Slovakian site opened in 2018 and produced more than 365,000 Defender and Discovery models.
JLR’s Nitra plant in Slovakia will be converted to allow production of electric vehicles by the end of the decade, securing its future as the brand pushes to launch nine EVs by 2030. The state-of-the-art plant is one of the brand’s newest, having only opened at the end of 2018 to the tune of £1.13 billion; since its launch it has produced more than 365,000 Land Rover Defender and Land Rover Discovery models.
It also opened a new £250m development hub in Coventry earlier this week. JLR would not confirm an exact amount it will spend on transforming Nitra, other than it will be part of the already confirmed £15bn electrification fund. It added that the electrification of the plant “represents the last piece in the jigsaw” as it prepares for its onslaught of new EV models.
