JAGUAR LAND ROVER REPORTS SOLID FEBRUARY SALES
Mumbai March 7, 2017: Jaguar Land Rover, the UK's leading manufacturer of premium luxury vehicles has achieved its best ever February sales performance in 2017, with total retail sales of 40,978 vehicles, up 9.3% on the prior year, primarily driven by continuing strong sales of the Jaguar F-PACE, XE, Land Rover Discovery Sport, Range Rover and Evoque with sales of the all new Land Rover Discovery now also under way.
By region, Jaguar Land Rover's global retail sales performance for February showed growth in China (40.4%), North America (16.2%) and the UK (14.2%) but down slightly in Europe (1.6%) and in other overseas markets (6.5%).
Jaguar retail sales were 12,203 vehicles, up 81.1%, compared to February 2016, driven by the ongoing success of the Jaguar F-PACE as well as solid sales of XE.
Land Rover retailed 28,775 vehicles in February 2017, down 6.4% compared to February 2016, primarily reflecting the run-out of the Land Rover Defender and Discovery which was only partially offset by the introduction of the all-new Land Rover Discovery and continuing solid sales of the Discovery Sport, Range Rover and Range Rover Evoque.
