Popularity of the Range Rover Evoque has helped Land Rover gain significant market share in the personal leasing market this year, according to the latest figures from Leasing.com.
Land Rover has received more personal leasing inquiries via Leasing.com than Audi so far this year, leaping into fourth place in the Leasing.com Manufacturer League Table for the year to date (January to October 2019), behind the German manufacturing trio of Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen and BMW.
This represents a significant shift from 2018, when Land Rover finished the year as the sixth most popular manufacturer.
The updated Range Rover Evoque is currently the second most popular car to lease so far this year, just behind the Mercedes-Benz A-Class.
Paul Harrison, Head of Strategic Partnerships at Leasing.com, said: “Aspirational consumers favour leasing because it often provides them with access to more premium vehicles than they could afford if they were funding them on PCP, HP or other alternatives.
