    Looks to me like a Toyota Venza with a ridiculous body kit.

    Venza Bently = Benza ???? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

    You are correct Bean 328.. I googled Venza Bentley and came up with quite a few links.

    And just FYI, it was an elder lady driving it. Looked to be about 70 yrs old. Had two hands on the wheel at 11 and 1.
    Truck actually looked pretty decent in traffic. I could def see how a non-car enthusiast would think it really was a Bentley SUV. Notice I said NON-CAR enthusiast lol.

    Looks better than the usual Venza. Good for her, nothing wrong with stamping a little individualism on the invisible.

    The level of insecurity one must have to feel the need to do that is astounding.

    It's got Iowa plates (see pic #3 above) & at this time of year, half of the Phoenix metroplex is likely snowbirds from Midwest. :)

    And I agree with others, this looks better than pics I've seen of Bentayga.

    I saw a Bentley SUV kit in West Des Moines, IA a year or two ago. I bet this is the same vehicle.

    It needs propped Bentley tailpipes!

    The circular design ones for the V8, and oval for W12... Bummer they're tiny circles.. Lol

    One of the original posts said it was a 70-year old woman, not your typical poser
    demographic.
