About this generation

The modern ultra-luxury performance sedan built on the MSB platform with all-wheel steering.

The third generation Flying Spur was introduced in 2019, built on the advanced modular MSB platform co-developed with Porsche. The architecture brought significant technological leaps, including rear-wheel steering, three-chamber adaptive air springs, and a 48-volt active anti-roll system. The powertrain lineup featured a 6.0-liter twin-turbo W12 producing 635 horsepower, a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 with 550 horsepower, and a plug-in hybrid V6 variant rated at 544 horsepower. In 2024, Bentley replaced the iconic W12 with the new Ultra Performance Hybrid V8 powertrain delivering an impressive 782 horsepower. Power is delivered via an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission and active all-wheel drive. Inside, the cabin showcases the pioneering Bentley Rotating Display, three-dimensional diamond leather upholstery, and top-tier connectivity features across global luxury markets.
