Bentley Emirates has launched the Bentley Flying Spur Speed W12 in the United Arab Emirates. It is the most driving-focused version of the Flying Spur luxury sedan line-up packed with cutting-edge technology. The Flying Spur Speed W12 is one of the last models from the brand to feature the legendary W12 engine, as the standard Flying Spur W12 ceased production back in May 2022.
Technical Specs of the Bentley Flying Spur Speed W12
The launch of the Speed W12 now provides more options for the Flying Spur line-up. The car sits above the S model and produces an extra 84 bhp and 130 Nm of torque over it. The Flying Spur Speed is powered by a 6.0-litre twin-turbocharged W12 engine that produces 626 bhp and 900 Nm of torque, paired with an eight-speed ZF dual-clutch transmission as the Continental GT. It accelerates from 0 to 100kmph in just 3.8 seconds and has a top speed of 333kmph.
The Flying Spur Speed's advanced features like active All-Wheel Drive, Electric All-Wheel Steering, and Bentley Dynamic Ride provide confidence-inspiring handling with an effortless and refined ride experience.
The standard Electronic All-Wheel Steering improves stability at high speeds and manoeuvrability at low speeds. At low speeds, the system steers the rear wheels in opposite direction to the front wheels, reducing the turning radius and enhancing agility. During high-speed manoeuvres, the system steers the rear wheels in the same direction as the front wheels, increasing stability for overtaking and lane changes.
While the Bentley Dynamic Ride System controlled by a 48-volt system, enhances both handling and ride comfort by adjusting the stiffness of the anti-roll bar to maintain a level posture during cornering.
Interior details of the Iconic Flying Spur Speed W12
On the inside, the four-door Grand Tourer features a 12.3-inch HD touchscreen infotainment system, a digital instrument cluster and a head-up display. The instrument cluster now gets new graphics inspired by luxury chronographs.
The front and rear seats of the Flying Spur Speed W12 come with standard comfort specifications, including 24-way adjustable front seats and 14-way adjustable rear seats. The cabin also features sports pedals and Speed fascia badges that add a touch of sportiness, while the illuminated Speed inner and outer treadplates enhance the overall look and feel of the grand tourer.
Exterior details of the Bentley Flying Spur W12 Speed
Although the Flying Spur Speed W12 comes with a familiar stance and styling cues, the luxury car looks smashing with the dark-tinted Speed exterior design elements. The front grilles, head and tail lamps are finished with a dark tint. It also features signature Speed badges on both sides on the lower wing.
The front bumper splitter, side skirts with metallic Bentley badges, rear diffuser and boot lid spoiler are handmade using high gloss carbon fibre. The Grand Tourer is fitted with 22-inch Speed edition alloy wheels as standard, with finishes including Dark Tint, Gloss Black and silver-painted.
The Flying Spur Speed W12 model is now available to buy for customers in the UAE.
