Bentley paints a bleak picture for the rest of Britain’s car industry
Bentley Motors claims 2022 was the most successful yet biggest crisis year - providing bleak imagery for Britain's car industry.
By Craig Trudell
The year 2022 will go down as the most contradictory in the 103-year history of Bentley Motors.
As CEO Adrian Hallmark put it to reporters Wednesday, it's been the British carmaker's most successful year, and its biggest crisis year, all in one. He recounted brushes with disaster that Bentley's managed to sidestep on its way to record sales and profit. And he alluded to why other UK manufacturers won't be so fortunate, delivering a bleak assessment of damage done by Brexit and the future of the industry as it goes electric.
