Naming things is hard. Especially when that thing is a product you have to try and sell to people. Naming a car is particularly difficult, as the name has to appeal to a broad range of worldwide customers who speak different languages, and it should at least somewhat represent the vibe or intention of that model. Sometimes trying to strike the right balance results in a really fantastic name, but other times a car name ends up incongruous or just plain weird. To avoid that, many cars are named after actual places or landmarks around the world.

We Finally Know What Name Bentley Will Call Its First Electric Model, and It Sounds Weird

  • Bentley has announced a new model called the Torcal that will be revealed on September 23.
