Bentley has unveiled the new Flying Spur four-door sedan, aligning its styling more closely with the Continental GT, as well as bringing back the sportier S variant; the lineup also includes standard, Speed, Azure and Mulliner versions. It even gains the 21-speaker Naim for Mulliner sound system, originally developed for the limited-run Bentley Batur, albeit as an option. Production of the 2026 Flying Spur is due to start at Bentley's Crewe plant in the UK in September.
- All Flying Spur models use a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 with a plug-in hybrid setup
- It makes 680hp in standard, Azure and S trims, 782hp in Speed and Mulliner versions
2026 Bentley Flying Spur powertrains
Just like the standard and Azure variants, the S trim uses a twin-turbo 4-litre V8 and a 25.9kWh plug-in-hybrid setup, belting out peak outputs of 680hp and 930Nm. However, the latter takes 3.7 seconds to do a 0-100kph sprint, topping out at 308kph. The respective figures for the standard and Azure are 3.9 seconds and 270kph.
In the Flying Spur Speed and Mulliner, the plug-in hybrid powertrain develops 782hp and 1,000Nm. Both hit the 100kph mark from rest in 3.5 seconds, while top speed is 308kph.
In electric-only mode, peak outputs drop to 190hp and 450Nm, and the battery provides a single-charge range of 80km, as per Bentley. All Bentley Flying Spur models get an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic and all-wheel drive layout. The S also gets the active anti-roll bars and dampers from the Speed and Mulliner models, which the carmaker claims have been tuned to deliver maximum sporting appeal and ability.

Up front, it gets a massive grille with a criss-cross design, flanked by round LED headlights, each with a horizontal DRL streak; the criss-cross pattern also extends to the bumper grille below.
