Bentley has unveiled its first fully electric vehicle, the Torcal, after over a century of building grand tourers. CEO Frank-Steffen Walliser emphasized that the new car sets benchmarks in performance, comfort, craftsmanship, and soul. Measuring five meters in length, the Torcal promises a range of 483km and aims to attract a new customer segment.
