The 2020 Bentley Flying Spur has been revealed to the world and the configurator has gone live, and you can build your own.

The magnificent Flying Spur is built around Bentley’s twin-turbo 6,0-litre W12 engine with a whopping 467 kW of power and 900 Nm of torque. This takes the limousine from 0-100 km/h in just 3,8 seconds whilst the top speed is 333 km/h.

The cabin gets more room thanks to an extra 130 mm between axles. The overall dimensions are 5 316 mm in length, 1 978 mm in width and 1 484 mm in height, with the wheelbase measuring at 3 194 mm. The Flying Spur won’t just be wider but Bentley is billing it as the most advanced luxury Grand Touring sedan available today, offering a host of cutting-edge technologies thanks to its totally new and advanced aluminium and composite chassis and 48V electronic architecture.

A host of new Driver Assistance Systems are fitted to the new Flying Spur as standard, including Traffic Assist, City Assist and Blind Spot Warning.
