Frankfurt

ROLLS-Royce Motor Cars Ltd will decide this year whether to follow Bentley into the sport-utility market, as the ultra-luxury brand seeks to expand further after a five-year streak of sales records.

Rolls-Royce will unveil a new convertible planned for mid-2016 this year, and a final verdict on entering the SUV segment is set to be made as well, said Chief Executive Officer Torsten Mueller-Oetvoes.
