2020 Bentley Flying Spur Deliveries Kick Off In Europe And UK

Bentley has begun customer deliveries for its 2020 Flying Spur to owners across Europe and the UK, with Eastern, North American and Asian buyers scheduled to receive their cars later this year.

In the UK and the rest of Europe, prices start from £168,300 and €180,400 respectively, while U.S. customers will pay north of $214,600 for a car Bentley expects will make up around 20% of its global sales in 2020.

“We have completely reinvented the Flying Spur with a more emotional design, broader dynamic capability, world-leading interior style and innovative technology. The new Flying Spur is the definitive luxury performance sedan and the new Bentley flagship, and we’re excited for our customers to start taking deliveries of what we truly believe to be an extraordinary car,” said Bentley’s member of the board for sales and marketing, Chris Craft.

According to Bentley, more than 80% of Flying Spur customers select the Mulliner Driving spec, which includes Mulliner designed 22-inch wheels, lofted diamond quilting for the seats, three-dimensional leather door panels, a full leather headliner, embroidered Bentley emblems and Bentley’s Jewel oil and fuel filler caps.

Meanwhile, 60% of customers are opting for the Flying Spur First Edition, featuring First Edition exterior and interior badging (inspired by the Union flag), plus many optional extras made standard, such as the new electrically-deployed Flying B mascot, the Bentley Rotating Display, Touring Spec and mood lighting.

Powering the 2020 Flying Spur is Bentley’s 6.0-liter twin-turbocharged W12 engine, working alongside a dual-clutch 8-speed gearbox. Thanks to this combo, the Flying Spur can hit 60 mph (96 km/h) from a standstill in 3.7 seconds, before maxing out at 207 mph (333 km/h).
