The facelifted model was released in June 2020. Changes include new 3D elliptical tail-lights with animated LEDs, similar to those on the third-generation Continental GT, and a rear number plate repositioned onto the bumper to allow for ‘Bentley’ to be spelled out across the tailgate. The rear spoiler was enlarged. New side vents, a new {{cvt|22|in}} wheel design, and two paint colours were added. New oval-shaped split tailpipes, heated wipers with 22 washer jets in each arm, and an optional Blackline variant with blacked-out chrome complete the external alterations.
Changes were made in the cabin, such as in the rear, where new seat frames in combination with extra reclining allow a {{cvt|100|mm}} increase in knee space. The rear seats are ventilated, and four, five, and seven seat variants are available. Rear passengers also receive an updated 5.0-in removable touchscreen tablet to control entertainment and comfort functions.
The infotainment has a new system with a higher resolution 10.9-in touchscreen. Included are [[Apple CarPlay]] and [[Android Auto]] as well as [[USB-C]] ports, [[air ioniser]]s, wireless smartphone charging, and an embedded [[SIM card]] for data services. The traditional instrument dials have been replaced with a digital display (like in newer Bentleys) and the head-up display shows much more data. The audio system is a 790W, 12-speaker stereo with an optional Naim system that has 1780W and 20 speakers.
The base model features a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine generating {{cvt|542|hp|kW PS|0|abbr=on}}. Optional is the V6 plug-in hybrid which will come to the market by late 2020. An updated Bentayga Speed was introduced in August 2020. It shares the same 6.0-litre twin-turbocharged W12 engine with the older Bentayga Speed which generates {{cvt|626|hp|kW PS|0|abbr=on}}.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-06-30|title=Facelifted 2021 Bentley Bentayga Adds Refinement, Tech And Continental GT Taillights|url=https://www.carscoops.com/2020/06/facelifted-2021-bentley-bentayga-adds-refinement-tech-and-exp-10-speed-6-taillights/|access-date=2021-12-22|website=Carscoops|language=en-US}}</ref>
==Variants== === Bentayga S === [[File:Bentley Bentayga S 1X7A6395.jpg|thumb|Bentley Bentayga S (V8)]] In May 2021, Bentley released the Bentayga S, which is at the fourth model of the line-up, joining the plug-in hybrid, the standard V8, and the W12-powered Speed. According to Bentley, the S variant has a more "aggressively styled" design. The Bentayga S is equipped with a different 22-inch wheels, a larger rear spoiler, black lower-body panels, tinted light clusters, and black oval sports exhaust.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Brodie |first=James |date=2021-05-26 |title=New Bentley Bentayga S brings sportier flavour to Bentayga V8 line-up |url=https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/bentley/bentayga/355097/new-bentley-bentayga-s-brings-sportier-flavour-bentayga-v8-line |access-date=2023-04-17 |website=Auto Express |language=en}}</ref>

Aimed at providing "wellbeing" and comfort, the luxury-oriented Azure contrasts from the sportier S models.
