• A Residual Value award reflects value and customer demand for
Land Rover SUVs
• Range Rover Sport continues its run of top residual value awards
in the luxury midsize utility vehicle category
Toronto, ON, February 16, 2012 ‑ Jaguar Land Rover Canada is proud
to announce the company's latest achievement ‑ a Residual Value
Award from ALG, the industry benchmark for residual values and
depreciation data. The 2012 Range Rover Sport has been named the
"Best Luxury Midsize Utility Vehicle".
The Range Rover Sport models enter the 2012 model year with subtle
styling refinements, significant audio/infotainment technology
upgrades and additional amenities.
"It is a true honor to receive this accolade," comments Jaguar
Land Rover Canada President, Lindsay Duffield. "With all of our
Land Rover models, we are dedicated to providing customers with
value along with vehicles that combine top notch off‑road
capabilities and a strong sense of luxury".
The annual ALG Residual Value Awards recognize automakers'
outstanding achievements in producing new vehicles that are
predicted to retain the highest percentage of their original price
after a three‑year period for luxury vehicles. Awards are given in
19 vehicle categories and also for the two brands with the highest
overall predicted residual values among all mainstream and all
luxury vehicles. This year's awards are based on 2012 model year
vehicles.
"The Range Rover Sport represents an unrivaled blend of off‑road
capability, on‑road manners, and opulent trimmings," said Geoff
Helby, Canada Regional Director for ALG. "Equipped with its
full‑size sibling's impressive naturally‑aspirated and supercharged
V8 engines, the Sport takes home its third award in four
years."
Award winners are determined through careful study of the
competition in each segment, historical vehicle performance and
industry trends. Vehicle quality, production levels relative to
demand, and pricing and marketing strategies remain the key factors
that affect ALG's residual value forecasts.
