Jaguar Land Rover, the UK's leading manufacturer of premium luxury vehicles today reported June retail sales of 39,602 vehicles, in line with the prior year. During the first half of the year, Jaguar Land Rover has sold 239,212 vehicles, equivalent to the same period last year.

Jaguar Land Rover's regional performance year‑to‑date shows 18% growth in the UK, 16% in Europe and 15% in North America, with Overseas down 11%. Sales in the China Region were down 27% year‑to‑date, due to softening market conditions and production ramping up for the locally produced Range Rover Evoque.

Commenting on the month, Andy Goss, Jaguar Land Rover Group Sales Operations Director said:  "Jaguar Land Rover has delivered solid growth in June. I am delighted to see our vehicles performing well, especially in the UK and Europe where sales reached almost 19,000 vehicles this month ‑ a record June for two of our key regions.

"Our investment in new products and technologies continues to give us a very strong and desirable range of vehicles, such as the all‑new Discovery Sport and the Jaguar XE. Customer deliveries of the XE began at the start of June and it has had an impressive first month of sales."

Land Rover delivered a solid performance in the month, selling 32,447 vehicles, up 1%. Calendar year‑to‑date sales reached 201,713 vehicles, up 3% year‑on‑year on the back of continued strong customer demand particularly for the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport.

Jaguar sales in the month of June retailed 7,155, down 6%. Calendar year‑to‑date sales were down 14% year‑on‑year, retailing 37,499 vehicles. This expected change in sales is largely due to the run out of the Jaguar XF model and the company's product launch plans, which will see the introduction of new 16MY XF and XJ vehicles from Autumn 2015.

The XE, Jaguar's most aerodynamic vehicle ever made, is now available in UK and European retailers and will soon be available in other markets overseas. Also on the horizon for Jaguar, the world premiere of the F‑PACE will be at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September and will go on sale from 2016.
