Jaguar Land Rover, part of Tata Motors since 2008, is Britain’s largest automotive manufacturer which designs, manufactures and sells some of the world’s best-known premium cars.
The two iconic brands of Jaguar Land Rover are Jaguar, with a range of luxury sedans, sports cars and luxury performance SUVs, and Land Rover, encompassing a portfolio of premium all-terrain vehicles.
The company has principal automotive manufacturing facilities in the United Kingdom at Solihull, Castle Bromwich, Halewood, Gaydon, the Engine Manufacturing Centre at Wolverhampton, and headquarters at Whitley.
