Bentley's recently unveiled Torcal produces 888 PS and 1,350 Nm of torque, with a 0-60 mph time of under 3 seconds. But outright performance isn't the only thing designed to grab attention, the luxury automaker has given the SUV another eye-catching feature that comes alive after sunset- an illuminated diamond grille.An Instagram video making the rounds online shows the Torcal cruising through Beverly Hills, California, at night, giving a clear look at its illuminated grille. The design moves beyond the long-running trend of slim, extended DRLs and instead creates a jewel-like effect, like a cluster of illuminated diamonds up close.From a distance, the Torcal looks unlike anything else seen on the road in quite some time. The glowing diamond pattern is strikingly bright, perhaps just a shade dimmer than the headlights, and is likely to make passersby take a second look as they try to figure out what is approaching. Such trends can catch on quickly, and you never know if other auto manufacturers could follow suit.The video posted to Instagram by Noah Cristiano was first reported by The Supercar Blog, and has since received nearly 100,000 views in a few days. While many praised the lit grille design, a few criticized the design.Bentley took the cover off the Torcal on September 23, 2026. The brand's Crewe-based design team, led by Design Director Robin Page, has shaped the vehicle around a low-slung, sleek SUV profile while retaining the brand's familiar design cues. The team's approach is built around how people naturally take in a vehicle, with its design interpreted through four visual "reads."The first is its proportions, with a long wheelbase, short overhangs, and an upright front giving the Torcal a commanding stance. Bentley's "endless bonnet" theme further accentuates its length and presence, while the second "read" focuses on the graphics that establish its identity. This is where the illuminated diamond grille comes into play, drawing inspiration from iconic models such as the Continental T and combining Bentley's heritage with modern lighting technology.Image credit: BentleyThe third "read" concerns the SUV's sculpted surfaces and how they interact with light as the vehicle moves. Bentley has kept unnecessary lines to a minimum, allowing the Torcal's volumes and proportions to do most of the visual work.The fourth "read" focuses on the finer details, which become more apparent up close. Bentley carries the diamond motif throughout the Torcal, using it in both obvious and subtle ways across its surfaces, textures, and patterns.It may not be all about looks, either. A grille this bright is hard to miss, which could make the Torcal easier for other drivers to spot after dark, though that's just speculation on our part.
