Overview
The 2016 Bentley Flying Spur sedan is a fullsize sedan offered in 2 trims, starting off at a base MSRP of $201,000. For that price, it mainly competes with the Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II Sedan, the Porsche Panamera Turbo Executive Sedan, and the Mercedes-Benz Maybach which has the lowest price tag among the bunch. Between 2 trims, the Flying Spur offers 2 powertrains. The base engine is a 4.0L Twin-Turbo V8 capable of making 500 horsepower and 487 lb-ft of torque. If more power is required, there is also a 616 horsepower-making 6.0L Twin-Turbo W12 engine. Both engines are mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. The Flying Spur reaches 60 mph from zero in 4.9 seconds on its base engine, which gets pumped up to 4.2 seconds with the 6.0L Twin-Turbo W12 engine. Depending on the powertrain, the Flying Spur can manage a combined fuel economy between 15 and 17 mpg. While we're on the topic of choices, the 131 striking colors the Flying Spur comes in really pull you towards itself.
