Bentley Motors unveiled the world premiere of "Torcal," a city-oriented luxury SUV and the brand's first all-electric vehicle as well as its fourth model, in London, UK, on September 24, 2026. The entire process of designing, developing, and producing the Torcal takes place at Bentley's facility in Crewe, UK.

The lineup revealed includes two models: the standard "Torcal" and the sporty "Torcal S." With launch control activated, the Torcal S delivers a maximum output of 888 horsepower (PS) and peak torque of 137.7 kg.m, accelerating from a standstill to 100 km/h in just 2.9 seconds with a top speed reaching 260 km/h. The standard Torcal model offers a maximum output of 821 horsepower, peak torque of 121.7 kg.m, 0-100 km/h acceleration in 3.4 seconds, and a top speed of 250 km/h.

The Torcal is equipped with an 113 kWh battery pack operating at a rated voltage of 800V, utilizing lithium-ion technology. Based on WLTP standards, the vehicle can travel up to 600 km on a single charge. Using 400 kW ultra-fast charging, it can charge from 10% to 80% in just 16 minutes. A seven-minute charge provides approximately 161 km of driving range.

Chassis technology features Bentley's first fully active suspension and adaptive two-valve dampers, optimizing ride comfort and body control. Electronic all-wheel steering turns the rear wheels by up to 5 degrees, providing a turning radius of 11.1 meters. The braking system comes standard with iron brakes, while carbon silicon carbide (CSiC) ceramic brakes are available as an option. Standard wheel sizes are 21 inches for the base model and 22 inches for the Torcal S.

The interior incorporates new materials designed with sustainability in mind. It features 100% merino wool vehicle fabric developed in collaboration with Fox Brothers, along with "Ombre Walnut by Mulliner," which utilizes walnut offcuts. The trunk offers 460 liters of space, and the front storage compartment provides 90 liters. The vehicle is also equipped with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) based on 25 sensors and cameras, as well as a Naim 28-speaker audio system.
