Retail sales for Jaguar Land Rover totalled 46,074 vehicles in July, up 3.6% on July 2016.

Retail sales in July were up 34% year‑on‑year in China reflecting the introduction of the long wheel base Jaguar XFL as well as strong sales of the Jaguar F‑PACE, Discovery Sport and Evoque. Retail sales were down in the UK (1%), Europe (6%), North America (3%) and Overseas markets (6%).

July has been another successful month for Jaguar Land Rover, particularly in China, where we reinforced our commitment to the market by opening our new engine plant in Changshu on 21 July.

Year on year, we have seen an increase in sales for Land Rover, led by continuing strong sales of the Discovery Sport and Range Rover. The new Range Rover Velar has already reached customers in the UK and Europe and we anticipate continued strength of sales as Velar continues to go on sale around the world.
