT and Bentley alight on TV for all to cheer at.
@@MohsinWadeethe Urus is a hideous joke. Literally just an uglier and much more expensive Cayenne.
That’s because you haven’t driven one, let alone in the snow, flacjacket
@@flacjackethardly a joke. Lamborghini have sold shit loads of them. Whether your like then or not (I’m on the fence) they are immensely popular and if that means Lamborghini can put that money into other models then its a thumbs up from me.
@@EAD_0 Urus being sold doesnt meant it is good taste suv, it is an obnoxious suv
You can't see the FERRARİ, but you know it's coming by the sound coming from 1 km away…
PUROSANGUE wins!🔥No doubt. What an amazing car it’s on another level. The other 2 are great tho
no need for the video... its the Ferrari
Aston looks the best overall
Love the colour combo
Aston exterior, Ferrari sound , Bentley interior= perfect ssuv
What a refreshing change to have road testers that aren't trying to be the stars, and actually give a good factual review. These days most testers just come across as arrogant and pretentious in failed a Jeremy Clarkson manner.
Arguably one of the best road test reviews i have ever watched on CZcams!
Glad you enjoyed!
Clarkson overated also
Can’t be a super suv group with out URUS AND TURBO GT
See pinned comment.
I was thinking the exact same thing.
urus is a rsq8 so might as well include that too
Crazy to think the stereo system in the Bentley has a greater power output than all of these SUV's powertrains combined
it isn't Kilowatt hopefully😂
At this price point, I feel like it's more a case of what you WANT instead of what you NEED. For that, it has to be the Fez. It looks gorgeous, goes like a rat up a drainpipe, and the sound of it makes you go weak at the knees every time. Every. Time.
It's looks absolutely awful !
@@paulthomson9014 spec savers.
And will fall apart moment it goes in your garage and Ferrari will keep you quiet because you want more of their cars or else.
@@gaara4667in what time do you still live😂😂
I have never seen someone refer to any Ferrari as "the Fez", that sounds so trashy and idiotic. Is that an American thing, like saying "Beemer" or other random made up garbage instead of the brand names?
The V12 is great, but I do have a feeling that Ferrari will put the 296's V6 (albeit in a lower state of form) in the Purosangue in the future and expand the market share.
They would print money, as would a smaller 'super-Macan' type car imo.
You’re onto something there 😮
Wont happen as they are already selling enough of these things like this. Their strategy is not to become a "lower level" or "entry level" luxury brand like Porsche who sells 10 times as many cars and cheaper variations (Macan and 718)
How about a Dino sized and weight compact sports car with 350 brake, ?
It's left to David Lee to develop decent Ferraris now
Props for doing a proper review - performance, interior and ergonomics, and true practicality.
Nothing sounds better than a Ferrari V12.
Aston hit it out of the park with the first gen DBX imo, it drives great, looks great and what few deficiencies it has should be ironed out in the next few model years when it gets an interior and infotainment upgrade probably similar to what the new DB-12 has. That said all three vehicles are among the top half dozen suv's on the planet. I just wish I could afford one. 🙄
love the new content. keep them coming
The Ferrari is not only the budget, I guess.
Even if we want one, we would have to get in line and wait for a couple of years.
Phenomenal review fellas! First time viewing your channel. As a fellow car enthusiast I really enjoyed every second of this. Greetings from The States!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed!
That Ferrari is so awesome 😈😍🇮🇹🏁It's like generations ahead of the other cars
Yup
Well, we have to also consider it's the least "SUV" like as well. In fact, I cannot imagine how it actually qualifies as an SUV. It's like a very slightly lifted vehicle that lacks nearly every attribute that makes and SUV an SUV. It's an SV without the U. lol If I'm going to compromise that much on a vehicle, why not just get a proper Ferrari, and snag another vehicle to handle the utility? A nice Range Rover perhaps? It'll be far, far, far more useful, and it's a fraction of the Ferrari's cost. I suppose that might be an unpopular take to some, but I don't see the point of this vehicle, despite it being pretty cool all things considered. At least the Bentley still has the attributes of an actual SUV and the Aston is kind of "in the middle".
@@importantvideos4529Ferrari said it's not an suv
Ferrari Purosangue another level!! Love this SUV/FUV
Aston Martin. La Classe absolue !!
He made me look around when he said the button sounds like cat getting sick. It's a good description. :)
707 for me. It looks and sounds amazing.
