Sales in September reached 25,933 and it means Land Rover has sold 167,400 cars so far this year, a rise of 15.7% on last year. Once again emerging markets showed their appetite for Land Rover cars with sales for the month up by 105% in Russia and 249% in China. |

Mr Popham added, “We’re on track with plans to fit technology to improve the environmental performance of our cars and we've given a hint of new, exciting design. A great future is shaping up.” |
