Slightly behind Jaguar, Land Rover will roll out six pure electric models in the next five years, with the first all-electric Land Rover available from 2024.
Attempting to achieve net-zero emissions across its supply chain, products, and operations by 2039, the firm is also preparing for the adoption of clean fuel-cell power in line with the development of the hydrogen economy.
According to the firm’s predictions, hydrogen fuel cell prototypes will arrive on UK roads within the next 12 months, as part of its long-term investment programme.
Thierry Bolloré, chief executive of JLR, said: “Jaguar Land Rover is unique in the global automotive industry. Designers of peerless models, an unrivalled understanding of the future luxury needs of its customers, emotionally rich brand equity, a spirit of Britishness and unrivalled access to leading global players in technology and sustainability within the wider Tata Group.”

Bolloré continued: “We are harnessing those ingredients today to reimagine the business, the two brands and the customer experience of tomorrow.

“Together, we will help Jaguar realise its potential, reinforce Land Rover’s timeless appeal and collectively become a symbol of a truly responsible business for its customers, society and the planet.”
