Bentley unveils its first electric vehicle, the Torcal SUV, positioning it as the brand’s most affordable EV. Multiple outlets report the Torcal is priced at less than half the price of Ferrari’s planned electric model, the Luce.

The launch is presented as a strategy to broaden Bentley’s customer base. Both sources say the Torcal is aimed at younger buyers and first-time customers who have not previously purchased Bentley vehicles. The companies’ approach reflects an effort to make a luxury marque’s first EV more accessible, while still maintaining a premium positioning.

While the outlets align on the vehicle’s debut, pricing relationship versus Ferrari’s Luce, and the target audience, they frame the significance slightly differently. One outlet emphasizes the comparison in pricing as the headline figure, while the other focuses more directly on customer demographics—stressing the goal of attracting new entrants to the Bentley brand.
