The exterior of the new Bentley sports quite a few changes including a sharp front splitter, elegant side skirts and a beautifully shaped rear diffuser which are finished to match the exterior paint color for the first time. It also comes with lowered chassis, stiffer suspensions and a dark tint finish has also been applied on the 21 inch alloy wheels. Joining it will be the luxury sedan Flying Spur that will also be offered with a 4.0 liter twin-turbo V8 apart from the W12 6.0 liter engine. Visually, the black grille will be the differentiating factor between the V8 and W12 powered Flying spurs.
