2023 Bentley Flying Spur Exterior and Dimensions

The new Flying Spur is a fine example of an imposing car that somehow manages to be charming. The large slatted grille lets slowpokes know that something large and in charge is coming up from the rear, but if they don't notice that, you can always rely on the LED headlights. The V8 variant gets a black gloss matrix grille with chrome surrounds and bright Bentley wing badges, while the W12 features bright vertical vanes with a black matrix-style grille and black 'B' badging. 21-inch ten-spoke alloys fill the W12's arches, but the V8 comes with 20-inch ten-spoke alloys. The W12 has two large oval exhausts at the rear, while the V8 gets quad pipes. Ordering the Blackline Specification blacks out all chrome exterior elements with gloss-black ones.

The Mulliner editions run on 22-inch alloys with a self-leveling 'B' center badge. They also feature a unique double-diamond grille design and wing vents and the 'Flying B' Bentley hood ornament is illuminated. The Flying Spur S gets a more aggressive exterior with gloss-back trim, matching 21-inch wheels, and red brake calipers, while Azure specification trims ride on 22-inch wheels.

In terms of dimensions, the Flying Spur's figures are impressive. With an overall length of 209.3 inches, and a wheelbase of 125.7 inches, there's bound to be oodles of space inside. It's 58.4 inches tall and has a maximum width of 79.3 inches, excluding mirrors.

As you'd expect, all models are hefty beasts. According to Bentley, the V8 model weighs 5,137 pounds, while the W12 tips the scales at 5,373 lbs. Hybrid models exceed 5,500 lbs. It's improbable you'll ever end up with a car that weighs precisely that, though, considering the number of customization options available.
