Bentley Flying Spur, Rolls-Royce Wraith Teased in New Videos
Two British automakers specializing in fine, luxury automobiles are getting ready to debut new models at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show: the new Bentley Flying Spur and the Rolls-Royce Wraith.
The 2014 Flying Spur was previously teased with a sketch, but a video now reveals some of its finer details that will naturally feature the same styling that the British automaker’s Continental GT. Though we could expect to see some bolder changes, as new design chief Luc Donckerwolke is planning a more distinct look for the sedan. The new Flying Spur will sport Bentley’s 6.0-liter, twin-turbo W12 engine with around 567 hp, though a new turbocharged V8 variant could be in tow.

As for the Rolls-Royce Wraith, the new addition to that British automaker’s lineup will be the most powerful Rolls-Royce ever made. Essentially a coupe variant of the Rolls-Royce Ghost, it is rumored that the Wraith will have around 600 hp despite being powered by the same 6.6-liter, twin-turbo V12 found in the Ghost.
