Bentley Residences Miami hosted the Florida debut of the 2027 Bentley Torcal on October 23, 2026, bringing the automaker’s first fully electric production vehicle to its Sunny Isles Beach sales gallery. The private event paired the car presentation with a tour of the development’s model residence, including a four-car garage that illustrates the project’s signature approach to integrating parking into the home.
Key takeaways
The presentation connected Bentley’s automotive launch with the planned residential tower’s private-garage design and electric-vehicle infrastructure.
- The Torcal was introduced to Florida guests at the oceanfront sales gallery.
- Guests toured a model residence featuring a four-car garage.
- Bentley Residences Miami is planned to include 216 homes across 62 stories.
- Completion is scheduled for 2028, according to the project announcement.
A Florida showcase for Bentley’s electric vehicle
The event brought together Gil Dezer, president of Dezer Development, and Mike Rocco, president and CEO of Bentley Motors, Inc., Americas Region. The Torcal is described by the project as Bentley’s first fully electric production vehicle and its first entirely new model line in a decade.
Rather than mark a construction milestone, the October gathering focused on the relationship between the carmaker’s design identity and the residential project. The model-residence tour gave attendees a look at how the development plans to accommodate car ownership within individual homes.
Private garages built into the tower concept
Bentley Residences Miami is planned to use the patented Dezervator automobile elevator system to carry residents and their vehicles to private in-home sky garages. Developed in partnership with Otis Elevator Company, the system is a central feature of the tower’s design.
The garages are planned to support electric-vehicle charging. Additional fast-charging stations are also planned at the base of the tower for electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids. The four-car garage in the model residence offered a full-scale example of how vehicle storage is incorporated into the floor plan.
Project plans and timeline
Dezer Development is developing the tower in collaboration with Bentley Motors. Plans call for 216 residences in a 62-story, 716-foot building, with private terraces, Atlantic Ocean views and private swimming pools. Interiors are intended to reflect Bentley’s design and craftsmanship.
The project’s October announcement listed completion as scheduled for 2028. Earlier construction coverage reported that the tower had passed level seven in June 2026; the Torcal event itself did not announce a new building milestone.
