Unlike Rolls-Royce, Bentley's ultra-luxury coupes and sedans place more emphasis on driver engagement than ultimate rear-seat decadence. Despite its size, the Flying Spur has always exhibited surprising nimbleness, so the introduction of a faster and more powerful Flying Spur Speed feels like a natural progression for the sedan. As one of the last models to feature the legendary W12 engine, the Speed produces a stout 626 horsepower and can propel the sedan to a heady top speed of 207 mph. Electronic all-wheel steering makes it pretty agile, too, and there are racy but tasteful touches everywhere to remind you of the car's additional power. Let's find out more about the mightiest Flying Spur yet.
When Is The Bentley Flying Spur Speed Coming Out?
The Bentley Flying Spur Speed's release date has been confirmed for the first quarter of 2023 as a 2023 model in the USA.
2023 Bentley Flying Spur Speed Price And Competition
As a replacement for the standard Flying Spur W12 that ceased production in May 2022, the 2023 Bentley Flying Spur Speed's price is naturally higher than the model it usurps. Bentley has confirmed the price in the USA to be an MSRP of $258,700 before options.
Rivals for the 2023 Flying Spur Speed will include the Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge which will likely command a higher price but isn't quite as powerful as the Flying Spur Speed. A cheaper alternative is the Mercedes-Maybach S in S680 guise. That has a twin-turbo V12 and just 5 hp less than the Bentley yet is expected to retail for close to $100,000 less. However, it's nowhere near the athlete the Bentley is bound to be.
