Highlights Rolls-Royce sold 6,021 cars globally in 2022. This is the first time that the company's annual sales has crossed 6,000 units. The USA remained the company's largest market, followed by China. Uber-luxury car marque, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, has released its sales number for the 2022 calendar year. Between January and December 2022, the British brand registered 6,021 units in sales, the highest-ever annual sales. In fact, this is the first time in the company's 118-year history that its sales have exceeded 6,000 in a single 12-month period. Compared to the 5,586 vehicles sold in 2021, Rolls-Royce witnessed an annual growth of 8 per cent year-on-year. Commenting on the company's performance, Torsten Müller-Ötvös, Chief Executive Officer, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars said, “2022 has been a momentous year for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. Not only did we reveal Rolls Royce Spectre, our marque’s first ever fully electric series model to the world, it was also the first year we ever delivered more than 6,000 cars in a single 12-month period, with strong demand across our entire product portfolio. But as a true House of Luxury, sales are not our sole measure of success: we are not and never will be a volume manufacturer. Bespoke IS Rolls-Royce, and commissions were also at record levels last year, with our clients’ requests becoming ever more imaginative and technically demanding – a challenge we enthusiastically embrace.”
