JLR production ground to a halt late on August 31 due to a “cyber incident”, and it still has yet to resume.

The company has confirmed production of its vehicles will remain paused until September 24, 2025. It initially announced the production pause on September 2 on its website, confirming it took immediate action to mitigate the impact of the cyber attack by shutting down its systems.
