The Bentley Torcal launches with a First Edition model that helps set the tone for Crewe’s new electric SUV. It gets the most powerful powertrain in the lineup, exclusive styling details, and a more generous list of standard equipment than any version that follows.

Under the hood, the First Edition delivers 876 horsepower and 996 pound-feet of torque, enough to get from 0 to 62 miles per hour in just 2.9 seconds and reach a top speed of 162. When less powerful versions arrive later, this launch model will effectively fill the role traditionally held by a Speed or Mulliner variant in Bentley’s lineup.

Making A Statement Without Going Overboard

As mentioned, the First Edition gets the most powerful powertrain planned for the Torcal, with 876 hp and 996 lb-ft of torque. Bentley says that’s enough to propel the electric SUV from 0 to 62 mph in 2.9 seconds, with a top speed of 162 mph. That puts it in the same conversation as some of the fastest Bentleys on sale today, though the electric powertrain delivers its performance in a very different way.

The First Edition also stands out with its own set of 22-inch wheels, finished in gloss black with Liquid Silver spokes. Bentley’s self-leveling badges stay perfectly centered as the wheels turn, while Graphene Grey brake calipers from Mulliner add a subtle contrast against the bodywork.

The Carbon Fiber Styling Specification rounds out the exterior upgrades, adding carbon fiber to the front bumper blades, mirror caps, side sills, and rear diffuser. A First Edition badge on the front fender makes it clear this is the launch model, rather than one of the versions arriving later.

What You Get Inside

Inside, the First Edition gets exclusive seat quilting and chevron inserts, along with illuminated door sills bearing the series logo. The Colour Specification offers plenty of room for personalization, including two color combinations curated by Mulliner, eight accent colors, and the option to add a third interior color. It’s a level of customization that brings the Torcal closer to models like the Bentayga.

Leather upholstery with contrast stitching is available at no extra cost, paired with standard Gloss Carbon Fibre trim that ties the cabin to the exterior styling. Other interior finishes are also available without an additional charge.

Standard equipment includes deep-pile floor mats, Wellness front seats, and the Rear Comfort Seat Specification. The latter adds ventilation and comfort headrests for the two outer rear seats.

The First Edition also introduces two new features to the Torcal: power-opening front and rear doors and a Frosted Diamond Switchable roof. Rounding out the package is a 1,780-watt Naim for Bentley sound system with 28 speakers, seat transducers, speakers built into the front headrests, and Dolby Atmos 7.1.4 support.
