It’s
the most powerful four-door Bentley of all times. And they dropped it
like it’s hot at the New York International Auto Show…’cause it is! Lauded by Bentley as “The world’s most refined performance
sedan,” the $200,500 Flying Spur made its North American debut this week.

“We’re excited to show the new Flying Spur in one of Bentley’s most
important markets in the world – New York,” said Christophe Georges,
President and COO, Bentley Motors, Inc.

Powering the new Flying
Spur is Bentley’s renowned 616 horsepower, 590 lb. ft of
torque–6.0-litre, twin turbo W12 engine, harnessed by a ZF eight-speed
transmission. As a result, a breath-taking 0-60 mph in 4.3 seconds, with
a top-speed of 200 mph is the set standard.

Bentley’s styling team developed an athletic design for the new
Flying Spur that combines traditional Bentley styling cues with a
sporting stance and contemporary details. Sharp feature lines complement
muscular rear haunches, while LED daytime running lights (DRL’s),
dipped headlights and taillights compliment the front and rear profiles.

The spacious, luxurious interior cabin dresses advanced acoustic and
electronic technologies in exquisite hand-crafted leather hides and
wood veneers. Driver and passengers can both interface with the car and
the outside world through Wi-Fi, touch-screen infotainment, a Rear Seat
Entertainment suite and a new bespoke hand-held Touch Screen Remote
which allows rear-cabin occupants to control an extensive range of
features from the comfort of their seat. An eight-channel, eight-speaker
audio system with Balanced Mode Radiators provides high quality sound
clarity, with the 1100 watt Naim for Bentley premium system (an
available option).

Keep an eye out for the new Flying Spur on the streets in your city sometime during the second quarter of this year.
