Range Rover has introduced its first fully electric model, after a year-long delay to its planned launch.
The electric roll-out comes after a turbulent year, with profits dropping to £66 million in the first quarter after a fire at a key Norwegian supplier.
The Coventry-based carmaker also faces supply chain disruption and restructuring following a cyber attack last year.
The Range Rover Electric marks a major shift in the maker’s electrification programme.
Parent company JLR says it has up-skilled 10,500 workers for electric production.
The company says the launch was being supported by new battery and electric drive unit production lines as well as training about 9,000 employees for electrification and a further 1,500 across the West Midlands region.
