Above mentioned that in 2002, Bentley launched the State Limousine for the 50th anniversary of the throne of the Queen of England. The car was upgraded based on Bentley Arnage. Only 2 units were produced at that time. It was this second Elegant 728 luxury extended sedan that opened the door to the Chinese market. At the Beijing Auto Show at the 2002, as the only left-handed Bentley extra-length sedan in the world at that time, it immediately made Chinese consumers recognize and remember this super luxury brand from Britain at a sky-high price of 8.88 million yuan.
In 2021, Bentley's global sales reached 14,659 units, of which 4,033 units were sold in the Chinese market, ranking first largest single market in the world. Moreover, the average age of car owners in China is only 39 years old, and the trend of younger generation is obvious. Perhaps some of these car owners have planted the seeds of becoming Bentley owners' dreams because of Bentley's stunning debut in 2002. Currently, Bentley is transforming to electrification and is expected to launch its first pure electric model within three years. So how will Bentley touch the young people in the new track? Let us look forward to it together.
