JLR Delays Range Rover And Jaguar EV Launches Again, Here's Why
More testing, slow demand, and global market shifts push back launch timelines for Jaguar Land Rover's highly anticipated electric vehicles. Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has officially delayed the launch of its much-awaited electric Range Rover and Jaguar EV models. Originally scheduled to hit the roads by late 2025, these vehicles will now roll out sometime in 2026 and beyond. The company says it's using this extra time to carry out more in-depth testing and to wait for the EV demand to pick up. Customers who had booked the Range Rover Electric have been informed that deliveries won't begin until next year, upsetting many who were hoping to drive the new model this year. Jaguar EV Line-Up Also Faces Delay It's not just the Range Rover Electric facing a delay. Two all-new Jaguar EVs, expected as part of the brand's rebranding efforts, are also behind schedule. The first is now expected in August 2026, with the second model likely pushed to late 2027. Both models will be priced above £100,000 (Rs 1.16 crore), aimed at the luxury segment. Why the Hold-Up? One major reason for the delay is the need for further development and testing of the new EV platforms. Another contributing factor is market uncertainty. JLR wants to wait for electric vehicle demand to pick up before fully committing. Adding to the pressure, former US President Donald Trump's tariffs briefly halted exports to the United States, causing a 15.1 percent drop in JLR sales in the April–June quarter. Although a new UK-US trade deal has helped ease tariffs on the first 100,000 exports, the slowdown has impacted operations. To manage costs, JLR has also introduced a voluntary redundancy scheme for up to 500 managers. What's next for JLR's EV line-up? Besides the Range Rover Electric, JLR is also working on an electric Velar and a Defender EV. But those too could face delays. Despite setbacks, JLR remains optimistic. As per Team BHP, a spokesperson said: 'We'll launch our EVs at the right time—for our customers and for the market." view comments Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

SoftBank and OpenAI's Stargate aims building small data centre by year-end: WSJ
Agencies Sam Altman, CEO, OpenAI and Masayoshi Son, CEO, SoftBank Stargate, a multi-billion-dollar effort by ChatGPT's creator OpenAI, SoftBank and Oracle to supercharge the US' AI ambitions is now setting the more modest goal of building a small data centre by the end of the year, likely in Ohio, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday. In January, US President Donald Trump hosted top tech CEOs at the White House to highlight the $500 billion Stargate Project, which would create more than 100,000 jobs in the country. SoftBank and OpenAI, which jointly lead the joint venture, have been at odds over crucial terms of the partnership, including where to build the sites, the report said, citing people familiar with the matter. In a joint statement, the two companies told Reuters they were moving "with urgency on site assessments" and were also advancing projects in multiple states. When the project was unveiled, the companies involved, along with other equity backers of Stargate, had committed $100 billion for immediate deployment, with the remaining investment expected to occur over the next four years. Oracle Chairman Larry Ellison said at the time that the first of the project's data centres was already under construction in Texas. Trump has prioritized winning the AI race against China and declared, on his first day in office, a national energy emergency aimed at removing all regulatory obstacles to oil and gas drilling, coal and critical mineral mining, and building new gas and nuclear power plants to bring more energy capacity online.