Sounds amazing?😂😂😂
These cars will spend the majority of their life around the centres of London, Dubai and LA and never be driven in any meaningful way.
I’d be intrigued to know the price of each car as tested - I have a sneaking feeling that the Ferrari would probably cost as much as the Aston Martin and Bentley combined. Personally, regardless of cost, I’d have the DBX707 (albeit not in that spec). Good video, thanks!
the dbx is about 240000 euros, the bentayga is about 220000 euros and the purosangue starts at 313000 euros
@@eduqloo
No Ferrari sells anywhere near base price.
I have a very nicely specc’d Bentayga (not an S) at $250K. Every single Putosangue will come in over $500K guaranteed.
@@eduqloo I said the price of each car as tested. I would imagine the Ferrari would have $200k of options as tested so double the cost of the Aston Martin and Bentley…
@@enlilannunaki9064 czcams.com/video/HDZZ7CfcPaM/video.htmlsi=tIgV9yDtZBemaFih -- 450k USD Purosangue. Other factors besides just pure profit margins come into play with MSRP. Bentayga's platform is VW for example, and the Aston's V8 is a Mercedes engine, so they did not have to invest in that development.
Thank you for this awesome video
Glad you enjoyed!
Excellent fair and honest review
My first car was a '59 Mini @ 75 quid.I would much rather have that.Yes seriously !
DBX707… what a beauty
Face of the Aston, Tail of the Ferrari, Powertrain from Ferrari, interior from Bentley.
Porsche started the trend of famous sports car brands making SUVs with the Cayenne. Pity they didn't have the ultimate version of the Cayenne (Cayenne Turbo GT) in this test.
I'd go for the Aston Martin
V12 please 😍🔥🔥🔥
Aston all the way. By far the best design.
I'm from Texas where we like things BIG i.e. Suburbans, Tahoes, 4 door lifted Pickup trucks, QX80's, Armada's.....vehicles with more cubic room inside and more practicality for the family of 4 or 6.
Sounds like the Bentley is the winner to me.
Isn’t the Bentayga Speed a more appropriate and sporty trim to compare with that W12 and a lot more hp?
I like the Ferrari the most but if I was buying an SUV for the reasons you usually buy them, I'd go for the Bentley
The Aston is definitely brilliant off road, have been there and confirm it loves muddy inclines
Bentley’s craftsmanship is unmatched!!
RR
The cat comment was very fitting, pretty much what my cats sound like.😄 Jaguars used to purr, Ferraris ...
The Ferrari in this company just seems so highly strung and wants ev😢er so much to be a 812 supafast.
It appeals to me the most of the 3 and yet it comes across as having missed the highend SUV mark. A mile muncher offering comfort, space, refinement and driving pleasure.
This is Ferrari being jacked up, fast and shouty.
Admittedly Id have it as its different to the other 2 but Id suggest that the DBX possibly offers the best blend of sports car and SUV waftability.
Nice reviews. Wish the RR Sport SV and maybe a Cayenne Turbo were included.
Jaguar F-Pace SVR is faster than the RR Sport SVR, so if it’s about performance the Jag should be included over the RR…
The Purosangue is just the choice for me 🥰 I love Bentleys and Astons but since I don't have a family I have no need for that much space and it has a big enough boot and it's tall so no need to worry for flooding :) AND it has a Naturally Aspirated V12 🥰🥰
The dbx is my favorite
That 707 is pretty sweet looking in my books.
I really hope Aston put a similar interior in The next dbx as they have in the new db12
Had a chance to experience the DBX 707 from the passenger seat a few months back and it’s absolutely riotous on a long stretch of road, and certainly strong in the bends (and it sound incredible).That being said, there were a few quality issues that I noticed just from a glance around the cabin and some basic pinching/pushing which I suspect would be absent in the Bentley.
Stelvio Quadrifoglio would be an interesting contender. Great sound and as sporty as the Ferrari but way more practical. On the other hand way down on image and luxury.
The Bentayga, being in the VW family of vehicles has it's proper place. The Lambo Urus and Porsche Cayenne Turbo are the more sporting variations. So, I believe the Bentayga is placed right where it should be. You don't want too much competition within the family.
05:18.. He said “Prince” Charles😂
Time stamp fail!
Without a doubt three great cars, with the Bentley being the one I prefer. If I had the budget however I’d buy a Cayenne Turbo GT.
Wow! A non-electric appliance test!
