2024 Bentley Flying Spur
Starting at $215.000 est
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.
Overview
While many of its buyers may elect to be driven while they luxuriate-or close deals-in the rear seat, the 2024 Bentley Flying Spur is a luxury sedan that's rewarding to drive as well. When the day calls for it, the Flying Spur can carve up curvy stretches of road with aplomb without compromising its serene cruising attitude. Most models are powered by twin-turbo V-8 or twin-turbo W-12 gas engines, but a plug-in hybrid V-6 is also offered and that powertrain delivered 35 miles of electric-only driving in our testing. All models are dressed to impress, with cabins layered in leather, wood, and metal; amenities are plentiful too, including optional massaging rear bucket seats. All of this extravagance comes at an equally extravagant price though, placing the Flying Spur out of reach for all but the wealthiest buyers. If you're lucky enough to be in that tax bracket, however, the Flying Spur's blend of athleticism, comfort, and curb appeal can't be beaten.
What's New for 2024?
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.

Upgrading from the base Flying Spur to the more powerful Speed model is an easy choice if you ask us as it unlocks the 626-hp W-12 engine. Customers can choose from one of several curated themes, such as Cool Harmony, Storm Noir, or Alter Ego when ordering their Flying Spur, but we'd suggest going with a fully bespoke build to make it uniquely yours. A seemingly endless array of exterior colors and styling choices await you in the Bentley Mulliner customization program. The same goes for interior appointments, which can include several different types of wood, various types of leather, and polished metal accents.
