Both Rolls-Royce and Bentley set new sales records in 2022, with Bentley surpassing 15,000 cars in a year for the first time ever, and Rolls-Royce breaking the 6000-car mark, also for first time. In addition, Rolls-Royce revealed that the average price of each new car they sell has now topped €500,000.
This astonishing figure is driven by the rapid increase in the proportion of Rolls-Royces sold with bespokeseen a rise in bespoke commissions through their Mulliner personalisation programme, which have increased five-fold in the last five years. The company's biggest rises have been in the proportions of their cars to feature hybrid technology, which is proving particularly popular in the home market. For instance, hybrids now account for one in three Flying Spur sales, and that figure rises to two in three in the UK.
