April also saw the Jaguar F-PACE win World Car of the Year.

Jaguar had a record April, retailing 12,310 vehicles, up 54.0% compared to the same month in the previous year led by continuing strong sales of the F-PACE, XE and the long wheel base XFL from the China joint venture. Further, retail sales for Land Rover in April were 28,075 vehicles, down 15.8% on April last year, primarily reflecting the run-out of the Discovery and softer sales of other models, which were only partially offset by sales of the all-new Discovery and solid sales of Range Rover.
