Jaguar Land Rover wins two Mecoty awards
AMMAN, December 24, 2015
Luxury automotive manufacturer Jaguar Land Rover has won two automotive accolades at the second edition of the Middle East Car of the Year (Mecoty) Awards, where the Jaguar XE and Range Rover Sport SVR were both named the best cars in their segments.
Jaguar's XE won the title of Mecoty ‘Best Compact Executive Sedan’ of the year, triumphing over a very competitive set of established vehicles in the segment.
Designed to offer an unrivalled combination of steering response, ride comfort, refinement and performance, the Jaguar XE has garnered a huge amount of attention since its launch and continues to make an impact in the Middle East and North Africa (Mena) region.
Dubbed the true driver’s car in its segment, the Jaguar XE plays testament to the brand’s commitment to deliver innovative vehicle dynamics and groundbreaking performance.
Land Rover also witnessed the Range Rover Sport SVR claim the award for ‘Best Premium Performance SUV.'
Unleashing the full potential of the Range Rover Sport, the high-performance SVR was created by the Special Vehicle Operations (SVO) team as a natural progression beyond the core vehicle’s outstanding on- and off-roading capabilities.
Bruce Robertson, managing director at Jaguar Land Rover Mena, said: “Designed, engineered and built in Britain, both the Jaguar XE and the Range Rover Sport SVR have been tested for this region and truly demonstrate our commitment to delivering best-in-class, premium and exhilarating driving experiences to our customers.
“This is a very exciting time for both our brands and we are proud to have two of our newest vehicles recognised by MECOTY, which is quickly becoming one of the most prestigious automotive award platforms in this region.” - TradeArabia News Service
