Bentley Prepares 2027 Torcal EV SUV, Shares Platform with Porsche Cayenne

Bentley is set to launch its 2027 Torcal, an electric SUV that shares its platform with the electrified Porsche Cayenne. A pre‑production test revealed a smooth ride and a quiet powertrain, while the vehicle incorporates synthetic V8 engine sounds to preserve the brand’s traditional driving experience. The Torcal’s design emphasizes spaciousness and luxury, positioning Bentley to compete with other high‑end EVs such as Rolls‑Royce’s Spectre, Cadillac’s Celestiq, and Mercedes‑EQ’s Maybach‑tuned EQS. The model’s debut is scheduled for the end of September, marking Bentley’s first fully electric SUV offering.
