Bentley announces details of the new limited edition celebrating the launch of the Flying Spur Hybrid. The Flying Spur Hybrid Odyssean Edition is inspired by the EXP 100 GT concept car, which describes Bentley's vision of luxury mobility in 2035.
High quality materials in the interior
A special Odyssean Edition running board catches the eye as you enter and exit the car. The interior features panels made of tweed, which is made from 100 percent British wool.
Open-pore koa veneers are finished with 90 percent less varnish in a way that preserves the wood's natural surface texture. Along with the new materials, much sustainable leather is used throughout the interior.
On the exterior, painted accents on the 21-inch double-spoke wheels, on the bumpers, and on the headlights and taillights provide a calm character. Six colors are available for the exterior.
Exclusively plug-in hybrids by 2026
The Flying Spur Hybrid Odyssean Edition features a hybrid powertrain with a system output of 544 hp and a combined maximum torque of 750 Nm. By 2026, the British company wants to offer exclusively plug-in hybrids and battery-electric models.
The new powertrain combines a 2.9-liter V6 gasoline engine with an electric motor. This enables the Flying Spur to accelerate from a standstill to 100 km/h in 4.3 seconds.
