Strong Growth Across Asia Observed By Rolls-Royce Motor Cars CEO

Following a visit to Rolls Royce's expanded showroom in Singapore, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars’ Chief Executive Torsten Müller-Ötvös flew to Manila to officiate at a ceremony marking the commencement of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars' business in the Philippines. According to Rolls-Royce, expansion into new and emerging markets forms a key part of the marque's sustainable growth plans. Confidence continues to grow in Japan, driving good year-to-date growth following expansion into Osaka and a recent move to a significantly larger, premium space in Tokyo. The effects of positive Japanese government economic measures will continue to be seen over the medium term, as the number of ultra high net worth individuals grows by 11%.

Rolls‑Royce Motor Cars reported strong third quarter and year-to-date growth in China. This is driven by sustained demand for Phantom and Ghost models and strong growth in the number of Chinese customers commissioning highly Bespoke Rolls-Royce motor cars.

Continuing success in existing markets and successfully executed entry into emerging territories forms a key part of our long-term sustainable growth plans,” said Torsten Müller-Ötvös, Chief Executive, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, speaking from Tokyo today. “Amid a backdrop of challenging market conditions for mass-luxury manufacturers, Rolls-Royce continues to observe good positive growth in China.
