Manufacturing in Brazil

The fully flexible plant has been designed to support the company's future plans and represents Jaguar Land Rover's long-term commitment to the Brazilian market.

The factory includes a series of environmental features, such as rainwater collection and the planting of more than 1,200 indigenous trees to help preserve and improve the natural habitat around the factory. Jaguar Land Rover is aiming to achieve the globally recognised LEED Gold sustainability accreditation - the first automotive vehicle assembly plant in Brazil to do so.

The plant includes cutting-edge manufacturing technologies and has the most advanced Emissions Conformity and Certification facility in South America.

As part of its on-going commitment to the Brazilian automotive industry, Jaguar Land Rover has sourced major components such as the seats, cockpit, exhaust, chassis and powertrain assembly from local suppliers including Benteler and IAC. In addition, Jaguar Land Rover has invested in its technical assistance services to help suppliers support increased levels of localisation in the future.
