Where is Land Rover produced?
2 Answers
Land Rover is a British automobile manufacturer. Some models under the Land Rover brand are produced in the UK, while others are manufactured domestically. The domestically produced Land Rover models include the Evoque and Discovery. Below are specific details about Land Rover: 1. Historical Background: Land Rover is a British luxury all-terrain SUV brand, founded by Maurice Wilks in 1948. It is currently owned by the Indian Tata Motors Group. 2. Three Major Product Families: Land Rover currently has three major product families: the Range Rover series, the Discovery series, and the Defender series.
Most of Land Rover's production facilities are located in the UK, its place of origin, with the Solihull plant being the main production base where popular models like the Range Rover and Discovery are manufactured. Having been in the automotive industry for many years, I've learned that Land Rover was founded in 1948 by Rover in the UK, later acquired by several companies, and is now owned by India's Tata, but core manufacturing remains in the UK. This reflects the changes in global industry: after Tata's acquisition, it preserved the tradition of British factories while expanding production capacity at the Pune plant in India to serve the Asian market. I've also heard that there are collaborative plants in China and Slovakia producing certain specific models. This distribution makes the brand more global, yet the authentic heritage is deeply rooted in British design.
