DBX
Just as expected, these massive sales growth last year was helped by the high demand for the British and Italian brand’s first and fastselling Sport Utility Vehicles.
In its full-year trading update, Aston Martin said it sold 3,001 units of its DBX last year, taking an estimated 20% share of the luxury SUV market that also includes the Bentley Bentayga and Rolls-Royce Cullinan.
Cullinan
The success of the new hybrid option also ensured Bentayga remained Bentley’s number one model. Bentayga sold more in its fifth year of sales than ever before, establishing itself as one of the most successful luxury SUV in the world.
Lamborghini Urus
Just like the Bentayga and the DBX, the Cullinan also boosted Rolls-Royce sales last year, with the Rolls-Royce of SUV and Ghost each accounting for 40 per cent of the brands total sales in 2021.
This massive sales forced the Rolls-Royce to proclaim itself the ‘undisputed leader’ in the super-luxury segment for cars priced over £250,000 ($343,000).
Just like its rivals, Automobili Lamborghini also delivered a new record 8,405 cars to customers worldwide in 2021, up 13% compared to the same period in 2020; 5,021 of which were $210,000 Urus SUV.
