Tata Motors’ British-based arm Jaguar and Land Rover (JLR) is planning to recruit 1,300 new employees in Britain to support the production of F-PACE, the production version of the C-X17 concept crossover vehicle. This new jobs are an addition to the 1,700 announced last year to build the new Jaguar sports saloon the XE. The latest jobs boost is part of the company’s long-term strategy of investing in aluminium and lightweight technologies.
The F-PACE is expected to launch in 2016, and will be produced alongside the Jaguar XE at the newly built facilities within its Solihull plant near the British city of Birmingham. The company has invested £1.5 billion for creating new facilities focused on lightweight and aluminium technologies at Solihull, bringing the Jaguar brand (the XE and the F-PACE) to a facility that had previously focused on the Land Rover range.
Tata Motors is India's largest automobile company, is the leader in commercial vehicles in each segment, and among the top in passenger vehicles with winning products in the compact, midsize car and utility vehicle segments. It is also the world's fourth largest truck and bus manufacturer.
