Bentley electric Torcal launch and design updates

Overview

On 12 September 2026, Bentley officially unveiled the Torcal, identifying it as the company’s most powerful production vehicle to date. The electric grand tourer delivers 653 kW of system power and maintains the capability to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in under three seconds.

Built on the Volkswagen Group’s Premium Platform Electric (PPE), the Torcal features a 113-kWh battery designed to provide a range of over 600 kilometers according to WLTP standards. While previous technical clarifications suggested charging speeds of up to 390 kW, the unveiled specifications confirm support for high-speed DC charging of up to 400 kW, which can charge the battery from 10% to 80% in less than 20 minutes under ideal conditions.

Despite a weight of approximately 2,700 kg, Bentley has engineered the vehicle to prioritize luxury and effortless grand touring through the use of air suspension and active anti-roll stabilization to manage its mass and ensure a refined driving experience.
