Evoque a year old, and thriving

As demand for the Range Rover Evoque, the Continental Irish Executive/Luxury Car of the Year 2012 continues   around the world, Jaguar/Land Rover are celebrating one year of production.

Twelve months ago, when the first vehicle rolled off the production line, the Evoque had already generated an exceptional market response with more than 18,000 advance orders from customers worldwide. Today  demand for the Evoque has driven sales of almost 80,000 units in just nine months.

With more than 110 global awards, the Evoque has gained critical acclaim from customers and media alike.

Crowned Top Gear Magazine Car of the Year, World Design Car of the Year and North American Truck of the Year amongst others, the Evoque continues to receive plaudits for its concept car looks, dynamic driving performance, class leading off-road skills and excellent cost of ownership. 

In just three years the company's workforce in Halewood, has trebled and the plant now employs more than 4,000 people.
