Keep That Upper Lip Stiff, Brits, Electric LR Defender Will Be Made In Slovakia

Five-year-old Nitra facility will play a crucial part in JLR’s roll-out of nine new EVs by 2030

The Land Rover Defender styles itself as British through and through, but the reinvented icon is actually built exclusively in JLR’s Nitra plant in Slovakia, which is 1,120 miles from the Indian-owned British company’s HQ. And now JLR has reiterated its commitment to the Nitra operation by confirming it will build EVs for the company by the end of the decade.
