Overview
- Bentley has announced the name Torcal for its first fully electric model and released a dark teaser image while a studio viewing was reported by press.
- Company materials and media report that Bentley claims the Torcal will offer about 480 kilometres of range, a figure that still needs independent WLTP and real‑world verification.
- CEO Frank Walliser is positioning the Torcal as a definitive Bentley focused on performance, comfort and hand‑crafted interiors and said the car could be the most thought‑through in the marque’s history.
- The Torcal is described as a large, opulent SUV with an illuminated grille and design cues that recall other ultra‑luxury models, and it is named after the El Torcal nature reserve in Andalusia.
- Bentley has revised its electrification plan to keep some combustion models for the near term, so the Torcal’s reveal and independent testing will be the next key moments to judge customer appetite and technical claims.
