Powered by a 500-horsepower, twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 that drives the rear wheels via a ZF 8-speed automatic transmission, the Beluga Specification Bentley also features a new Wi-Fi hotspot, one of several new tech upgrades that will be found on all 2016 Flying Spurs. Dealers are now taking orders for this newest member of the Flying Spur family. The Beluga Specification adds $4,000 to the base price of the 2016 Bentley Flying Spur V8 which will open at $204,725 including destination and gas guzzler fees. Opting for the Mulliner Driving Specification upgrade raises that figure by $19,985.
