Ahead of the Range Rover Velar arriving in showrooms, retail sales for Jaguar Land Rover reached 51,591 vehicles this month, up 11.0% on June 2016. Retail sales for the quarter totalled 137,463 vehicles, up 3.5% compared to the same quarter last year.

Retail sales for June were up year‑on‑year in China (65.3%), the UK (3.8%), Europe (3.7%) and North America (3.2%) whilst sales in Overseas markets were down 8.5%, due to challenging conditions in emerging markets such as Brazil, the Middle East and Russia.

Jaguar Land Rover saw another positive performance in June, led by strong sales in China, both from imported vehicles and our Chinese joint venture.

Jaguar sales were up 16.4% thanks to another strong month for F‑PACE and XF. This month has also seen solid sales of our flagship Range Rover and the Discovery Sport. July will mark the start of sales for the new Range Rover Velar, which was revealed in March.
