Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd.

Tata Motors’ subsidiary -- Jaguar Land Rover (JLR)-- has opened $750m (Rs 2,400 crore) manufacturing facility and Education Business Partnership Centre in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil as part of an investment announced before car sales began nose diving in the world's ninth-largest economy. This new facility will build both the Range Rover Evoque and Land Rover Discovery Sport for Brazilian customers which has a maximum capacity of 24,000 vehicles but will produce less than 10,000 units this year.
