According to experts, the demand for such cars in Russia increased by 1/3 year-on-year and by 17% compared to January. Bentley models accounted for more than 40% of the luxury foreign cars sold last month.

This trend is due to the shortage of new cars in the premium segment and the attractiveness of such cars as investments.

Analysts predict that the stable ruble exchange rate and the possibility of reducing the key rate of the Central Bank will continue to support high demand in this segment.
