Rants from JLR Investor Day 2023

Here’s the presentation deck:  JLR Investor Day 2023

Gotta love this one and the way the disclaimer is wonderfully de-emphasized Pricing transparency, with clear labeling showing the $30k we need to pay over sticker, but don’t blame JLR. Also they capitalized “Retailer” but not “defender”

 

Poor Jaguar, they push “A Copy of Nothing” line with the images showing classics. They really want to forget about the recent ones. Did they even exist?

E-PACE

F-PACE

I-PACE

Gone-PACE

 

JLR is saying that dropping Land Rover from Defender, et al. will increase sales 5.5% in the USA?

 

Also probably need to work on proofing more, new brand should probably get a capital.

 

Really hope better attention to detailing is going into the BEV cars that will save the company.

On trend and on schedule – the refreshed, buttonless 2024 Evoque

5/17 – 2024 Range Rover
5/31 – 2024 Range Rover Sport (SV)
6/14 – 2024 Discovery Sport
6/21 – 2024 Range Rover Evoque

It felt like something would be happening today.  I wonder if they refresh the Discovery next week??

Quoted from the PR:

At the beginning of every journey, drivers are presented with a Pre-Drive panel for fast access to commonly used features, such as window demisters and heated seats. Once on the move, it disappears to reveal the familiar three-panel home screen that can be customized with trademark Pivi Pro intelligence and flexibility.

We need to see the Pre-Drive in action – could this be that Shortcuts menu?

Also Evoque has Autobiography trim level for 2024 but no SV… hahaha

New Shortcuts tile coming to Pivi Pro?

As seen at a Range Rover Sport SV event – what appears to be a customizable Shortcuts tile for Pivi Pro.  Finally being able to disable Auto Stop/Start from the main screen!  The drop down option for the SV menu also alludes to interesting UI.

This is going to be really helpful for owners after the MY24 physical controls apocalypse.

We have to keep an eye out for what it will actually let us add there.
