Lexis sales over take Jaguar's in Europe

Have those Continentals no taste? :) On a more serious note, it shows that whilst LandRover has been turned around, it's still very much a work in progress for Jaguar despite great reviews of its cars anbd the brand's popularity in the UK

Quote:

Just Auto Data issued by Brussels-based ACEA earlier on 18 November shows combined YtD sales across 30 European markets of 24,456 Jaguar cars and 24,679 Lexus cars and crossovers. The market itself expanded by 6.2 percent in October, with Jaguar's 14 percent improvement (YoY) outpaced by Lexus' 40% surge. The relevant sales numbers were 1,918 and 3,262 units respectively.

Other interesting snippets:

• Chevrolet collapsed to just 597 cars sold versus 12,037 in October 2013. (Brand being withdrawn, who could take those dealerships?)


• Jeep: +74% to 4,345 cars.


• Volvo up by 13%.


• Mazda was +25% and now outsells Suzuki 13,969.


• Honda's collapse continued, sales down by 3.4% last month to just 9,609. Honda Motor Europe was outsold by JLR and Mitsubishi Motors Europe.


• Dacia was up by 24.5% and is now ahead of Kia for the year to date (307,759 Vs 302,781)
