JLR Q1 FY27 Wholesales Down 9.2% Amid Supply Issues

New Delhi, Jul 2 (PTI) Tata group firm Jaguar Land Rover on Thursday reported a 9.2 per cent year-on-year decline in wholesale volumes at 79,300 units in the first quarter of FY27.

Volumes were affected by temporary supply constraints, including a fire at a major component supplier at the start of the quarter; market disruption linked to the conflict in the Middle East; and the planned wind-down of outgoing Jaguar models ahead of the launch of Jaguar Type 01, JLR said in a statement shared on BSE by Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd.

JLR is a wholly owned subsidiary of Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd.


The Q1 numbers are exclusive of those of the Chery Jaguar Land Rover China (CJLR) joint venture.

Wholesale volumes for the first quarter increased in MENA (4.5 per cent) and were flat in North America compared to the prior year, the company said.

However, volumes declined in the UK by 5.9 per cent, Europe by 12.1 per cent and China by 26.2 per cent, it added.

Retail sales for the first quarter, at 80,000 units (including CJLR), were down 15.3 per cent year-on-year, the statement said.
