Tata Motors to create 1,000 jobs at JLR plant in UK

摘要

Tata Motors-owned Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is considering a major expansion plan at its UK factory which could create as many as 1,000 jobs. It has singled out its Halewood factory in Merseyside, north-west England, for the latest investment injection as a result of rising demand for the Range Rover Evoque as well as a rollout of new models. JLR chief executive Ralf Speth plans to launch 40 new models in the next five years and aims to double car sales to 750,000 by 2015.
