Sales of Ghost models at Rolls-Royce AGMC increase by 36% buoyed by Ghost Series II

Dubai, 10 August 2015: Rolls-Royce Motor Cars AGMC, the sole authorised dealership for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars in Dubai, Sharjah and the Northern Emirates, has announced that sales of the ultra-luxury brand rose 7% in the first half of the year, with particular focus on the Ghost model which increased by 36% following the launch of Ghost Series II late last year.

Considered an oasis of calm in a busy connected world, Ghost Series II is a thoroughly contemporary expression of Rolls-Royce luxury: approachable, dynamic but uncompromised in materials and craftsmanship, it represents the ultimate expression of attainment for successful entrepreneurs around the world.

"Since the launch of the Ghost Series II last year, the popularity of this remarkable vehicle has continued to increase amongst our clientele. A car that showcases effortless superiority and peerless driving dynamics, Ghost is the world's pinnacle business limousine that provides an engaging and effortless driving experience," commented Mamdouh Khairallah, General Manager, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars AGMC.

AGMC also announced strong sales for the Rolls-Royce Wraith - the ultimate gran turismo, with a 624hp engine, standing out as a homage to the era of effortless spacious coupes and grand tourers.

"Rolls-Royce Motor Cars AGMC has achieved great results this year so far, and with our unique selection of ultra-luxury vehicles and unparalleled level of service, we are confident that this success will continue throughout the second half of 2015 and beyond," added Khairallah.

The ongoing success of the Rolls-Royce Ghost, and the arrival of Wraith 'Inspired by Film' and AGMC's upcoming Bespoke editions, has primed Rolls-Royce Motor Cars AGMC for a strong end to the year, further strengthening its presence in the region and on the marque's global network.
