Bentley Torcal and Torcal S: power, range, battery and charging specifications
Bentley has fully revealed the electric Torcal and Torcal S. The flagship delivers 888 PS and 1,350 Nm, reaches 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds and offers up to 600 km WLTP.
888 PS, 1,350 Nm and 2.9 seconds to 100 km/h — Bentley’s first series-production electric car has immediately become the brand’s most powerful and quickest-accelerating production model. At its world premiere in London, Bentley fully revealed the Torcal, which forms a fourth standalone model line alongside the Continental GT, Flying Spur and Bentayga.
The final specifications are higher than the figures previously announced for the Torcal. The standard version develops 821 PS and 1,155 Nm, reaches 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds and is limited to 250 km/h. The Torcal S produces 888 PS and 1,350 Nm, cutting the sprint to 2.9 seconds and raising top speed to 260 km/h.
According to Bentley, the two electric motors draw power from an 800-volt battery with 113.2 kWh of usable capacity. Claimed range reaches 600 km on the WLTP cycle, while peak DC charging power is 400 kW. Around 161 km of calculated range can be added in seven minutes.
Bentley’s own figures for rapid charging are not perfectly consistent. The official specification table lists 10–80% in 16 minutes, while launch materials refer to a time of “less than 20 minutes”. Until the technical data are fully harmonised, it is safer to use the sub-20-minute wording rather than treat 16 minutes as an unconditional figure.
The Torcal is the first Bentley with a fully active suspension: each damper can be controlled independently, so conventional anti-roll bars are no longer required. The rear wheels steer by up to five degrees, reducing the turning circle to about 11.1 metres. Despite a length of around five metres, it offers a 460-litre boot and a further 90-litre front compartment.
In moving to electric power, Bentley has not replaced all physical controls with screens. The familiar idea of four cabin ambience modes is joined by an unusual drivetrain soundtrack recorded with real drums, viola and bass guitar, using the rhythm of the classic 6.75-litre V8 only as a foundation rather than electronically copying the engine.
Bentley has not announced a price in its official launch materials. The next key details will be market-specific price lists and delivery dates.
