Since 2011:

• Doubled internal Engine Test activity

• Tripled internal Chassis-Dyno Test activity

• 15x increase in outsourced test activity

Internal capacity increase largely due to

Testfield Efficiency Projects

Facility

JLR is investing significant capital to ensure that

our facility meets the needs of our business

Continued upgrade and advancement of

existing facility

Enabled global connectivity

Invested in Research capability, joint AVL – JLR

Technical Centre, New Propulsion Development

Centre.

Making use of new rapidly deployed modular

cells to ensure capability and capacity

availability for JLRWhile Technology changes can be “bought in”, it

is essential to develop People and Teams