This is a blessed even if abusive road test the way I like in my aged 75 yo.
I can't afford any of the cars, but I can still afford dreams.
Thank you Car!
Beautiful review
Thanks!
Aurus Komendant and Yangwang U8 are the best suvs, period.
Ferrari Purosangue is in another league. They are just being kind to their English makes.
It's a pointless crossover. You get all the cons of a SUV with none of the pros.
@@MuppetsSh0w
And that's where a lot of motoring journalists and you fail to understand what it is Ferrari is trying to do. You get a car that feels more 812 SF with the new suspension but does the practical thing better than a Lusso. It's a practical Ferrari, not a practical SUV.
BMW x5 m, Mercedes gle 63 amg, Audi rsq8, porsche cayenne turbo, Range rover SV, Lamborghini urus
If we want to make this comparison,
not Bentley Bentayga
it should be Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT.
Love all three, but Ferrari would do it for me! Shame it’s such a limited production vehicle.
Exclusive… If it was mass produced it would be a Ford Explorer 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
@@RudyC24 The Purosangue will be a limited production car, differente from the other Ferraris... thats what i meant
a little frustrated that you guys didn't include at least the GT porsche, and of course the Urus, and then maybe the rsq8.. When you offer superlatives about how incredible the Ferrari is,, one can only wonder how previous superlatives used for it compare... Missed opportunity..
The Urus yes. But the Cayenne GT Turbo? If your girlfriend looked like that would you want to wake up to that every morning?
I don't know, if she could take me zero to sixty in three seconds,, maybe. but also most journalists prefer the look over the Urus,,, just saying.@@MohsinWadee
@@van123446 the Cayenne GT Turbo is Roseanne Barr, the Urus is Cindy Crawford, just saying. I would not want to wake up each morning looking at either the Bentayga or GT Turbo, I value my mental health.
@@MohsinWadee it doesn’t look that bad bro. I quite like the design
See the pinned comment...
Drove the Ferrari, owned a Bentley, and do not want an Aston. The Ferrari interior is not as plush (100% correct) but amazingly luxurious and the electrochroamatic roof option, never mentioned, is a game changer that neither Bentley nor Aston have.
I'd go for Ferrari looks, Bentley tech. Yeah that'll be me sorted(I wish!!)!!
Funny how the Ferrari SUV is still not any more roomier than the GTLusso... powertrain and gearbox practically the same, but now raised up people are calling it a home run.
So funny that...Ferrari will be laughing all the way to the bank for the next decade or more. The suspension is the "homerun", it redefines the whole game.
@@cbotten106 ...and it really offers more space ...and also more convenience of use with the 4 doors.
But whenever we talk about these level of prices, it's not space nor convenience that matter. We can get much more for 1/3 of the money which the owners of these cars already have.
This is about luxury, exclusivity, performance, driving pleasure and also pleasure of owning something special.
@@cbotten106 and the whole complicated and horrible gearbox was developed specifically so that the car wouldn't need to be taller, cuz a taller car would spoil the handling (their words). Now the whole car is lifted as an SUV, and they still use the same gearbox.
@@miks564 performance-wise it's going to be worst than the other super SUVs guaranteed. It's heavier and the torque vectoring system is unpredictable in the corners. Urus, Cayenne GT, and perhaps the DBX too will certainly walk it. Those cars are also more practical too. The only saving grace this SUV has is the exclusive V12. I would much rather have a proper driving supercar, and a proper family suv. Funny is that combined it's still cheaper than this
@@DonLee1980 That made me laugh. 😊Track times are going to easily prove you wrong.
As I’ve stated, people buying these cars already have more practical ones. No one buys a top luxury SUV because it’s convenient.
I'd take the DBX
Bring back the low slung GT sports cars!
Very good reviewers
Beautiful review, just feel like the Ferarri interior wasn't described well in terms of the material qualities as the other two.
Not sure if anyone can actually buy the Ferrari
@@paulmcgee1867- Yes, they can. I have one on order.
@@MrJohndoe996which model? 🇮🇹
I think it’s kind of nice that not every test has to include several of the VW Group’s “MLB Evo D” quadruplets: with a Bentayga perhaps we can do without testing also Q8, Urus and Cayenne. Just sayin‘ 😊
I have always disliked SUV but I think AM is changing my mind. Once the interior is fixed then I just might be a convert 😊
Where would you categorise the Urus?
