2024 Bentley Flying Spur
Starting at: $218.050

Highs: High-zoot cabin, handles well for its size, available plug-in hybrid powertrain.
Lows: Extraordinarily thirsty gas engines, none of the expected driver-assists are standard, palatial price tags.
Verdict: With a luxury-lined cabin and an expertly tuned chassis, the Flying Spur is satisfying for both the chauffeur and the chauffeured.

What's New for 2024?

Bentley quietly added a new trim to slot below the Azure in the lineup this year. The new A trim shares some of that model's styling elements, including the waterfall grille. The Flying Spur's S and Speed models receive an updated mesh grille design for 2024 and all models receive plusher floor mats made from wool and updated carpeting made from recycled nylon. The Speed model also now comes with a dark gray exterior trim to set it apart from the rest of the Flying Spur lineup.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance

All Flying Spurs come with an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, all-wheel drive, and a powerful twin-turbocharged engine. A 542-hp V-8 is standard, but we'd suggest upgrading to the Speed model which comes exclusively with the 626-hp W-12 engine. With 12 cylinders under the hood, the Flying Spur never wants for power. In fact, it can show its taillights to many top-tier sports cars in a drag race. At our test track, it leaped to 60 mph in just 3.5 seconds. The V-8-powered model delivered an identical 3.5-second zero-to-60-mph run, but the W-12 is slightly quicker to 100 mph and through the quarter-mile. A plug-in-hybrid powertrain is also available and combines a twin-turbo 2.9-liter V-6 with an electric motor for a combined 536 horses and 553 pound-feet of torque. At our test track, the PHEV snapped off a quick 3.9-second run to 60 mph, just a few tenths off the quicker V-8 and W-12 cars. When we took the Flying Spur for a brief drive near Monaco, we found it to be a far more athletic driver than we anticipated. The sedan's adaptive suspension and rear-wheel-steering system help on this front. Back in our home state of Michigan, the Flying Spur repeated its performance from our earlier drive and provided a much-needed respite from cratered roads.
