2023 Bentley Flying Spur Speed review! The Flying Spur Speed has it all: performance, luxury, and a massive price tag to match. Unfortunately, this Flying Spur Speed is likely the last to use the glorious W12, one of my all-time favorite powertrains. Today I'm reviewing this Bentley Flying Spur Speed and I'll show you the many quirks and features. I'm also going to get behind the wheel and show you what it's like to drive.

The size of the Flying Spur hasn't changed significantly since its launch in 2006. However, more safety and luxury features have been added over the years, together with the introduction of the ZF 8 speed automatic transmission (in the first generation it was a 6 speed), which meant that the weight of the car increased, and as a result, more power was added to the engine. With more weight and more power you're going to need larger brakes to stop the car more effectively.
@cyjanek7818 Місяць тому
@@bryangillis1839EVs can brake VERY efficiently and quickly with electric motors, they won't need bigger brakes
@GT3Marine Місяць тому
Bigger brakes don’t necessarily have stronger clamping power to stop quicker. Brakes are bigger because they dissipate heat better than smaller brakes during repeated high speed braking. That’s why small sports cars like my GT3 have bigger brakes. Nothing to do with weight or the need to stop faster once. Just heat management during repetitive braking.

Yeah, the instrument cluster should absolutely be crafted in collaboration with someone like Rolex... The gauge dials should look like beautiful watch faces. It doesn't even have real leather seats either! For that price I'd demand leather. We aren't killing animals just for their hides (you know, they are made of meat after all), so to use "environmentally friendly" as a reason for fake leather is inexcusable in a car of that class. If anything leather IS green, why throw it away if it can be turned into a useable material.

We'll see about Bentley going fully electric in 2030 given the current status of the EV market. I know this video was likely recorded months in advance, but my point still stands. Although, I can see Bentley having an EV for the same reason Rolls Royce has one and that's because Bentley is also a high-end luxury brand. However, Bentley is also known for being Rolls Royce's more sporty competition in addition to being really luxurious. I also really love the spec of the Flying Spur you reviewed here. I'm a sucker for green cars with bronze/gold trim pieces. I would also have the same exact interior as this press car funnily enough. I think it's a very classy spec, while also being sporty at the same time. I'd buy this example in a heartbeat. xD

Hey, Doug. Love your channel. However, in this particular review it’s not entirely true that the massage function is only accessible through the infotainment system. Rather, it’s easily accessible on both driver and passenger seats. It’s a small round knob right below lumbar support knob on the front seats. Same knob is on the rear doors. You mentioned all of the buttons except these for some reason. Otherwise, your review is excellent as usual.

In a Bentley, Doug's diction changes: 14:55 "what you have is sufficient" instead of ...'enough' 6:35 ...'gauche' becomes 'cool' at 15:30 😁 By the way, that textured diamond pattern on the signal stalk at 13:33 and 14:11 is known as knurling. Good stuff though Doug, ol'chap 😏

Is the combined highway fuel economy over/under 8 mpg?

I will always appreciate automakers who retain the analogue ecosystem in the cars they produce. I am not a fan of everything being accessed through a single touchscreen interface. I like to see individual buttons that can be physically pressed and easy to access.

When manufacturers say the line will be all elecrified by 20xx do they mean all ev or just having an electric component ie. Hybrids?

It’s such a beautiful color too. I always said I will get a jaguar or a Bentley in British racing green
@TG_8 Місяць тому
I hardly consider British racing green to be flamboyant. It may not be what you typically see on a luxury sedan, but I think it looks great on this Bentley

So sad to see W12 go away. The W12 power train made them so unique. The only car that I can think of with a "W" engine that was "affordable" was the Volkswagen Phaeton with a W8. That interior looks so comfortable I'd be afraid I would fall asleep driving it!

The merging of two 4-cyclinders. I've only seen it once in a Passat. It was weak though @270hp. Nowadays VW gets 320hp from a single 4-cyclinder.

I wonder if Doug checked out the pass through from trunk to passager space. I would bet that there is a large pouch/sack connected to it which will protect the interior, but allowed the skis to go in. BMW X3 from 2007 had it, so Bentley from 2024 should too.

Saw a continental speed edition not too long ago. I thought a cool quirk was getting a model version of your car which I figured Doug would point out?

The Bentley this is one of the last of the Bentleys of this collection. The British green is absolutely just stunning and beautiful in real life in an amazing green Bentley. The speed bit me is one of a kind is gonna be collectors in time it’s timeless it’s elegant. It’s scrape. It’s just grab it while you can because these are knocking exist anymore. Especially these engine type is the last one of the year I believe correct but it’s amazing. Congratulations Bentley for something so beautiful exquisite executed the perfect color combination for exterior and exterior one of my favorites of all time of your business but all your Bentleys are my favorites. 👑💯

If it’s like Audi and Porsche, there’s likely a button in the middle of the lumbar adjustment that will activate the massage and bring up the screen to choose the program you want

Doug is so painfully detailed I might as well be driving the car with him

W12 is one of my all time favorite engines as well.
