Rolls-Royce has unveiled its first pure electric car, Spectre (Rolls-Royce/PA)
Luxury car sales at Rolls-Royce hit a record in 2022, according to numbers out today from the British marque’s German parent, BMW.
A sharp rise in demand for bespoke cars led by the Middle East helped take sales last year past 6,000 vehicles for the first time in the global brand’s history. The 8% year-on-year rise came on the twentieth anniversary of the start of full production at Rolls-Royce’s Goodwood assembly line near Chichester, which became home to the brand after it was sold by previous owner Vickers.
