Hi, waiting for an allocation for a Cayenne Turbo EV, wondering if anyone has cross shopped with the new Bentley Torcal? If so, is the Torcal worth the extra money? Asking as my local Bentley dealer can get me an allocation of either the base or S pretty much immediately.

How much more is the Torcal? I think it looks great. I'm sure the options add up, but no, I have not shopped it.

Compared to a fully loaded Turbo, about $25k more USD. So a jump but not an immense one. I also wouldn't be forced to have a passenger screen as they don't offer them and the interior is much nicer in the Torcal.

This really depends on what kind of driving style you want in your SUV. If you want luxury and better comfort but can still push down the throttle to get immense acceleration, I'd get the Torcal. The Porsche is still the car that has the motorsport DNA and can deliver really nice driving experiences. However, it is subjective to say how much you actually will use that "DNA" in your daily driving.

I don't consider that to be in the same price range then. Comparing a "fully loaded" Cayenne Turbo seems unrealistic, and just artificially moves the price higher towards the Torcal. Nobody needs to fully load a Turbo, anyway.


EDIT:

Looking at the prices in the U.S., according to Google AI, the Cayenne Turbo starts at $163,000, and the Bentley base model starts at $218,000.

So no. Not even close to being the same.

My current Turbo build is sitting at $192,500 and that is without Porsche Active Ride and about $28k in options. The price delta is still there, but much of what I am adding as options on the Cayenne are standard on the Torcal. Still not sure that it is worth it, but realistically the difference is smaller when you compare apples to apples than base price to base price.
