Bentley sold 4,221 vehicles in the Americas, making it the brand's most important region. Sales increased less than 1%, but Bentley sold more vehicles than any other region.

The auto industry in 2022 has a lot of unpredictability, but Bentley's business is doing well, setting a sales record for the third consecutive year. Bentley chairman and chief executive Adrian Hallmark said, "This underscores the strength of our brand, operational excellence, and strong global demand by market and model."

Bentley has 241 retailers in 65 countries, and sales increased in every market last year. Sales increased by 23% in Asia Pacific compared to 2021, 11% in Europe, 12% in the UK, and 6% in the Middle East. Bentley has a plan called "Beyond100," which it hopes will be fully electrified by 2030.
