Overview
- Bentley publicly revealed the refreshed Flying Spur on Tuesday, replacing the long‑standing quad‑headlight face with a Continental GT‑style single/twin lamp arrangement and making modest bumper, boot and wheel changes.
- The revived Flying Spur S uses a high‑performance plug‑in hybrid V8 that delivers roughly 671–680 bhp and about 930 Nm (686 lb‑ft) of torque and is rated for roughly 0–60/0–62 mph in about 3.6–3.7 seconds with a 191 mph top speed.
- To sharpen handling the S gains a Performance Active Chassis with active all‑wheel drive, twin‑valve dampers, a 48‑volt active anti‑roll system, torque vectoring and an electronic limited‑slip differential.
- Bentley has expanded bespoke options including the Mulliner Virtuoso Collection and offers the Naim for Mulliner 21‑speaker audio system as an extra cost option priced at £25,000 excluding taxes.
- Orders are open now with production scheduled to begin at Crewe in September 2026 and first customer deliveries expected in the fourth quarter of 2026, positioning the hybrid Flying Spur as a six‑figure flagship while Bentley phases full electrification toward 2035.
