The All-New Bentley Torcal Makes Global Debut, Opening a New Electric Era
Bentley has officially unveiled the all-new Torcal, a landmark model that introduces an entirely new chapter for the British luxury marque. The Torcal is Bentley’s first all-new model line in a decade and its first fully electric production vehicle, combining the company’s traditional craftsmanship with a new generation of EV performance and digital technology.
For readers following the latest luxury and performance car launches on Carbook Magazine, the Torcal is particularly significant because it expands Bentley’s modern portfolio alongside the Continental GT, Flying Spur and Bentayga. The Torcal name is inspired by El Torcal de Antequera in Andalusia, Spain, a dramatic landscape of limestone formations that Bentley says reflects the strength and character of its newest model.
Powerful All-Electric Performance
Underneath its luxury-focused design, the standard Torcal uses two electric motors producing 821 PS (604 kW / 809 bhp) and 1,155 Nm of torque. Bentley quotes a 0–100 km/h time of just 3.4 seconds and a maximum speed of 250 km/h.
The battery has a capacity of 113.2 kWh, while Bentley quotes a maximum driving range of up to 600 km. At a suitable high-power charging station, more than 350 km of range can be added in around 10 minutes, while a 10–80% DC charge can take approximately 16 minutes.
These figures place the Torcal firmly within the rapidly developing premium EV market and represent a major step in Bentley’s electrification strategy.
A New Bentley Design Language
The Torcal also debuts a cleaner and more minimalist Bentley design direction. One of its most distinctive details is the new Floating Diamond Grille, incorporating 76 individually applied illuminated diamonds. Its muscular rear design takes inspiration from the historic “Blue Train” Bentley, connecting the company’s heritage with its new electric identity.
Inside, Bentley combines traditional craftsmanship with modern technology. A vertically curved 12.25-inch OLED touchscreen dominates the dashboard, complemented by handcrafted veneers and Bentley’s new Dynamic Waterfall Lighting system featuring more than 450 LEDs. Front occupants also benefit from 16-way electrically adjustable seats with heating, ventilation and massage functions.
An optional Naim for Bentley audio system takes the experience further with 28 speakers and 1,780 watts, alongside Dolby Atmos technology.
A Major New Chapter for Bentley
The Torcal is more than another luxury SUV. It represents Bentley’s transition into full electrification while retaining the performance, craftsmanship and personalisation for which the marque is known.
With rapid acceleration, a 600-km claimed range, sophisticated charging technology and an entirely new design language, the Bentley Torcal gives luxury-car buyers an early look at how the Crewe-based manufacturer intends to approach the electric era.
