Jaguar XE, range Rover Sport SVR win at MECOTY

Luxury automotive manufacturer Jaguar Land Rover was the proud recipient of two prestigious automotive accolades at the second edition of the Middle East Car of the Year (MECOTY) Awards, held on October 29.

Jaguar saw its new Jaguar XE win the MECOTY ‘Best Compact Executive Sedan’ of the year.

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 here in MENA.

Dubbed the true driver’s car in its segment, the XE plays testament to Jaguar’s commitment to deliver innovative vehicle dynamics and ground-breaking performance.

Land Rover also witnessed its Range Rover Sport SVR scoop up the award for ‘Best Premium Performance SUV’.

The high-performance SVR has been created by the Special Vehicle Operations (SVO) team as a natural progression beyond the core vehicle’s outstanding on-and off-roading capabilities.

The winners were announced at the awards ceremony that took place at Raffles Dubai.

Managing Director, Jaguar Land Rover MENA, Bruce Robertson, 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.”
