Compare the2026 Jeep Grand Wagoneer L VS 2026 Bentley Bentayga

The Jeep Grand Wagoneer L has standard driver and front passenger side knee airbags mounted low on the dashboard. These airbags help prevent the driver and front passenger from sliding under their seatbelts or the main frontal airbags; this keeps them better positioned during a collision for maximum protection. Knee airbags also help keep the legs from striking the dashboard, preventing knee and leg injuries in the case of a serious frontal collision. The Bentayga doesn’t offer knee airbags.

In a Vehicle-to-Vehicle Frontal Crash Prevention 2.0 test conducted by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), the Jeep Grand Wagoneer L achieved a “Acceptable” rating - the second highest possible - for its performance in forward collision warning and automatic braking systems, demonstrating its excellent capabilities in preventing collisions. The Bentley Bentayga has not been tested.

The Grand Wagoneer L’s driver alert monitor detects an inattentive driver then sounds a warning and suggests a break. According to the NHTSA, drivers who fall asleep cause about 100,000 crashes and 1500 deaths a year. The Bentayga doesn’t offer a driver alert monitor.

Both the Grand Wagoneer L and the Bentayga have standard driver and passenger frontal airbags, front side-impact airbags, side-impact head airbags, front seatbelt pretensioners, height adjustable front shoulder belts, plastic fuel tanks, four-wheel antilock brakes, traction control, electronic stability systems to prevent skidding, crash mitigating brakes, daytime running lights, blind spot warning systems, rearview cameras, rear cross-path warning, available all-wheel drive and around view monitors.

Jeep’s powertrain warranty covers the Grand Wagoneer L 2 years longer than Bentley covers the Bentayga. Any repair needed on the engine, transmission, axles, joints or driveshafts is fully covered for 5 years or 60,000 miles. Coverage on the Bentayga ends after only 3 years.

The Grand Wagoneer L’s corrosion warranty is 2 years longer than the Bentayga’s (5 vs. 3 years).

There are almost 50 times as many Jeep dealers as there are Bentley dealers, which makes it much easier should you ever need service under the Grand Wagoneer L’s warranty.

On the EPA test cycle the Grand Wagoneer L gets better mileage than the Bentayga running its gasoline engine:

			MPG
Grand Wagoneer L
	RWD	3.0 turbo 6-cyl.	17 city/24 hwy
	AWD	3.0 turbo 6-cyl.	16 city/22 hwy
Bentayga
	AWD	4.0 turbo V8	14 city/21 hwy

To lower fuel costs and make buying fuel easier, the Jeep Grand Wagoneer L uses regular unleaded gasoline (mid-grade octane recommended for maximum performance). The Bentayga requires premium, which can cost on average about 35.1 cents more per gallon.

The Grand Wagoneer L has 10.7 gallons more fuel capacity than the Bentayga Hybrid’s standard fuel tank (30.5 vs. 19.8 gallons), for longer range between fill-ups. The Grand Wagoneer L has 8 gallons more fuel capacity than the Bentayga’s standard fuel tank (30.5 vs. 22.5 gallons).

The Grand Wagoneer L has a standard cap-less fueling system. The fuel filler is automatically opened when the fuel nozzle is inserted and automatically closed when it’s removed. This eliminates the need to unscrew and replace the cap and it reduces fuel evaporation, which causes pollution. The Bentayga doesn’t offer a cap-less fueling system.

The Grand Wagoneer L stops shorter than the Bentayga:

	Grand Wagoneer L	Bentayga
70 to 0 MPH	190 feet	195 feet	Car and Driver

The Jeep Grand Wagoneer L’s wheels have 6 lugs for longer wheel bearing life, less chance of rotor warping and greater strength. The Bentley Bentayga only has 5 wheel lugs per wheel.

The Grand Wagoneer L has a standard easy tire fill system. When inflating the tires, the vehicle’s integrated tire pressure sensors keep track of the pressure as the tires fill and tell the driver when the tires are inflated to the proper pressure. The Bentayga doesn’t offer vehicle monitored tire inflation.

The Grand Wagoneer L has a standard full size spare tire so a flat doesn’t interrupt your trip. A full size spare isn’t available on the Bentayga; it requires you to depend on a temporary spare, which has mileage and speed limitations, or roadside assistance and a tow-truck.

