2014 has been a record breaking year for the British luxury marquee Bentley. The brand delivered a total of 11,020 cars, marking a nine per cent growth in sales as against 10,120 cars sold in 2013.
Bentley has revealed that the key regions of the Americas, China, Europe including the UK, and Middle East, all witnessed strong performance, with the US retaining its position as the brand’s number one market. China, meanwhile, has closed the gap as the second largest region for Bentley.
The brand had a fairly busy 2014 with new launches including the Continental GT V8 S, the GT Speed coupe/convertible and the Flying Spur V8. In 2015 Bentley will embark on a milestone year for the brand as it readies the much awaited luxury SUV we all have been waiting for.
Commenting on the results, Bentley’s Chairman and CEO, Wolfgang Dürheimer, said, “2014 marked an exceptional year for Bentley, as our record breaking pattern continued. We delivered more cars than ever before, and we now operate in more markets than at any point in our 96 year history, a perfect example of our truly international appeal.”
