2024 Bentley Flying Spur - Luxury Sedan

A study in craftsmanship and contemporary design, the Flying Spur showcases Bentley’s modern sculptural design language through elegant yet muscular proportions. A bold exterior is based on a modern vision that remains unmistakably Bentley.

With a wheelbase lengthened by 130mm compared to the previous generation model, the latest Flying Spur has an increased road presence and stronger, more muscular lines sweeping the full length of the car.

Flying Spur has been recreated from the ground up on a wholly new platform. The sculpted surfaces and beautiful power lines are made possible by the use of aluminium ‘superforming’, a process first proven on the latest generation Bentley Continental GT.

Bentley has utilised the latest technologies in aluminium extrusions and castings, alongside high-strength steels for the new Flying Spur, offering best-in-class body stiffness to optimise the handling and rigidity.

LED matrix headlights are standard on the Flying Spur, with unique cut-crystal effect detailing. A chrome sleeve has been added behind the cut element to make them sparkle, even when not lit. At the rear, wrap-around lamps utilise the familiar ‘B’ graphic and echoes the diamond knurling of the interior air vents.

A full size, glass-to-glass panoramic sunroof can also be specified. The front panel tilts and slides rearwards over the top of the fixed back panel. Alcantara blinds deploy electrically and are colour-matched to the 15 interior headlining colours.

The interior of the Flying Spur showcases Bentley’s expertise in creating a modern, innovative cabin of unrivalled luxury. Stylish and unique, the car features supremely comfortable seats in 15 hide colours, with Bentley’s iconic ‘Wing’ theme across the lower console and fascia.

Sweeping horizontal veneer flows across the elegant dashboard and into the doors, emphasising the spacious width of the cabin. A floating centre console houses the customisable 12.3-inch HD touchscreen and Bentley ‘sculptural’ centre vents, front and rear. These contain stowage as well as inductive ‘wireless’ charging, plus two USB sockets for mobile phones.

The Bentley Rotating Display – an industry first - is available on the latest Flying Spur. By pressing the engine start button, a veneer section in the middle of the dashboard rotates to reveal a 12.3-inch touchscreen, displaying three, customisable digital tiles. The second side of the display offers three elegant analogue dials, showing outside temperature, a compass and chronometer. Choose a complete digital detox on the third side, allowing the wood veneer fascia to continue seamlessly around the cabin.

The Bentley Flying Spur is available with three characterful powertrain options, a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 petrol, a new Hybrid, or a 6.0-litre W12 petrol.
The Flying Spur V8 offers a more driver-centric experience via increased agility and a more characterful engine note. The racetrack-proven V8 also benefits from increased range between fuel stops and a reduction in CO2 emissions.

Bentley’s 4.0-litre, twin turbocharged V8 engine produces a peak power of 550PS (542bhp, 404kW) and used twin-scroll turbos to reach its maximum torque of 770Nm at just under 2000 rpm, maintaining this as a flat plateau through to 4500 rpm.

A key feature of the twin-scroll turbochargers is the two separate, parallel flow channels in the turbine housing. The result is high torque available at low speeds. The turbos are located inside the ‘V’ of the engine, minimising the distance the exhaust gases travel from the engine to the turbochargers, promoting rapid response and high–efficiency.

The turbochargers store up boost pressure on light throttle openings, comparable to a dam and reservoir, so boost pressure is instantly available again when the throttle is opened wide, significantly improving throttle response and engine flexibility.

The 90 degree ‘V’ configuration, cross-plane crankshaft and eight perfectly balanced cylinders give the engine its characteristic and unmistakable V8 engine sound and the impressive power output provides a 0-60 mph time of 4.0secs (0-100kph, 4.1 secs) and a top speed of 198 mph (318 kph).

To maximise fuel economy, the V8 can shut down four of its eight cylinders under light-load conditions, when torque demand is below 235 Nm and engine speed is below 3000 rpm. The change is imperceptible to the occupants – with deactivation times of around 20 milliseconds (a tenth of the time it takes to blink).

The result is a fuel consumption benefit to the customer of up to 16 per cent, which also means increased range, lower environmental impact and longer driving between fuel stops.
