*50,000 tonnes of CO₂ saving is based on an estimated future projection of 250,000 crosscar beams manufactured within one year, using a hybrid solution of fibre‑reinforced plastic and steel, compared to the incumbent crosscar beam component, which includes magnesium.
** CO₂ savings equivalence is based on UK government data for average household energy consumption and associated emissions. According to Ofgem and BEIS (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero), the average UK home emits approximately 3.05 tonnes of CO₂ annually from electricity and gas use. Therefore, a reduction of 50,000 tonnes of CO₂ is equivalent to the annual energy use of around 17,000 UK homes.
About JLR
JLR’s Reimagine strategy aims to deliver a sustainability‑rich vision of modern luxury by design.
We are transforming our business with the aim to become carbon net zero across our supply chain, products, and operations by 2039. Electrification is central to our strategy and before the end of the decade our brands will each have a pure electric model, while Jaguar will be entirely electric.
The flexibility of our unique powertrain technologies mean we can continue to offer hybrid and ICE vehicles in our ranges as we begin to roll out full BEV options, to match demand in the global transition to electric.
At heart we are a British company, with two design and engineering sites, two vehicle manufacturing facilities, a components and finishing facility, an electric propulsion manufacturing centre, and a battery assembly centre in the UK. We also have vehicle plants in China (joint venture), Slovakia, India, and Brazil, as well as seven technology hubs across the globe.
