Bentley launchs the car to compete with the Rolls-Royce Ghost
 

-Bentley (luxury branch of the VW Group) launchs the Flying Spur new generation, a sport limousine that competes directly with the Rolls-Royce Ghost (BMW Group). Unlike the coupe and convertible Continental, simply retouched during the past year, the Flying Spur limousine  has been  entirely  relifted. It remains equipped with the W12 engine (12 cylinders) and ranks as the fastest sedan in the history of the brand.

 

-Unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show, the Flying Spur definitively abandons the term "Continental" which appeared in its name.
The Bentley brand’s characteristic curves meet crisp, clean new edges in a remarkably sleek silhouette.
The side feature line runs along the car from the rear wheel arch in parallel with the low roof, down to its hand-fitted chrome front grille
It is 5.30 m long, i.e.
28 cm shorter than the Mulsanne (which competes with the Rolls-Royce Phantom).

 

-This Bentley runs  actually even faster than the Rolls-Royce Ghost V12 (320km / h against 250 km / h), which makes sense given the sporting past of the Bentley brand.
