And at the same time, it somewhat cannibalized the Land Rover model market, although their positioning is different.<\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-US\">By not continuing production of <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">the Evoque and Velar<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">, <a href=\"https:\/\/newmobility.news\/en\/2026\/07\/23\/range-rover-adds-all-electric-gt-as-fifth-model-in-luxury-line-up\/\">Range Rover\u00a0<\/a>will make<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">\u00a0the GT its entry model.<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"> It will be <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">built on JLR\u2019s \u2018electric first\u2019 Electrified Modular Architecture (EMA).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Although the final pricing for the Range Rover GT has not been announced yet, it is clear that it will be priced closer to the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport, both of which are available as EVs and with combustion engines.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-197292\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/RR_GT_FRONT-3-4.jpg?resize=640%2C360&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-US\">This means the Range Rover brand will be more upscale again, leaving room for Land Rover models such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/newmobility.news\/en\/2026\/10\/09\/chinese-built-freelander-heads-for-europe-with-smaller-battery\/\">electric Freelander<\/a>. <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">JLR is also looking to diversify the Defender range, with a \u2018baby Defender\u2019 on the group\u2019s EMA platform reportedly being in the works.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The new marketing strategy would position Discovery as the practical, family-oriented brand, Defender as the more rugged off-road brand, and Range Rover as the luxury brand.<\/p>\n<p>But this comes with the risk of losing part of the current clientele. An Evoque customer doesn\u2019t necessarily fit into the two more affordable brands. And a Velar buyer won\u2019t necessarily want to increase his budget to switch to a Range Rover GT.<\/p>\n<p>In Belgium, prices for the Evoque start just below 50,000 euros, while the most affordable Velar will set you back \u20ac 71.790. Speculations about the Range Rover GT\u2019s pricing tend to hover around the \u20ac100,000 entry point.<\/p>\n<h4><b>Lower volume, higher margins<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>The strategy for Range Rover sounds a bit like the one JLR already applied to Jaguar, albeit less extreme. Jaguar halted its production completely, with all existing models being terminated. The focus is now on relaunching the brand with a luxury positioning, with the electric GT <a href=\"https:\/\/newmobility.news\/en\/2026\/10\/07\/jaguar-type-01-and-now-for-something-completely-different\/\">Type 01<\/a> as the first model.<\/p>\n<p>The Range Rover brand is not getting an equally extreme reset, but it is saying goodbye to a not insignificant volume. Although sales of the Evoque and, to a greater extent, the Velar have declined, they still account for a significant share of the brand\u2019s sales, especially in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>In 2025, Range Rover sold 22,802 units of the Evoque in Europe, and 7,961 of the Velar. The combined volume of 30,800 cars accounts for about 30% of the Land Rover Group\u2019s total sales of 106,873 in Europe. The Range Rover Sport found 26,030 European customers in 2025, and the Range Rover found 11,678.<\/p>\n<p>It remains to be seen whether the volume of the soon-to-be-launched Range Rover GT and the possibly higher margins on the model justify the decision to scrap the Evoque and Velar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When their current generation ends, the Range Rover Evoque and Velar will not be replaced.
