2015 Bentley Flying Spur W12

It is impossible to deny that the Bentley Flying Spur W12 is instantly recognizable. This luxurious vehicle offers the comfort of a limousine combined with the power you’ve come to expect from the top-of-the-line Bentley models. The only major change for the 2015 model year was the addition of the 4-liter V8 engine, but you can still opt for the traditional W12, getting the latest version of the luxurious sedan drivers everywhere love.

Exterior Design

When you visit us at Bentley Charlotte, along 6800 Independence Blvd., you can take the time to see the Bentley Flying Spur W12 in person. It is impossible not to admire this car’s beautiful exterior made of super-formed aluminum. Outside, you will find a set of 19-inch alloy wheels, LED taillights, and Bi-Xenon headlights that use an LED main beam function as support. No Flying Spur is complete without the exterior badges to let everyone know what you are driving, which is why you find the brand logo in black as well as W12 C pillar badges. If you would like an upgrade for your Flying Spur W12, you can throw in jewel caps for the oil and fuel filters, and you can, of course, select from a range of colors.

Power And Performance

Opting for the Bentley Flying Spur W12 automatically gives you the top-of-the-line engine choice, the 6-liter engine with twin turbochargers. Using this engine will let you get up to 60 mph in only 4.3 seconds due to the 590 pound-feet of torque and 616 horsepower. Expect to get about 15 mpg combined (12 mpg city and 20 mpg highway) with the 8-speed automatic transmission that comes standard. That may seem low, but the numbers are very good for a car that can reach 200 mph.

The other model of the Flying Spur is the new V8 engine. This 4-liter V8 engine is slightly less powerful but still truly impressive with 487 pound-feet of torque and 500 horsepower, giving it the ability to get from 0 to 60 in 4.9 seconds.

Safety Considerations

You won’t find safety ratings for the Flying Spur, as the NHTSA and IIHS don’t test high-end luxury vehicles. Despite this, you will get a range of standard features to ensure your safety and peace of mind, including airbags throughout, child seat anchors, stability control, traction control, emergency braking assist, a rearview camera, tire pressure monitoring, electronic brakeforce distribution, and more.

Interior Design

Most people wouldn’t expect the extreme power of the Bentley Flying Spur W12 to come with as much comfort as it does, but if you didn’t know better, you’d think you were traveling in a top-of-the-line limousine. Every single veneer and hide within the interior of the Flying Spur was painstakingly handcrafted by a special team of expert craftsmen. That means that each seam is individually sewn into the quality leather and each layer of the veneer was hand-polished and lacquered. Even the interior, including the leather, wood, and technology-holding architecture, is hand-fitted.

The interior of the Flying Spur was truly designed with comfort in mind, with 10-way power adjustable seats for the driver and passenger and a premium leather interior. Even the entertainment system is great, with a remote control system, AM/FM stereo, satellite radio, memory card slot, and 8 speakers. You also get Bluetooth, navigation including voice activation, and traffic information.
