The Bentley Bentayga's Fingerprint Security Box Doesn't Look Like It Fits Anything
The Bentley Bentayga's Fingerprint Security Box Doesn't Look Like It Fits Anything-July 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:13:11

For all you owners out there, Mulliner can now fit a bio-metric security storage box in your car. To be fair, it’s a very cool idea because, as you know, I love . It really sounds like some science fiction stuff.

The fingerprint sensor will open the door to a “high pressure, die-cast aluminum secure stowage unit,” according to a company press release. It can be programmed to recognize multiple fingerprints and honestly would probably be more convenient than locking and unlocking the glove box every single time you want to use it.

Here’s the thing, though: It looks tiny! Bentley didn’t provide any dimensions for the storage unit, but these are some press photos showing a man putting his watch in there for safekeeping. It doesn’t look like there’s room for much else.

Anyway. What is something that small that I couldn’t be bothered to carry on my person as well? A wallet? No, you shouldn’t really go anywhere without your wallet. A cell phone? You shouldn’t really go anywhere without that, either. Sunglasses? If you need to hide your sunglasses as a Bentayga owner, then maybe you need to re-evaluate your priorities.

Maybe as a place to keep your car-specific TomTom, Garmin or iPod, the box makes sense. Oh wait! Nobody has any of that stuff anymore, especially not someone with a Bentley. The Bentayga has its own navigation system and your phone has all your music on it now.

What is this box actually for? SOMEONE TELL ME. Is it... is it for drugs?

I have driven the Bentley Bentayga. It is good and fast and expensive, covered in acres of leather…

Why The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Recon Is The Jeep You Want Now
The Rubicon Recon is now officially the most off-road capable Jeep you can buy off the shelf. It’s not a massive upgrade for the lineup, but there are a few significantly beefier parts and hey, is that red interior trim I see? Oh yeah, now you know it’s fancy. The...

The Next Maybach Is This Giant V12 Off-Road Convertible
We’ve known Maybach’s next project would be , and that Mercedes is planning on revealing a new variant of at this year’s Geneva Auto Show. It all makes sense now: it’s the same vehicle, and it’s a beautiful chariot of brash eminence. On Saturday, Mercedes tweeted this picture of the...

The Awesome Off-Roading 2017 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Will Start At $40,995
The, an off-road version of the brand’s standard mid-size truck (with an available diesel!), just got a price tag, and it ain’t cheap. But it doesn’t have a ton of competition in this segment. The ZR2 was the last year, coming with fancy “Multimatic” shocks, a two-inch lift over the...

The Original Toyota Land Cruiser Had A Big Brother And It Looks Amazing Restomoded
The original you know as a rugged adventure icon is called the FJ40, or “Shorty Forty” because of its relatively short wheelbase. Since then there have been many Cruiser variants over the years, but the 40’s big brother the FJ45 is one of the coolest and least-appreciated. This restored and...

Here's What The New 2018 Ford Expedition Looks Like
Ford’s new, fourth-generation Expedition is going to be made of boron steel and aluminum, built on a modified half-ton F150 chassis, and, according to these , will look like this. Looks like our predictions that the new were completely, utterly wrong. To be honest, I’m happy about that. I think...

The 2018 Dodge Durango SRT Is A Minivan With A 0-60 Time You Can Brag About
We get it Dodge, big engines in everything. The company started committing this schtick when it revived the Charger a decade ago and frankly, I’m surprised it took this long to make a monster version of the . But here we finally are: six seats, 4.4 seconds to 60 mph....
