    Pros & Cons

    Pros:

    The Bentley Flying Spur PHEV pairs a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 with an electric motor, producing up to ~574 kW and 1,000 N·m (Speed/Mulliner), delivering very strong acceleration for a full-size luxury sedan.
    As a plug-in hybrid powertrain with COâ‚‚ around 33 g/km, it offers significant company-car tax advantages compared with traditional petrol models in many markets.
    With a ~25.9 kWh battery and up to ~80 km of EV range, the Bentley Flying Spur PHEV supports meaningful zero-emission urban driving when regularly charged.
    Reviewers frequently note that, for its size and weight, the chassis, all-wheel drive, and four-wheel steering give composed handling and convincing dynamic balance.
    Traditional Bentley materials, detailed leatherwork, and thoughtful trim create a premium interior environment often praised in expert reviews.
    Adaptive suspension and noise-reducing features such as acoustic glass contribute to a smooth, serene ride appreciated by reviewers.
    Reviewers note the Bentley Flying Spur PHEV succeeds at being both enjoyable to drive and comfortable to be driven in — a duality uncommon in ultra-luxury plug-in hybrid sedans.

    Cons:

    The Bentley Flying Spur PHEV is expensive to buy across all trims, and servicing, insurance, and ownership costs remain high compared to mainstream hybrids.
    The battery under the floor reduces luggage capacity compared with non-hybrid Flying Spur versions, a frequent point of feedback in forums and reviews.
    Although sufficient for daily commuting, the EV range of the Bentley Flying Spur PHEV is modest compared to some plug-in hybrid rivals.
    Some owners note that the steering feedback and braking feel can be inconsistent or less engaging than expected, especially compared with pure petrol-powered counterparts.
    While better than pure petrol models, hybrid efficiency isn’t as superior as dedicated EVs or lighter plug-in models from other luxury brands.
