Great news for the British economy.

Jaguar Land Rover is going to build a range of electric cars in the UK, safeguarding thousands of jobs and delivering a huge boost to the industry after a series of setbacks in recent months.

JLR said its announcement was the next significant step in delivering on the company’s commitment to offer customers electrified options for all new Jaguar and Land Rover models from 2020. Dr Speth said: “We are co-locating our electric vehicle manufacture, electronic drive units and battery assembly to create a powerhouse of electrification in the Midlands.”

“The Government has made a big strategic choice in its industrial strategy to be a leading force in the move to electric vehicles, investing and building on our research strengths in the Faraday Challenge and the Battery Industrialisation Centre. We are now perfectly placed to host a gigafactory and we are determined to realise that ambition.

“This is a proud day for our members and Jaguar Land Rover. The Government and Theresa May’s replacement as prime minister must make sure it is not the last for the UK’s world-beating car workers and their families.”
