2025 Bentley Flying Spur Debuts Ultra Performance Hybrid Engine

With the 2025 model year fast approaching, Bentley has shown its refreshed Flying Spur. It will perform better because of its brand-new Ultra Performance Hybrid drivetrain. 

Among the visual modifications are the redesigned bumper intakes and a new grille pattern resembling honeycomb. What about the engine? The most recent plug-in hybrid powertrain from Bentley has a single electric motor and a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 that produces 771 horsepower and 738 lb-ft of torque.

These remarkable numbers indicate a rise of 145 horsepower and 74 lb-ft in comparison to the former most powerful version of the luxury sedan, the W12-powered Flying Spur Speed, which has since been discontinued.

With a full tank of gasoline and a fully charged battery, the 2025 Bentley Flying Spur will have a total range of more than 500 miles. This is the same as the Flying Spur Hybrid's 2022 launch, but with a far weaker plug-in hybrid V6 engine.

The total CO2 number is less than 40 g/km, and the range of EVs has almost quadrupled to more than 45 miles. Besides, according to Bentley, the exhaust tone has undergone a significant amount of development without the use of any artificial embellishment.
