The new Flying Spur becomes the most efficient Bentley ever having the capability to cover over 700 km when fully fuelled. The E-motor is powered by a 14.1 kWh lithium ion battery and can be charged to 100 per cent in as little as two and a half hours.
The combined powertrain propels the Flying Spur Hybrid from 0-60 mph in under 4.5 seconds and on to a top speed of 177 mph, which gives little away to the Flying Spur V8 in acceleration. The authentic Bentley character of effortless, refined performance is maintained, whilst the new powertrain achieves a significant reduction in fuel consumption.
Inside the cabin, the automatic Start-Stop switch has been replaced with a control for the three E Modes – EV Drive, Hybrid Mode and Hold Mode, enabling the driver to manage the battery usage during a journey. EV Drive mode is engaged as soon as the car is switched on, and maximizes the electric driving experience, whilst additional information is available via the instrument panel, heads up display and center screen, including range, battery level and charging information. This is ideal for city driving and for shorter journeys.
