J.D. Power 2015 Customer Service Index Study of Dichotomy: Yay Jaguar! Better luck never Land Rover.
Jaguar Land Rover should have put out a one line press release that said:
“Thank you but we’re still working on things”
Instead they list their accomplishments without ever mentioning the other half of their company that actually came in last place. It’s a little embarrassing. Jaguar should be very proud of what they’ve accomplished but at the same time for all their talk of synergy and being a family, to have Land Rover come in dead last really should temper any excitement.
Crazier still is putting out a picture like the one below knowing that right out of frame are some Land Rovers which came in dead last in same survey. How do they all look at each other with straight faces? Even the J.D. Power guy has to be concerned.
Something is still very wrong at Jaguar Land Rover. Cars are great – some of the best out there but these customer service issues have to stop.

All-New Sport is just that.
Range Rover got the V6, Stop-Start and all the same parking/lane departure tech that the Sport has BUT it’s planned for a mid-year introduction. No mention of the upgraded front seats.

Land Rover Announces 2014 U.S. Model Lineup
(MAHWAH, N.J.) – September 12, 2013 – The 2014 model year continues the most dynamic product development and introduction period in the brand’s history. An all-new Range Rover Sport is introduced, based on the all-new aluminum-intensive Range Rover that debuted for 2013. The Range Rover itself sees a significant increase in fuel efficiency for 2014 with the introduction of a new supercharged 3-liter V6 engine, for up to EPA-estimated 23 mpg in highway driving1, replacing the naturally aspirated 5-liter V8.
The Range Rover Evoque debuts one of the first nine-speed automatic transmissions in a passenger vehicle. The sporty Range Rover Evoque, the smallest and lightest Range Rover model, has become its worldwide best seller, with more than 170,000 sold in its’ first 18 months.
The Land Rover LR4 also replaces the 5-liter V8 with the 340hp supercharged V6, teamed to an 8-speed automatic. The Land Rover LR2, which received the 240hp turbocharged engine from the Range Rover Evoque for 2013, delivers pure Land Rover style in a compact model and adds infotainment upgrades for 2014.
