With the automotive environment evolving rapidly, Land Rover is aligning its production with the growing demand for electric vehicles. The forthcoming electrified Range Rover Sport and Range Rover, built on the MLA-Flex platform, exemplify Land Rover’s commitment to sustainability and innovation.

Despite challenges in the global market, Jaguar Land Rover remains steadfast in its pursuit of electrification. By scaling back internal combustion models and increasing focus on electric offerings, the company is poised to meet the evolving needs of consumers while staying true to its legacy of luxury and performance.
