GoKawiilBentley unveils Torcal, its first electric SUV, with 375-mile range
Bentley has revealed the Torcal, its first all-electric model and fourth current model line, built on the Porsche Cayenne Electric's 800-volt PPE platform. The SUV comes in Core and S trims, both using a 113.2 kWh battery rated for up to 375 miles WLTP range (about 320 miles EPA) and 400 kW fast charging. The S trim produces 888 PS and 996 lb-ft of torque, reaching 60 mph in 2.8 seconds and a top speed of 162 mph, while the Core does 0-60 in 3.3 seconds.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The Torcal marks Bentley's entry into fully electric luxury SUVs, using Porsche's shared EV architecture rather than a bespoke platform, which could help control development costs as legacy automakers electrify low-volume luxury lineups. By tuning performance below the Cayenne Turbo Electric's output, Bentley appears to be positioning the Torcal around refinement and range rather than outright speed, a choice that may reflect how it wants to differentiate its EVs from sportier stablemates.
- Bentley's first EV, the Torcal, joins the Flying Spur, Continental GT/GTC, and Bentayga in its lineup.
- It shares Porsche Cayenne Electric's 800V PPE platform but offers less power, focusing on luxury over raw performance.
- The Torcal offers up to 375 miles WLTP range, 400 kW fast charging, and 0-60 mph times of 2.8-3.3 seconds depending on trim.
