2021 was an unprecedented year for Bentley Motors.
Bentley Motors must be celebrating because they’ve just announced their sales results for 2021 and they’re pretty incredible. Compared to 2020, Bentley saw an increase of 31 percent in sales; Bentley sold 14,659 vehicles in 2021 compared to 11,206 in 2020. The British automaker notes that this increase was helped by the introduction of new models like the hybrid variants.
