Jaguar is the luxury vehicle brand of Jaguar Land Rover, a British multinational car manufacturer headquartered in Whitley, Coventry, England. Jaguar Land Rover became a subsidiary of Tata Motors in 2008, when Tata acquired Jaguar Cars Limited and Land Rover from Ford. That same year, Tata Motors, part of the Tata Group, established Jaguar Land Rover Limited as a wholly owned British subsidiary, designed to serve as the holding company for these acquisitions.
On January 1, 2013, the company underwent a major restructuring, combining its operations under a single parent company, renamed Jaguar Land Rover Automotive PLC. Meanwhile, Jaguar Cars Limited became Jaguar Land Rover Limited, with the responsibility for designing, producing, and marketing both Jaguar and Land Rover products in the UK.
Some of the popular models under the Jaguar brand include the XE, XF, and F-Pace. For luxury offerings, the XJ L is a standout, while the performance-focused F-Type continues to capture attention. The company is also developing its all-electric SUV, the I-Pace, featuring bold wheel arches and a sleek, aerodynamic design.
Founded as the Swallow Sidecar Company in 1922 by Sir William Lyons and William Walmsley, the company rebranded to Jaguar in 1945 after the SS name was abandoned due to its association with World War II. In 1966, Jaguar merged with the British Motor Corporation (BMC) to form British Motor Holdings (BMH), which later merged with Leyland to create the British Leyland Motor Corporation (BLMC) in 1968. After being acquired by Ford in 1999, Jaguar became part of the Premier Automotive Group, which eventually sold off Land Rover and Aston Martin. In 2008, the company was acquired by Tata Motors, marking the beginning of a new chapter for Jaguar under Indian ownership.
