Fuel injectors and spark plugs have been centralised within each combustion chamber to ensure optimal spray patterns and combustion paths, and the camshafts are variable by up to 50 degrees, with the ability to deactivate half of the cylinders when the engine is running at part load – turning it into a perfectly balanced V4. The Bentley 4.0-litre V8 engine is a thoroughly modern engine, with a block cast from high strength aluminium and with twin-scroll turbochargers and primary catalytic convertors positioned in the V of the engine. This unlikely combination has been achieved by using the latest engineering knowledge and technology. The V8-powered Flying Spur offers a characterful engine note, greater range between fuel stops and a reduction in CO2 emissions – while still offering breath-taking performance. The new Flying Spur V8 builds on Bentley’s more than 60-year tradition of using cross-plane V8 engines.
