British luxury marque Bentley has returned with a brand-new vision after a decade-long hiatus. The Bentley Torcal has officially broken cover, arriving as the first fruit of a massive £350 million investment into the brand's historic Crewe headquarters.

Earning the title of the marque's first-ever battery electric vehicle (BEV), this E-segment luxury SUV sets a new benchmark in the motoring world—not just with its striking aesthetics, but with tarmac-tearing performance.

Unadulterated Power and Mind-Boggling Performance: The Torcal S

Developed as the performance flagship, the Torcal S makes history as the most powerful production Bentley ever built.

  • Courtesy of a dual-motor setup, it churns out 876 bhp (888 PS / 653 kW) and a colossal 1,350 Nm of torque.
  • It obliterates the 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) sprint in a mere 2.9 seconds (0-60 mph in 2.8 seconds).
  • Even the standard Torcal puts down 810 bhp (820 PS), dealing with the 0-62 mph dash in just 3.4 seconds.

Class-Leading Charging and Range

Underpinned by an 800V architecture (Premium Platform Electric - PPE), the Torcal certainly won't leave you hanging about at the plug.

  • The SUV packs a substantial 113 kWh battery.
  • It promises up to 375 miles (600 km) of range on a single charge under WLTP testing.
  • Thanks to 400 kW DC rapid charging capability, the battery can be topped up from 10% to 80% in a brisk 16 minutes under optimal conditions.

Minimalist and Iconic Design Steeped in Bentley DNA

Despite measuring a hefty 5 metres in length, the Torcal retains a distinctly sporting stance. Up front, it commands attention with an illuminated 'floating diamond grille', painstakingly crafted using 76 individual hand-applied LEDs.

Inside the cabin, sweeping curved displays seamlessly meet Bentley’s traditional handcrafted veneers, sumptuous leathers, and sustainable Dinamica suede. Whilst it is a whisper-quiet EV, those yearning for the burble of a V8 are catered for by the Bentley Dynamic Symphony system—using real musical instruments to broadcast a bespoke acoustic signature both inside and outside the car.

Smart Tech and Digital Ownership

The Torcal marks Bentley's transition into an entirely connected vehicle ecosystem. With on-board Wi-Fi, remote park assist, automated exit from tight spots, and a memory function that allows the car to autonomously navigate into your garage, it proves that modern luxury is as much about everyday intelligence as it is about supreme material quality.
