Range Rover rolls out another option in luxury cars

KARACHI: After Mercedes Benz and BMW, Range Rover has also increased its presence in the Pakistani market by introducing a new vehicle amid the increasing demand of luxury cars.

Sigma Motors CEO Col (Retd) Syed Zafar Uddin Ahmad briefed diplomats and businessmen – guests and potential clients – at the unveiling event on Tuesday about the technology being used and other features of the compact yet luxury SUV.

Evoque is a fuel efficient vehicle that gives more than 13 kilometres per litre, said Ahmad. The average consumption claimed is much less than the latest Honda Civic.

The UK-manufactured Evoque is priced at Rs9.2 million, Ahmed said, adding that the small and sporty vehicle is designed for all types of roads – mountains, desert and other rough terrain roads.

The Range Rover Evoque has the latest generation parking assist system which can park the car in a very short space, just 1.2 times the length of the car.

Sigma Motors, Ahmed said, is the only one to successfully assemble vehicles based on European technology and introduce the same in the automobile sector in Pakistan. Sigma Motors Limited is the supplier of Land Rover and Range Rover vehicles in the country.

The company started local assembly of Land Rover Defender variants in 2002 and as of today a total of 12 variants are being assembled in Pakistan.

Speaking to the media earlier on, British Deputy High Commissioner and Director for UK Trade and Investment for Pakistan, Francis Campbell said the Land Rover product facility in Pakistan speaks volumes about the relationship between the UK and Pakistan.

“The launch of Evoque is part of our commitment with the Pakistani government to build on the bilateral trade relationship between the two countries,” Campbell said. “Investments such as this will contribute towards our goal of increasing trade between our two countries every year to £2.5 billion by 2015,” he added.

“Range Rover Evoque is a quantum leap in the evolution of Range Rover and we are very excited to bring it to Pakistan,” he said.

“With ventures like this, we hope not only to meet this target but even exceed it,” Ahmad added.

I request Pakistanis not to buy this car.
The profits from the sales will be used by India to buy weapons only to be targeted at Pakistan. This is BJP-Shiv Sena-RSS at work to destroy pakistan.

Exactly.

No point in Range Rovers! Build smaller, more durable cars that the middle class can actually afford. Where are people going to drive Range Rovers? In the small streets of Pinds?

Tata, Owner Of Jaguar, Land Rover Names Next CEO | AutoGuide.com News

BBC NEWS | Business | Tata buys Jaguar in £1.15bn deal

Seems to me that you are just a little hurt that Pakistani elite will be driving a car owned by an Indian

 

[skydrill_2]

yes just like chrysler was a German company or Diamler was a US Company

range rover has its sole production and r&d facilities for asia in india......and it is making profits only after tata ownership....for example you buy a honda car and say that the car is mine but simultaneously you also say the car belongs to honda.....similarly rover belongs to both british and TATA.....

 

[russellpeters]

i dont understand this. if the whole sales network is owned by an Indian company, if the patents and rights belong to an Indian company, and so on and so forth the profits also to that company, and significant portion of the manufacturing (atleast in your case) is done in India (Pune, to be precise), what makes the company un-Indian ?

if you cannot point out that sorry you have no case.

any MNC, in the true sense of the word is Multi-National. Thus, only ownership and rights can be the criteria for Indian-ness , Chinese-ness or American-ness.
For all I know, MNCs have operations distributed over dozens of countries and thus they cannot be inherently Indian, American or Chinese etc.

Furthermore I must remind you that the company was acquired if that is hard to understand. Acquistion refers to complete ownership. The TATA group is still HQed in Mumbai, India.

One of my favourite car "Evoque", man its an awesome car..
XUV500, looks a bit bit like evoque..

No man it's not even close to evoque.
evoque is a class in itself.
But XUV500 is also a good beast
