Bentley Bentayga now comes with biometric security stowage

Those who buy Bentley cars are super rich. And super rich people carry very, very expensive things with them, be it their diamond studded watches, or wallets containing credit cards with no limits at all. Now if they ever want to leave these expensive items behind in their car, they can do so without losing their peace of mind.

Bentley is introducing capacitive fingerprint sensor technology with a secure stowage unit in the Bentayga  model. Developed by Bentley’s personal commissioning division, Mulliner, the fingerprint sensor technology has been applied to a high pressure die-cast aluminium secure stowage unit located in the cabin.

This discreet and unobtrusive locker creates the ideal place to stow valuables while at the beach, on the ski slope or utilising valet parking services.

With two USB ports and an auxiliary socket, it can also be used for connecting and charging mobile devices both inside and outside of the unit, enabling occupants to access Bentayga’s extensive infotainment technology, including Apple CarPlay.

Uday Senapati, Mulliner’s Head of Technical Operations, said, “The Mulliner Biometric Secure Stowage unit is hidden from view. We are incorporating the familiar capacitive fingerprint sensor technology from smartphones that can store multiple fingerprints, allowing the user to control who accesses their valuables.”
