It's more uncommon these days to see a car manufacturer announcing a combustion engine vehicle than it is an electric one, which is what makes the latest news coming out of Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) less surprising.
As reported on by the BBC, the British automotive titan has now kicked into effect a £15 billion investment that will see it preparing for an EV future. The money will see various plants and facilities around the UK being converted into all-electric facilities (with the first being in Merseyside, and with Solihull and Wolverhampton following suit), all so that JLR can commit to a net zero carbon by 2039 plan.
This move will also see JLR creating its first-ever all-electric Range Rover SUV, which is slated to enter into production in 2025. While JLR is clearly behind many other giant automotive companies, this does at least show that the car brand is getting ready to leave fossil fuels and combustion engines behind.
