With the Mulsanne ending production, the 2020 Bentley Flying Spur will take over as the UK automaker's flagship vehicle. The Flying Spur has some big wheels to fill but helping to elevate it to flagship status is a 6.0-liter twin-turbocharged W12 engine sending 626 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque out through an eight-speed dual-clutch. 0-60 mph takes just 3.7 seconds and that is when lugging around 5,373 pounds of curb weight.

Inside, the Flying Spur has the luxury appointments to live up to its flagship status. Bentley says more than 80 percent of buyers will opt for the Mulliner Driving Specification, which includes diamond-quilted seats, three-dimensional leather door panels, a full leather headliner, embroidered Bentley emblems, and more. The Flying Spur will also have some impressive features in the rear seat that will make it the perfect luxury limousine.

Bentley is highlighting some of the Flying Spur's rear-seat features, which are designed to help back seat passengers feel just as pampered as those in the front. In the center console, a multi-functional five-inch touchscreen remote allows occupants to control the seats, climate control, window blinds, and even the Flying B ornament. Those rear seats are heated and ventilated and come with available 14-way adjustment with five massage modes.

Buyers can also opt for the Rear Seat Entertainment package, which adds two removable 10.2-inch Android tablets with 4G, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth connections as well as Bentley's infotainment controls. For the best sound experience, the Flying Spur offers a Naim audio system with 2,200 watts, a 21-channel amplifier, and 19 speakers including Super Tweeters, two seat-mounted bass transducers, and illuminated speaker grilles.

For an additional luxury touch, a refrigerated bottle cooler can accommodate two full-size champagne bottles or any other drinks you may want to have at hand. And it isn't just tech and luxury features that make the back seat feel special, the material quality is overwhelming. Buyers can choose from fifteen different leather colors and eight veneers to create their own individual specifications. Stitching, emblems, and contrast piping add even more unique options to the mix.

"The interior of the Flying Spur is a striking combination of the very latest integrated technology, beautiful materials, and design prowess. It is progressive but retains a timeless quality that will still be stylish and appealing for decades to come" says Brett Boydell, Head of Interior Design for the Flying Spur.