For a smoother ride and more stable handling, the Grand Wagoneer L’s wheelbase is 12.1 inches longer than on the Bentayga (130 inches vs. 117.9 inches).

For better handling and stability, the track (width between the wheels) on the Grand Wagoneer L is 2 inches wider in the front and 1.1 inches wider in the rear than on the Bentayga.

The Grand Wagoneer L’s front to rear weight distribution is more even (51% to 49%) than the Bentayga’s (56% to 44%). This gives the Grand Wagoneer L more stable handling and braking.

For greater off-road capability the Grand Wagoneer L Air Suspension has a greater minimum ground clearance than the Bentayga (10 vs. 9.7 inches), allowing the Grand Wagoneer L to travel over rougher terrain without being stopped or damaged.

The front grille of the Grand Wagoneer L uses electronically controlled shutters to close off airflow and reduce drag when less engine cooling is needed. This helps improve highway fuel economy. The Bentayga doesn’t offer active grille shutters.

The Grand Wagoneer L uses computer-generated active noise cancellation to help remove annoying noise and vibration from the passenger compartment, especially at low frequencies. The Bentayga doesn’t offer active noise cancellation.

The Grand Wagoneer L offers optional seating for 8 passengers; the Bentayga can only carry 5.

The Grand Wagoneer L has 70.3 cubic feet more passenger volume than the Bentayga (179.3 vs. 109).

The Grand Wagoneer L’s cargo area provides more volume than the Bentayga.

	Grand Wagoneer L	Bentayga
Third Seat Folded	85.3 cubic feet	n/a
Third Seat Removed	n/a	17.1 cubic feet
Second Seat Folded	130.9 cubic feet	62.6 cubic feet

The Grand Wagoneer L’s cargo area is larger than the Bentayga’s in almost every dimension:

	Grand Wagoneer L	Bentayga	Bentayga EWB
Length to seat (3rd/2nd/1st)	37.1”/71.5”/105.2”	n.a./n/a	n.a./43”
Max Width	51.5”	n/a	52.1”
Min Width	51.5”	n/a	42.7”
Height	36.8”	31.3”	28.2”

The Grand Wagoneer L’s available rear seats fold to accommodate long and bulky cargo. The Bentayga w/Four Seat Comfort Specification doesn’t offer folding rear seats, only a ski pass-through.

Maximum trailer towing in the Bentley Bentayga is limited to 7165 pounds. The Grand Wagoneer L 4x4 offers up to a 9860 lbs. towing capacity.

The Grand Wagoneer L 4WD with optional equipment can be flat towed on all four wheels (dinghy towed), allowing recreational vehicle owners to bring it with them on the road. When they reach their destination, the Grand Wagoneer L can be unhitched and driven around locally. The Bentayga can’t be towed flat on the ground.

Trailer Sway Control is standard on all models of the Grand Wagoneer L, using the Electronic Stability Control sensors to detect trailer sway, then uses individual brakes to counteract any swaying and help keep the tow vehicle and trailer steady. The Bentayga Hybrid doesn’t offer a trailer sway program.

The Grand Wagoneer L has a higher maximum payload capacity than the Bentayga (1550 vs. 1510 lbs.).

The Grand Wagoneer L’s instruments include an oil pressure gauge and a temperature gauge - which could save your engine! Often ‘idiot lights’ don’t warn you until damage has been done. The Bentayga does not have an oil pressure gauge.

To improve rear visibility by keeping the rear window clear, the Grand Wagoneer L has a standard rear fixed intermittent wiper with a full on position. The rear wiper standard on the Bentayga only has an intermittent setting, so in a hard rain visibility isn’t as good.

The Jeep Grand Wagoneer L has a standard Homelink wireless remote control system for garage door operation and device management, conveniently located on the driver’s visor. Homelink® eliminates the need for separate garage door openers and associated risks of losing, breaking, or having dead batteries. Bentley charges extra for Homelink® on the Bentayga.

The Grand Wagoneer L has a 115-volt a/c outlet on the center console, allowing you to recharge a laptop or run small household appliances without special adapters that can break or get misplaced. The Bentayga doesn’t offer a house-current electrical outlet.

The Grand Wagoneer L is available in both rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive configurations. The Bentayga doesn’t offer a two-wheel drive configuration.

The Jeep Wagoneer outsold the Bentley Bentayga by almost 48 to one during 2024.
