Jaguar Land Rover has confirmed that the new Land Rover Discovery will be produced at two European plants, at Solihull in the UK and Nitra in Slovakia, following strong advanced orders for the new flagship in the Land Rover model range.
The Slovakian facility, which will open in 2018, will add to production from Solihull, which is operating at full capacity across three shifts, with 24-hour production to support global demand for Range Rover, Range Rover Sport and the recently launched Jaguar F-PACE. Together these models have helped Jaguar Land Rover achieve a year-on-year sales increase of 23% to October.
The announcement follows confirmation at the recent Los Angeles Auto show that the Jaguar I-Pace – the company’s first battery electric vehicle – will be manufactured under contract by Magna Steyr in Austria.
