Luxury limousine cars don't come in many flavors these days; non-stretch varieties can be counted on one's hands, for the most part. For the chauffeuring driver, that's of no huge concern. However, for the driven, such a lack of variety can make the act of choosing a luxury sedan limo seem like a chore, not a pleasure.
Enter the Bentley Flying Spur. Although it's no one-to-one replacement for the recently discontinued Mulsanne, the new Flying Spur has sufficiently taken that dead model's Bentley chauffeur reins. Currently, as Bentley's sole four-door saloon, Flying Spur boasts everything one could want in a luxury limo, sans driver.
"The Flying Spur is a very, very convincing car, handsome and stately enough to usurp the now-deceased Mulsanne, more bespoke and special than a Bentayga, arguably an even bigger step forward on its forebears than the Continental GT. It’s the best advert for the traditional four-door saloon we’ve driven in years." - Top Gear
Designed For the Driven
Inside, Flying Spur boasts a generous back seat that's fit for royalty.
Handcrafted surfaces, including carbon fiber and high-end aluminum, line the interior shell. Dinamica suede-like window blinds, supple trimmings and genuine leather upholstery only reemphasize Flying Spur's "top luxury limo" credentials. Like all Bentley models, the Flying Spur offers a whole range of unique, bespoke offerings that take the whole "luxury transportation" to a new level. If carbon-fiber door paneling isn't your thing, for instance, simply ask your Bentley dealer to go over your other commissionable options, such as unique hide colors, veneers and stitching.
Further enhance that rear-seat experience by purchasing a Bentley Flying Spur with a Bentley Rear Entertainment package. This virtually must-have package adds two removable 10.1" touchscreens for everything from content streaming to virtual meetings mirrored from a smart device. (Hey, work won't complete itself!)
Passengers can utilize Bentley's Touchscreen Remote (TSR) to personalize their journey. This wireless tablet allows for complete control of the cabin's audio system—a 16-channel 1,550W Bang & Olufsen setup—heating and AC, sunroof blinds, and even seat functions like ventilation and massage.
Consider yourself an audiophile? If the standard Bang & Olufsen somehow doesn't blow your socks off, upgrade to the 20-channel 2,200W Naim system to deliver concert-quality sound straight to the cabin. As one of the best car sound systems in the world, it's the angelic Garfunkel to this clever cabin's Paul Simon.
Fun for the Driver, Too
Under the guise of a four-door car, the Flying Spur delivers everything that makes grand tourers grand tourers. And it all begins with your choice of engine (and trim).
Opting for the 4.0L V8 grants you 542 BHP and 568 lb-ft of torque. That equates to a max speed of 198 mph and a 0-60 time of 4 seconds flat. The V8 is equippable in Flying Spur, Mulliner, Azure and S models.
Lead-footed drivers may want to pick the 6.0L W12 engine, which makes 626 BPH and 664 lb-ft of torque. That gets you from 0 to 60 in a blistering 3.7 seconds, as well as a top speed of 207 mph. This is standard in Flying Spur Speed and Speed Edition 12, and available in the Mulliner.
For longer nonstop treks, choose the 2.9L V6 Hybrid. It may not be as speed demon-y as the 6.0 or 4.0, but it's no slacker off the line, granting a max speed of 177 mph, 536 BHP and 553 lb-ft of torque. It also breaks 60 mph in a not-too-shabby 4.1 seconds. Flying Spur, Azure, S and Mulliner can all be equipped with the Bentley hybrid plant. If you're looking for high-end luxury cars with good gas mileage, the Flying Spur Hybrid is tough to beat. In fact, Flying Spur is the most economical luxury car to ever roll out of the Bentley factory.
At its heart, the Flying Spur is built for those who delight in traveling—whether that means being chauffeured or sitting behind the wheel.
