The Bentley Bentayga Extended Wheelbase is the most refined seven-seat SUV available in production, with a 120 mm longer wheelbase than the standard Bentayga, rear captain's chairs with 40 degrees of recline and individual adjustable leg rests, and a specification level drawn from the Bentayga's position at the apex of the luxury SUV category. For FFGR Monaco clients travelling as a family group — principal, partner, and children, or a principal with an executive team of five — the Bentayga EWB provides the space, the comfort, and the Bentley identity without any reduction in specification relative to the two-seat-focused models in the fleet.
120 mm Extended Wheelbase and Seven-Seat Layout
The Bentayga Extended Wheelbase adds 120 mm to the standard model's 2,995 mm wheelbase, bringing the overall length to 5,137 mm. The additional length is allocated entirely to the rear compartment, increasing rear legroom from 982 mm to 1,116 mm in the second row. The third row — which seats two children or two adults for shorter journeys — is accessed via a powered folding second-row seat mechanism and has 852 mm of legroom, adequate for occupants up to approximately 1.75 metres for transfers of under 45 minutes.
The second-row captain's seats are the defining feature of the EWB specification. Each seat reclines to 40 degrees, deploys a powered extending leg rest, and has independent heating, ventilation, and massage functions. The centre console between the second-row seats houses the Bentley Rear Entertainment system screens, rear climate controls, and a storage unit. The FFGR EWB fleet vehicles include the optional third-row seating package, which gives a seven-seat configuration with folding access in under 15 seconds.
Mulliner Specification and Interior Personalisation
The FFGR Monaco Bentayga EWB fleet vehicles are specified to the Mulliner standard, which adds the Bentayga's most comprehensive interior specification: the rotating centre console with wine cooler and glasses storage, the Touring Specification rear entertainment screens, and the Bentley-specific Naim Premium Audio system with 1,095 watts and 17 speakers tuned specifically for the EWB's longer interior dimensions.
The exterior specification uses Bentley's Tempest paint — a deep silver with blue-green metallic flake that reads as formally neutral at hotel entrances and distinctively individual in direct sunlight. The interior carries the Linen main hide with Brunel secondary hide and Dark Stained Burr Walnut veneer, a combination that achieves warmth without ostentation. Bentley's illuminated door tread plates carry the Bentley wings motif in LED, visible when the doors open at hotel or heliport arrivals.
Family and Group Transfer Logistics
FFGR's Bentayga EWB is the primary vehicle for family group transfers in Monaco: school runs for families resident in the Principality or on the Cap Ferrat during the winter season, airport transfers for the full family group including luggage, and event transfers where the group requires a single vehicle rather than two saloons. The luggage capacity with all seven seats occupied is 243 litres — adequate for three full-size soft bags or four carry-on cases — and the boot floor extends to 1,709 litres with the third row folded.
For families with young children, the Bentayga EWB accommodates ISOFIX child seats in the second-row captain's chairs and the outboard third-row positions. FFGR maintains a range of child seat types — infant seats, forward-facing seats with harness, and booster seats — that are cleaned and safety-checked after each use and are available without surcharge for clients who request them.
Monaco to Airport and Border Transfers
The most common group transfer route in Monaco is to Nice Côte d'Azur Airport, a distance of 22 kilometres that takes 25 minutes under normal conditions and 40 minutes during peak summer traffic. With the Bentayga EWB, the full family group — including hand luggage, pushchairs, and sports equipment — can be accommodated in a single vehicle, eliminating the coordination required for two-vehicle transfers.
For families departing from Monaco's heliport at Fontvieille to connect to private aircraft at Cannes Mandelieu, Marseille, or Turin, the Bentayga EWB provides the loading space for equipment that helicopter transfers cannot accommodate. FFGR coordinates the heliport transfer timing with the helicopter operator and the receiving airport handling agent to ensure the vehicle arrives at the aircraft steps with the correct timing and documentation for immediate boarding.
