The car dealership will end in 2021 in a series due to the corona crisis. Maar bij de luxemerken hebben ze daar little van noticed. Integendeel: ‘Once you can’t travel, you have to be in a Lamborghini.’
Heeft u nog what savings money? Ever thought of the Bugatti Chiron? before amps 3.2 million euros (excluding btw) is this car and “Twee Belgium lifted last year best list om zich zo’n car aan te create”, says Bernard Van Bellingen, the Belgian brand manager for het Italiaanse. For the delivery lifts: the Chiron has a top speed of 420 kilometers per hour, has a capacity of 1,500 pks and accelerates from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in 2.4 seconds.
The first car that was built is only one of the most luxurious cars that were sold in the past few years. “Ook met Lamborghini (price: from 250,000 to 700,000 euros, DT) In 2021 there will be a record year with 100 orders in Belgium”, next to Van Bellingen. “Van de Bentley (averaged 300,000 euros, DT) 140 copies will be sold in zelfs. Op all vlakken what het een recordjaar.”
With the notification of new vehicles in the service for the notification of Voertuigen (DIV) there is a number of accurate information about it. Lotus (+59 percent) and Lamborghini (+40 percent) went het meest op vooruit, McLaren (-67 percent) and Aston Martin (-27 percent) know dan weer een forse terugval. “Maar not all pre-cooked door Belgen, were also written in ons land”, says Van Bellingen uit. “Sommige klanten registeren hun wagen op een vennootschap in Luxembourg. Daarom citten he soms verillen op de cijfers.”
Internationally, there are also some luxe notices that some cars have to offer: Rolls-Royce sold 5,586 cars (+49 percent), Bentley 14,659 (+31 percent) and Lamborghini 8,405 (+13 percent). And then there were BMWs, Volkswagens and Peugeots from there were already sold for two years. It looks like a contradiction.
“It’s not that easy,” said Van Bellingen verder. “The mensen who dare zo’n dure will kopen, zijn nu eenmaal kapitaalkratig. Zij hebben dan also heel wat aandelen in handen, in the previous year was an excellent year (de S&P 500 sloot af met 27 percent winst, DT). Zo hadden zij veel money over. Ze konden niet op Reisen en dus ze dat money maar ergens differently aan donated.”
For the summer there is an investment. “Dat is fifty-fifty,” says van Bellingen. “You help me straight away. In plaats van een Picasso of a work of art other than investing, you put money in luxury cars. Zeker geen bad idea, as ever het mij vraagt. So is bijvoorbeeld de Lamborghini Aventador de laatste atmospheric V12, all al daarom is het a collectors item.” In addition, there are 42 cars in the garage that are owned by Bugatti. “Sommigen he lay then also geen little kilometers mee af”, Vlt Van Bellingen aan.
Long wait
The door that is marked on the order is for a vehicle that is used only as long as it is a year before it is delivered. Bij de luxewagens is the problem iets minder urgent – omdat ze minder wagens verkopen, raise zen nu eenmaal minder onderdelen nodig. Maar toch zijn he door het succes also vrij long wachttijden. “That varies between what is required and every year. Our customers raised that result over. Daartoe behoren vooral zakenmensen, maar also een aantal Rode Duivels (Toby Alderweireld and Romelu Lukaku rijden met a Bentley rond, DT). I can’t say anything about how het gaat, our customers say nothing about your privacy.”
Also, in the case of luxury, please note that the number of orders is as follows. So importeert de Belgian distributor D’Ieteren binnenkort de cultaamde Rimac Nevera with a prijskaartje van 2,1 miljoen euro. This is a fully electric luxury car with a capacity of 1,934 pk, which travels in 1.97 seconds from zero to one hundred kilometers per hour. The vergelijking: Max Verstappen does it with zijn Formule 1-wagen a half seconde long over. “We zien de toekomst rooskleurig in”, concludes Van Bellingen.
