Bentley Flying Spur S Hybrid
Auto Express
|February 22, 2023
FIRST DRIVE How well does hybrid limo blend efficiency and luxury? We drive it in the UK to find out
BENTLEY is taking a step-by-step approach towards electrification, with the Flying Spur saloon the latest to get the plug-in hybrid treatment, and we've driven it in the UK for the first time.
Electrification suits a Bentley. You get the balance of swift, silent electric progress (for up to 25.5 miles on a full charge) with V6 petrol and electric power combined when you want a bit of performance.
In fact, it's more than just a bit of performance, given that 536bhp will get the Flying Spur from 0-60mph in just 4.1 seconds, only 0.1 seconds behind the V8.
As for economy, the Hybrid delivers a claimed 85.6mpg versus 22.2mpg for the V8. In the real world the savings will be less marked (we managed more than 30mpg), but the temptation of substantial company car tax savings will sway business buyers.

Wreckreation
IF you love noughties classics such as Burnout, Need for Speed and Micro Machines, then Wreckreation is the game for you. We're certainly fans of good old-fashioned driving games. Too many have become realistic simulators that require expert skills, which at times foregoes the fun of gaming.

Tesla Model Y Standard
SOME people say EV pioneer Tesla is faltering. Sales figures are declining worldwide and it appears interest in the brand is waning. The reasons for this may be many, but it can’t be down to the cars themselves — especially since the Americans have proven with the Model Y facelift that they aren't resting on their laurels.
