The electric reinvention of Land Rover continues apace, too, and order books for the battery-electric Range Rover will open later this year ahead of the car going on sale by the end of 2024.
It will be the first electric Land Rover from JLR (the new official name for Jaguar Land Rover) and will be built at the Solihull production facility in the Midlands.
Like its donor car, the Range Rover EV will be based on the MLA platform, which supports both hybridised ICE and fully electric powertrains.
JLR vehicle programmes director Nick Collins said it will "deliver true Range Rover values", including "off-road ability, usability and refinement" in an "uncompromised" approach. He added: "It will be a benchmark for refined luxury and a testament for what this brand will create."
