JLR and DHL have been collaborating for 15 years and this relationship will continue over the next three years, utilising a combined fleet of low emissions HGVs to help improve air quality in the UK and reduce CO2e emissions. JLR and DHL are currently working together to further explore opportunities to make freight greener.
Research outlines that the average sized tree in the UK absorbs 25kg of CO2e per year. This average has been used to calculate the number of trees needed to offset the same number of emissions saved by introducing this fleet of low emissions HGVs.
About JLR:
JLR’s Reimagine strategy is delivering a sustainability-rich vision of modern luxury by design.
We are transforming our business to become carbon net zero across our supply chain, products, and operations by 2039. We have set a roadmap to reduce emissions across our own operations and value chains by 2030 through approved, science-based targets. Electrification is central to this strategy and before the end of the decade our Range Rover, Discovery, Defender collections will each have a pure electric model, while Jaguar will be entirely electric.
At heart we are a British company, with two design and engineering sites, three vehicle manufacturing facilities, an engine manufacturing centre, and a battery assembly centre in the UK. We also have vehicle plants in China, Brazil, India, Austria, and Slovakia, as well as seven technology hubs across the globe.
