Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), owned by Tata Motors, will cut around 500 managerial roles in the UK, as per news reports. This is part of a limited voluntary redundancy (VR) programme. The decision is linked to aligning leadership with current and future business needs.

The company has been under pressure due to earlier US tariffs of 25% on cars. A new UK-US trade deal has reduced this to 10% for British-made vehicles. However, exports are capped at 100,000 units annually, with higher tariffs applied beyond that.

Impact on Exports and Sales

Shipments to the US were temporarily paused earlier this year due to high tariffs. Sales between April and June saw a dip, coinciding with the halt. JLR welcomed the new trade terms but has cited global business conditions as challenging.

Production of most Jaguar models has been stopped ahead of a full relaunch expected next year. In November 2024, the company revealed a brand update, including a new logo and concept designs. This is part of its transition strategy.

Electric Vehicle Charging Pilot

Alongside structural changes, JLR is testing a smart charging system in collaboration with ev.energy. The UK-based pilot uses 10 electric Jaguar I-PACE vehicles to explore more efficient and cost-friendly EV charging options.

The company’s broader 'Reimagine' strategy includes plans for all its brands to have electric models. Jaguar is set to go fully electric before the end of the decade. JLR is investing approximately £3.5 billion annually in this transition.
