Bentley Racked Up Record Sales in 2021
In the world of ultra-luxury vehicles, we’ve seen time and again that automakers tending to the rich seem immune to problems that affect mere mortals. But now this alternate reality is all the more glaring. Pandemic? Microchip shortage? Recession? No need to worry - their models continue to sell at big prices.
And so it was that Bentley announced this week, after totaling up all the receipts, that it had its best year ever in terms of sales in 2021. In total, the luxury brand sold 14,659 vehicles over the past 12 months. That's a 31 percent increase over 2020, a year that itself had seen the brand set a new benchmark.
For the rest, the Continental GT accounted for 33 percent of Bentley's total sales in 2021, with 60 percent of buyers going for the coupe and 40 percent for the convertible.

Bentley expects this figure to climb in 2022 due to the availability of a hybrid powertrain.