If that Ferrari did not have a badge on it, I would’ve assumed it was Japanese or Korean
They copied the Toyota Crown Sport. The Crown Sport was revealed before the Purosangue.
@@electrikoptikShut up!! Ferrari copying Toyota?😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@electrikoptiksure
@@fifteen8850 Hurts I know. But the Crown Sport was released first.
@@electrikoptik I guess coincidences don’t exist then
I would like to see these compared to the Cayenne Turbo GT.
Would be much more interesting to see a Cayenne Turbo S in comparison to the DBX and Purosangue. The Bentley is a car built for maximum comfort, not for sportiness. The "S" is just for ppl to have more PS but not for driving sporty.
Porsches are the best way to compare other sporty cars to the state of the art of the car industry
Not true, the S has the same horsepower as a standard Bentayga.
@@CARmagazineTV I didn't say it doesn't.
I just say that Porsche builds cars that are sporty af and are a good comparison to a Ferrari and an AM 😉
The Bentayga and Rolls Royce Cullinan are rather good to be compared fe
Silly comparing the above without the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S, best in any class, maintenance reliability and looks. + Porsche quality.
The Ferrari is magnificent, but lacking things like Satnav are killers.
The Bentley would be my choice.
Who doesn't have Apple Car or Android Auto?
I haven't used the in-car nav in any of my cars in two years Carplay is fine.
The Urus was a better platform for competition here than the Bentley.
the most underrated channel on youtube. 😢
A ferrari sounding like my cat throwing up is one of my top 10 car review moments ever 🤣🤣
I'd have the Aston every time
I haven't even seen the video yet and the winner is: THE FERRARI!
One must remember the purpose for an SUV, which family transportation.
That said, the best compromise, for me, will be the Aston, the most fun will be the Ferrari, the most luxury and comfort of course will be the Bentley.
My personal choice, being older, will be the Bentley, because these cars are about the family.
Personally i think the DBX looks much better than the other two !
I prefer the sound of this Ferrari to the 812. There is a beautifully guttural start at the lower revs, rising to a scream. The range is greater in this compared to the 812.
No contest here. Without doubt the Ferrari is in a different league to Bentley and Aston.
That's a mic thing here. The 812 has that sound too.
The Ferrari Purosangue wins because it’s a Ferrari, unlike the Bentley Bentayga S, which shares its platform and engines with other VW Group SUV models, the Aston Martin DBX707 uses a Mercedes AMG sourced engine that Aston puts a bigger turbo on, all are fine SUVs if I had to rank them, the Ferrari Purosangue (1st), Aston Martin DBX and not here Lamborghini Urus (tied for 2nd), the Rolls-Royce Cullinan (next) and the last place the Bentley Bentayga for ultra/exotic SUVs, the Mercedes Maybach is a nicer 2-row GLS (need I say more)
Not sure how the omission of Turbo GT or Urus performante made sense here? To be fair the Turbo GT creams all of them by a large margin for performance, competency and all round usability - the Purosangue would only win if purity and emotion were the only criteria.
See pinned comment.
well the Purosangue should be able to match the performances of the Cayenne on a straight line and on a track… and edge it for exclusiveness and emotions… the Cayenne would beat it in practicality and off-road capabilities and ofc price
A 1780 kilowatt stereo, that's incredible.
I like the sinplicity of that Aston Martn
The Bentley Is Such A Beautiful Machine!
Appreciate the Upstate NY tee shirt. Rhinebeck perhaps?
Great video! But I'm a little surprised that a month after uploading it the CAR team hasn't improved the subtitles / captions. They may be very good for auto-generated, but they're far below the standard that I have come to expect from the magazine...
Apologies for the subtitles. Going through them manually for every video is an extremely time intensive task that unfortunately we do not have the resources for.
However, if you rely on the subtitles and are struggling to enjoy a particular video, put a note in the comments and we will do our best to update them within a week. We will do that for this video, too. 👍
The best suv ingene song ever ever is ferrari and lambo orus ❤
My real question is why don't suv's use air or hydraulic lift/drop to lower ride height for most driving and lift when you want? Could make them feel way more sporty and then lift when you need clearance. Yes, it would be expensive to do, but you'd gain mpg, handling and make it much easier to get in/out. Ferrari has that ability, but doesn't go that low. Trucks, same thing. Can get the clearance when offroad when needed.
Aston is just perfect SUV. The Ferrari is good and all, but it's exclusivity puts in different league.
That Toyota Crown Sport looks amazing.
