Evoque and Velar to retire as £90k GT becomes entry Range Rover
Why are they doing this? Range Rover just announced they're canceling their two most affordable cars and replacing them with something very controversial. Up until right now, the entry level Range Rover has been the Evoque, a sleek little subcompact crossover they've been selling for a long time that starts at 52,000 US dollars. The step above that car is the Velar, another super sleek crossover with a sloping roof line that starts at $64,000. You might like these cars. They're very good looking and have been a good entry point for the Range Rover rank, but they're both being canceled. JLR just confirmed it this week with the British news outlet Autocar that both models will end production in mid twenty twenty seven. It surprised me at first, but when you look at the numbers, it kinda makes sense. The Velar and the Evoque combined for just 10% of Land Rover's US sales. But what is interesting is what they're planning to replace these with. The Range Rover GT is an upcoming all electric car that will serve as the new entry point for the brand starting at 90,000 US dollars. This is wild. It means the new entry point for Range Rover will be $40,000 more expensive than before, and you have to buy an EV. All of this is, of course, part of a broader all electric shift for Jaguar Land Rover. They already sell an electric Range Rover, and we just saw that crazy new Jaguar type zero one. I'm not saying this car won't be good. It's just kinda sad how expensive it will be now to get in a Range Rover. But what do you guys think?
