Fresh details are emerging from Bentley about its first all-electric model, the Torcal. 

 

We only learned the newcomer’s name a few weeks ago, but now we can have our first proper look inside - and it appears that, despite having a pure-electric powertrain, the Torcal will retain Bentley’s traditional ethos. 

 

Since the 1920s Bentleys have featured diamond patterns, seen in everything from wire mesh grilles to diamond-stitched seats and even the Bentayga’s headlights. With the Torcal this design lives on thanks to a partnership with British glassblowers Cumbria Crystal – and on the SUV’s fascia you’ll find a floating diamond grille. There’s also a diamond pattern on the central control dial on the centre console, within which the start button is embedded.
