Bentley has introduced a new flagship for the Flying Spur range, the W12 S. With 626 horsepower and 605 lb-ft of torque, the W12 S is the first four-door Bentley to reach a top speed higher than 200 miles per hour. Carbon ceramic brakes are, of course, optional, and since it weighs as much as a Bentley does you may want them. The W12 S features a new “engine-spin” finish, and there are W12 S emblems in the headrests and on the sill plates.

Described as the “ultimate luxury performance sedan” by Wolfgang Durheimer, the Flying Spur W12 S has 635hp and 605lb ft from the trusty old W12 engine.
Though no official release date or price has been announces, deliveries will begin at the end of the year.
Marking out the Flying Spur flagship are a black radiator grille, black light surrounds, a rear diffuser (on a Bentley!) and new “W12 S” badges.
The new calibration also targets the active suspension, with the Brits promising to deliver the same magic carpet ride while the slightly more aggressive damping rates improve handling.
The auto sits on 21in seven-spoke wheels with a new gloss-black finish, or optional 21in five-spoke directional wheels finished in either gloss black or a dark tint.
“The wheels offered on the Flying Spur W12 S are 21″ 7-spoke with a new gloss-black finish, or a new optional 21” Sports 5-spoke directional wheel finished in either gloss black or a dark tint.
The Flying Spur W12 S isn’t just about the numbers, however.
The interior also focuses on a sporting aesthetic, providing a wider color palette and unique stitching.
An innovative Touch Screen Remote, deployed from the veneered rear centre console at the touch of a button, allows control of the car’s climate and infotainment systems from the comfort of the rear seat.

To show off its sinister new power plant, Bentley’s decked the W12 S out with all manner of blacked-out styling bits.
