London: It seems that the crisis of living has not affected the results of the luxury car sector, as the British company “Rolls-Royce” recorded in 2022 the highest annual sales since its foundation 118 years ago, with the sale of 6021 vehicles of its brand .
And on Monday the brand of the German group “BMW” indicated in a statement that this figure represents an increase of 8% compared to 2021, with cars sold to “customers in around fifty countries”.
And the numbers of “Rolls-Royce”, which has sold most of its cars in the United States, China and Europe, contradict the numbers of the rest of the companies in the auto market that are struggling to recover from the pandemic and face a shortage global semiconductor.
And the British Association of Motor Manufacturers and Traders SMMT reported on Thursday that UK new car sales fell significantly in 2022, to their lowest level in 30 years, despite a recovery that began at the end of the year.

Like other luxury brands like Bentley and Bugatti, Rolls-Royce set records in 2021.
Another example of the boom in the luxury car sector is Lamborghini’s announcement in August that it has pre-sold all of its production until early 2024.
Rolls-Royce, founded in the early 20th century and acquired by BMW in 1998, is set to launch the Specter, its first all-electric car, this year. According to the brand, “pre-orders for this vehicle have exceeded all expectations.”
The first batch of “Spectre” is expected to be delivered to customers in the last quarter of 2023. “Rolls-Royce” aspires to become a brand that produces electric cars only until the end of 2030.
