SEOUL: Bentley Motors has unveiled the all-new Torcal in Seoul, marking the first Asian appearance of a bold new expression of Bentley luxury.
The marque’s first fully electric model combines effortless performance of up to 888PS and 1,350Nm of torque with a driving range of up to 603km and the ability to charge from 10 to 80 per cent in just 16 minutes.
Introducing a new design language and Bentley’s first fully active suspension, the Torcal will be offered in two distinct expressions: the core model and the more sporting Torcal S.
Bentley Motors chairman and chief executive Dr Frank-Steffen Walliser said, "Our new Torcal sets extraordinary benchmarks in every area that matters.”
The Asia debut also coincides with 20 years of Bentley Motors Korea’s direct presence in South Korea.
Bentley Asia Pacific regional director Dave Hayter added, “South Korea has played an important role in Bentley’s story for two decades, with clients who share our passion for innovation, craftsmanship and extraordinary performance. It is therefore fitting that Seoul should host the Asia debut of Torcal."
Orders for the new Torcal will open in South Korea on 15 October 2026, with recommended retail prices, inclusive of tax, starting from 330 million won (RM1mil) for the Torcal and 360 million won (RM1.092mil) for the Torcal S.
First deliveries are expected from late 2027.
The car features a pair of powerful permanent magnet synchronous motors.
Both are dry sump designs and filled with oil for life.
While the front motor has an open differential, the rear motor has a locking differential with a multi-plate clutch on each output shaft.
The high voltage battery consists of 192 lithium-ion pouch cells in series, running at 800V nominal, with a total net capacity of 113kWh.
The battery is covered by a 160,000 mile (257,495km), 10-year warranty.
Fully active suspension – for the first time on a Bentley – and adaptive two valve dampers deliver a true ‘magic carpet’ ride, while allowing a choice of chassis tune for each driving mode.
