Bentley Motors today announced the launch of a limited edition new Bentley Flying Spur Hybrid. Known as the Bentley Flying Spur Hybrid Odyssey Edition, the company promises to pay more attention to the sustainability of the materials used to achieve its goal of exceeding 100 sustainability and electrification plans.
This Flying Spur Hybrid Launched earlier this month, making it the second electric car in the company’s product line after Bentayga Hybrid. The company drew inspiration from the EXP 100 GT concept car, making it the first mainstream model to incorporate Bentley’s perspective on the future of luxury mobility. The inspiration also came from the S1 Flying Spur in 1955.
In order to complement the 21-inch 10-double-spoke wheels and the light-colored Brodgar decorations on the lower bright parts, Bentley offers a selection of six exterior colors. A complete Bentley palette is also provided.

Like a standard Flying Spur Hybrid, the car is powered by a 2.9-liter V6 engine and electric motor. Those provide 536 brake horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque.
Close to Flying Spur V8 and improved Flying Spur Hybrid, Odyssean can accelerate from zero to 60 mph in 4.1 seconds. The new powertrain significantly reduces fuel consumption. After being fully refueled, the car has a cruising range of more than 435 miles.
The interior is more sustainable, using refined tweed made of 100% British wool. The open-hole Koa veneer applied on the fascia and waistline uses 90% less paint than the high-gloss veneer. The veneer is only coated with three layers of ultra-thin paint, and the thickness is only 0.1 mm.
A new embroidered style is used on the seats, blending with each other across the width of each seat, defining the “lofted diamond” pattern. The deep pile pad can be upgraded to a lamb wool rug. In addition to new materials, the entire interior also uses sustainable leather with a three-color scheme. The center console is decorated with a minimalist piano linen finish.
Bentley has equipped Odyssean with the connected car services equipped with Flying Spur Hybrid, including “My Battery Charge”, “My Cabin Comfort” and “My Car Statistics”.
The price of the limited edition Odyssey has not yet been announced. The basic price of Flying Spur is $180,000. The luxury car manufacturer currently accepts orders in most markets. The production line is manufactured at Bentley’s carbon neutral headquarters in Crewe, England.
