Jaguar Land Rover sold 46,418 vehicles in October, up 0.2% year on year. Solid sales of all models, including the new Range Rover Velar and the Jaguar F-PACE, continue to bring new customers to the brand each month.

China continues to perform well with sales up 12%, while overseas markets were up 16% compared to the same period in 2016. But difficult market conditions have led to retail sales being down 18% in the UK, and 3% down in Europe and the US.

It's pleasing to see our global sales have been maintained year on year in October, despite facing increasingly challenging conditions in our key UK, US and European markets.

Jaguar Land Rover Group Sales Operations Director

Jaguar retail sales were 12,336 vehicles in October, down 14% on 2016. Land Rover retailed 34,082 vehicles in October, up 7% compared to October of last year, driven by continued success of recently introduced models.
