Bentley unveils its most powerful four-door ever with the new Flying Spur, now in its fourth generation. This flagship model represents a significant leap in luxury performance, blending stunning power with cutting-edge technology.
Performance and Efficiency
The Flying Spur Speed, debuting as Bentley’s first four-door supercar, is equipped with the new Ultra Performance Hybrid system. It combines a 600 PS 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 with a 190 PS electric motor, delivering a combined output of 782 PS and 1,000 Nm of torque. This powertrain accelerates the Flying Spur from 0-60 mph in just 3.3 seconds, 0.5 seconds faster than its predecessor, while achieving a CO2 emission reduction of 90%.
In pure electric mode, the Flying Spur offers a range of up to 47 miles (76 km) and a total range of 515 miles (829 km) when combining both power sources. The advanced hybrid system also features multiple driving modes, including pure EV, electric boost, and regenerative braking.
Design and Technology
The Flying Spur retains its signature muscular elegance with refreshed design elements. The new model features dark-tinted brightware, a Speed-specific grille, and a Styling Specification aero package. New LED Welcome Lamps project an animated Bentley Wings logo, and a range of 22-inch wheels offer various finishes.
Inside, the Flying Spur showcases Bentley’s craftsmanship with new 3D diamond quilting, a range of trim options, and the Bentley Rotating Display with a choice of high-definition screens or handcrafted veneer. Customization options include 101 exterior colors and over 700 interior hide combinations, ensuring a bespoke experience.
Comfort and Innovation
The new Flying Spur introduces advanced wellness features, including the Wellness Seating Specification with Seat Auto Climate and Postural Adjust. The car’s air conditioning system now includes air ionizers and particulate filters, improving cabin air quality.
The infotainment system boasts wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and over-the-air map updates. The My Bentley App Studio integrates a range of applications directly into the car’s system, including music, video, navigation, and parking.
