Rolls-Royce has the Spectre , Cadillac's Celestiq is taking bespoke to a whole new level, and Mercedes has given the EQS the full Maybach treatment . From Volkswagen Auto Group, Bentley is just about to debut its 2027 Torcal, a spacious SUV that shares a platform with the electrified Porsche Cayenne.
