Rolls-Royce Motor Cars (RYCEY) CEO Chris Brownridge joins Wealth! host Brad Smith and Senior Autos Reporter Pras Subramanian to discuss the luxury car market outlook for 2025. The company recently reported its third-highest annual deliveries, with over 5,000 units sold in 2024.

"2024 was a really successful year for Rolls-Royce," Brownridge tells Yahoo Finance, noting increased demand for bespoke motor cars with personalized features. "Looking ahead into 2025, I think the conditions will be quite similar," he adds, expressing confidence in "a strong year" ahead.

Brownridge emphasizes the company's focus on client experience: "Our clients tell us the luxury is actually engaging with us and being part of Rolls-Royce as well as having their wonderful masterpiece in their motor car," he explains.
