Bentley's first EV, the Torcal, arrives with up to 872bhp and a range of up to 375 miles, challenging the new Range Rover Electric. The Torcal's design is a blend of Bentley's traditional luxury and modern EV aesthetics, with a new light signature and sculpted body. Inside, the Torcal features a curved infotainment system, knurled Bentley knobs, and fine materials like Merino wool. The Torcal's powertrain and underpinnings are derived from the Porsche Cayenne Electric, offering rapid acceleration and high-speed capability. Bentley's Product Line Director, Martin Page, emphasises the Torcal's commitment to luxury, refinement, and performance.
