2020 Bentley Flying Spur Overview!

Pros!

✔ First-year of the redesigned third-generation Flying Spur
✔ More power from W12 engine
✔ New chassis should deliver handling improvements
✔ More luxury and technology features

Cons,
None.

The 2020 Bentley Flying Spur represents the beginning of the third Flying Spur generation and a full ground-up redesign of Bentley’s big sedan. The Flying Spur is essentially a four-door version of the recently redesigned Continental GT, so many improvements from the newest Continental GT carry over to the Flying Spur, including a new platform and more power from the twin-turbo W12.

The 6.0-liter twin-turbocharged 12-cylinder engine now makes 626 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque — an increase of 59 lb-ft over the previous range-topping W12 S model. Bentley says the extra boost under the hood is good for a 3.7-second sprint to 60 mph, which is considerably quicker than the previous model’s 4.2-second estimate. This hard-charging Luxo-barge can accelerate up to 207 mph.

Other under-the-skin enhancements include a three-chamber dynamic air suspension, active anti-roll bars, and increased use of aluminum and high-strength steel that combine to create a stiffer chassis, which should be more engaging than the previous model. An eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and four-wheel steering (for executing tighter turns in parking lots) are also new for 2020.

Improvements cabin. Upfront, occupants ensconced in the heated, ventilated and massaging seats enjoy a 12.3-inch touchscreen loaded with the latest Audi-derived infotainment system. If staring at a dashboard dominated by a touchscreen isn’t your style, the screen rotates on a horizontal axis to reveal a panel with three inset analog dials. Or you can select the third fascia, which simply consists of the wood veneer used throughout the rest of the cabin.

The biggest rival the Flying Spur faces is Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II.

Price Range!
Starts around $230,000

2020 Rolls Royce Ghost Overview!

Pros!
✔ Power is plentiful from the massive V12 engine
✔ A silent cabin and smooth ride make for impressive comfort
✔ Interior materials and craftsmanship are impeccable
✔ Ability to customize to your heart’s content

Cons
*Trunk isn’t as large as rivals.

The 2020 Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II is a five-passenger luxury sedan offered in standard-wheelbase Ghost (SWB) or Ghost Extended Wheelbase (EWB) versions. The EWB adds almost 7 inches between front and rear wheels for more rear passenger space. Both models are powered by a twin-turbocharged 6.6-liter V12 (563 horsepower and 605 lb-ft of torque). Power is sent to the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission that uses satellite data to help determine gear selection.

There’s a list of copious standard features, such as adaptive LED headlights, a panoramic sunroof, an air suspension and power-closing rear doors. Inside you’ll find full leather upholstery on seats, door and instrument panels, and center console, plus massaging front seats, Wi-Fi, a navigation system and a 10.3-inch display, among many other niceties.

The EWB Ghost ratchets up the luxury level with massaging rear seats and upgraded infotainment features. There’s also a special Black Badge sub trim that opts for a sinister black treatment inside and out (even the Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament gets the dark chrome treatment). The Black Badge also enhances performance with special steering and suspension tuning, and power is increased to 603 hp and 620 lb-ft of torque.

There are several option packages, such as the Rolls-Royce Signature package to further outfit the Ghost with decadent features such as lambswool floormats and a Starlight LED-infused headliner. As with other Rolls-Royce vehicles, the Ghost can be personalized in seemingly endless ways. Even the buttons are made of glass instead of plastic.
