Prior to its unveil at the Geneva Motor Show on 5th March, Bentley has released the first images and details of its all-new-for-2014 Flying Spur – the most powerful luxury four-door model in the company’s history.
According to the British brand, the new Flying Spur combines “traditional Bentley styling cues with a sporting stance and contemporary details”. It features LED day-time running lights, dipped headlights and taillights. The interior is, as expected from Bentley, luxurious and spacious with acoustic and electronic technologies dressed in hand-crafted leather hides and wood veneers.
Other luxuries include a touch-screen infotainment system, mobile connectivity including Wi-Fi, a Rear Seat Entertainment suite, a new hand-held Touch Screen Remote, and an eight-channel, eight-speaker audio system with Balanced Mode Radiators.
Powering the new Flying Spur is Bentley’s 6.0-litre twin turbo W12 engine, coupled to a ZF eight-speed transmission. Developing 616 bhp and 800 Nm of torque, the new Flying Spur features more power than any other Bentley four-door in history. A 14 per cent improvement in the power-to-weight ratio over the outgoing model delivers a 0-100 km/h time of 4.3 seconds and a top-speed of 322 km/h. Power is delivered to the road via all-wheel drive.
