Bentley has given its Flying Spur a fresh face, more power and an even plusher cabin as it looks to keep its big luxury saloon right at the top of the four-door posh car pile.The latest Flying Spur is available to order now, with production due to begin at Bentley’s Crewe factory in September and first deliveries expected in most markets before the end of 2026. And while Bentley has not yet announced prices, this is still very much a car for those who consider a six-figure sum to be the starting point rather than the end of the conversation.The big news is the design. For the first time since 1962, a Bentley saloon gets single front headlights, bringing the Flying Spur into line with the latest Continental GT. It gives the car a cleaner, sharper front end, with the grille now sitting neatly within the front bumper and the previous wing vent detail removed to create smoother front wings.The back end of the new Bentley Flying Spur has also been revised, while there are new wheels and paint colours (Bentley)There are changes at the back, too, where the boot lid has been reshaped with cleaner surfaces, new rear lights and a body-coloured number plate surround. New 22-inch wheel finishes will also be available on Azure and S models, while Bentley has added a new Dark Teal paint colour, described as a metallic mid-blue with hints of green.The other big talking point is the return of the Flying Spur S. That badge is aimed at drivers who want their big Bentley to feel a bit more lively, and this new version is the most powerful Flying Spur S yet.Under the bonnet is Bentley’s High Performance Hybrid powertrain, producing 671bhp and 930Nm of torque. That is 128bhp more than the previous-generation Flying Spur S and enough to get this very large, very luxurious saloon from 0-60mph in 3.6 seconds. Keep going, where legally allowed, and Bentley says it will reach 191mph.To help it feel more like a proper driver’s car rather than just a very fast lounge, the Flying Spur S gets Bentley’s Performance Active Chassis. That includes Active All Wheel Drive, twin-valve dampers, torque vectoring, a 48V active anti-roll system and a new generation of stability control software. For the first time on a Flying Spur S, there is also an electronic limited-slip differential.Bentley has also given the S model a darker, moodier look. The Blackline Specification brings gloss black grilles, black Bentley badges and lettering, Beluga black mirror caps and sill extensions, plus dark-tinted LED matrix headlights. At the back, there are dark-tinted tail-lights and sports exhaust tailpipe finishers.Inside, the Flying Spur continues to lean heavily into Bentley’s handmade luxury story. Buyers can now choose from five different seat styles, with each requiring 12 hours of handcraftsmanship. The seats use either fluted or quilted inserts, with Bentley pitching the options as covering everything from comfort and wellness to a more performance-focused feel.For anyone who takes their in-car sound as seriously as their engine note, there is also a new Mulliner Virtuoso Collection. It brings the Naim for Mulliner audio system to the Flying Spur, after the system was originally created for Bentley’s coachbuilt Batur, where it cost £25,000 before taxes. The setup uses 21 speakers and technology derived from Focal’s Grand Utopia speakers, with Bentley promising its most immersive audio experience yet. The Bentley Flying Spur's interior has had a makeover, too, with five different seat styles, each requiring 12 hours of handcraftsmanship (Bentley)The Virtuoso Collection will be offered in three themes called Soprano, Tenor and Bass, ranging from light, calm interiors to darker and more dramatic designs. Champagne Gold detailing is used throughout, including on the winged badges, exhaust finishers, collection badges and even the edge of the key.The new Flying Spur arrives at an interesting time for Bentley. The Crewe firm has pushed back its plan to become electric-only until 2035, so cars like this V8 hybrid saloon will play a key role for the brand over the next few years.For now, the recipe is familiar but freshly polished: a huge amount of power, a huge amount of leather, plenty of handmade detail and just enough new tech to keep Bentley’s flagship four-door feeling up to date.
