Bentley Motors debuted two of the newest members of the Flying Spur family in China at the Guangzhou Auto Show last November 19. According to the British luxury carmaker, the Flying Spur is a hugely successful and important car in the Chinese market and Bentley saw strong demand for the nameplate after the pandemic after an increased sales figure of around 200 percent since last year.
On display were the Flying Spur Mulliner and the Flying Spur Hybrid. The former showcases the pinnacle of the Flying Spur family while the latter shows the promise of the nameplate's future.
The Flying Spur Mulliner features a “Double Diamond” front grille with a chrome front lower grille, bespoke Mulliner branded wing vents, and Satin Silver painted mirror caps. The family’s most luxurious model rides on exclusive Mulliner 22-inch wheels, in a gray painted and polished finish, with self-leveling wheel caps that remain upright as the wheels rotate.
Owners will be welcomed by Mulliner illuminated outer treadplates and deep-pile overmats. The cabin, which can be had in a bespoke curation of eight custom-made three-color combinations, is complemented by accent color piping and unique Mulliner embroidery to the hand-stitched seats.
The Flying Spur Hybrid, on the other hand, puts on display a new power plant that combines a 2.9-liter V6 petrol engine with an advanced electric motor. This powertrain setup allows the Flying Spur Hybrid to put out 536 horses and 750Nm of torque.
The Flying Spur Hybrid becomes the most efficient Bentley ever, having the capability to cover over 700 km when fully fuelled.
In addition, the hybrid Flying Spur comes with a suite of intelligent and intuitive equipment tailored to the driver and passengers such as My Battery Charge, My Car Statistics, and My Cabin Comfort.
Bentley’s five-car display at Guangzhou Auto show reflects the strong product offering that has enabled record sales to continue throughout 2021.
