A Big Sedan With Strong Performance<\/h2>\n

Bentley<\/a> finally graced us with the appearance of the third-generation Flying Spur<\/a>. The car features the same underpinnings as the new Continental GT<\/a> and is said to be sportier than ever before. The company claims the car is the “world\u2019s most advanced luxury Grand Touring sports sedan.”<\/strong> We hope that’s correct. <\/p>\n

Judging by some of the additions to the car, we’d speculate Bentley is right about that. The car gets an aluminum and composite chassis, active 48-volt anti-roll bars, all-wheel steering, all-wheel drive, and Bentley Dynamic Ride<\/strong> for wonderful ride quality. <\/p>\n

Powering the big sedan is a variety of engines with the range-topping one getting a 6.0-liter twin-turbo W12 engine.<\/strong> That powerplant puts out 626 hp and 664 lb-ft of torque.<\/strong> An eight-speed dual clutch transmission wrangles all that power in a way the all-wheel-drive system sees fit. <\/p>\n

The new Flying Spur can do a 0-60 mph time of just 3.7 seconds and has a top speed of 207 mph.<\/strong> It’s not all about straight-line speed, though. The company adjusted the weight of the car, too, which ensures it’s a better handling car on the road. <\/p>\n

Inside, you get an obscene amount of luxury materials and technology, including luscious leather throughout the cabin, real metal and real wood trim, a 12.3-inch touchscreen, a digital instrument cluster, and remote control for the infotainment system for the rear passengers.<\/p>\n

The wheelbase of the car was stretched by over five inches.<\/strong> Most of that length went to making the interior as spacious as possible. It also helps further smooth out the ride of this luxurious beast of a machine. We can’t wait to see one in the flesh. <\/p>\n
