????增長最快豪華品牌 ????捷豹(Jaguar)在印度塔塔集團(Tata)麾下繼續演繹著王者歸來的傳奇,銷量猛增了41%。圍繞F型運動轎車的系列活動對此頗有助力,但真正的推動力來自鳳凰涅槃的XF轎車,它新推出的四缸和六缸車型及全時四驅才是幕后功臣。日產(Nissan)英菲尼迪現在將總部遷到了香港,打算在接下來的數年里重振雄風,但在它將全系車型用“Q”打頭的字母數字形式重新命名后,銷量卻下滑了4%。 |

Nissan's Infiniti, now headquartered in Hong Kong and beginning a multi-year turnaround, watched its sales drop 4% after renaming all its models with alpha-numerics beginning with the letter "Q."??? |
