  "account": "JLR has officially announced that the Range Rover Evoque and Velar will be discontinued by the end of 2027, streamlining their product line-up to just two models for now. The new Range Rover GT is set to replace these two, debuting in 2027. Initially teased in July, the GT is available in combustion, hybrid, and electric variants, powered by the new EMA platform. Styled like a coupe with a Jaguar Type 01-inspired interior, the GT starts at around £100,000 (R2,205,160), making it the entry-level model in the Land Rover portfolio. The GT will also replace the Discovery Sport in the lineup once it ends its production run in December 2027. The Evoque has been on the market since 2018, while the Velar, the marque's oldest model, has been in production since 2017. More information about the GT's features and availability will be revealed in 2027, with JLR South Africa expected to share these details in the same year.",
