“The model that can be enjoyed in any situation, whether for daily use or performance,” says Christian Schlick, Director of Bentley Seoul. This statement was made during the unveiling of the fourth-generation Flying Spur at the Bentley Tower on the 11th.
The fourth-generation Flying Spur Speed was announced globally at 8:30 PM on the 10th, Korean time, and was unveiled in Korea on the 11th. This underscores how significant the Korean market is for Bentley, a fact that is evident in the numbers.
As of last year, Korea ranks third in the Flying Spur’s sales following China and the United States. Christian Schlick noted, “When compared to the population figures for the sales in the U.S. and China, Korea has achieved greater results.” Since entering the Korean market in 2005, Bentley has surpassed 2,000 cumulative sales as of last year. Korea has become a market that Bentley cannot afford to overlook.
With a total system output of 782 horsepower, the Flying Spur Speed demonstrates extreme performance. Christian Schlick praised the model, stating, “It is a car that genuinely embodies both luxury and performance of the Flying Spur,” expressing his deep affection for the Flying Spur Speed as “the most suitable car for Bentley customers who enjoy the ultimate speed.”
Additionally, Christian mentioned the company’s SUV, the Bentayga, noting that “we are attracting various customers by introducing different short-wheelbase and long-wheelbase derivatives” and emphasized that “Bentley is the perfect car in any situation.”
