AMID MUCH FANFARE AND ANTICIPATION, Braman Bentley of Palm Beach welcomed the
2020 Bentley Flying Spur onto its sophisticated showroom floor. The new flagship model
was hailed as a game changer, and now that several clients have taken delivery, the car’s true
character can finally be fully appreciated. The speculation is over: Bentley has undoubtedly
delivered on their promise to produce a vehicle that represents the ultimate marriage of
power and refinement.

It all starts with the brand-new “Flying B” hood ornament. Far from an afterthought, such an
emblem has never before been bestowed on a Bentley, and can be optioned to include crystal
inlays which illuminate at night. It also will automatically shoot back into the hood should any
passerby attempt to take it home as a keepsake.

As recently as ten years ago, the thought of leaving a Bentley dealer in a 626-horsepower
luxury sedan capable of surpassing 200 mph was unfathomable. However, times change
rapidly—perhaps not nearly as rapidly as the new Flying Spur, however. Though larger than
some midsized SUVs, it manages to charge to highway speeds in around four seconds, and
easily maneuvers through tight parking lots with the aid of rear-wheel steering.
