- The Tata Motors Group currently has three plants in Europe, all of which are in Britain, one in Solihull (capacity: 200 000 vehicles per year), the second in Halewood (capacity: 200 000 vehicles per year) and the third in Castlebromwitch (capacity: 90 000 vehicles per year).

- The group has chosen to manufacture the future Jaguar XE (segment D) on the site of Solihull. This model scheduled for summer 2015 will be the first Jaguar made on this site. Two main factors have contributed to this choice: 1 / This site is the one out of the three that has sufficient unused production capacity (about 50 000 in 2013) 2 / New Land Rover models which are to be produced in Solihull will share their platform with the future Jaguar XE.

- A third factor has been taken into account: Land Rover plans to start producing vehicles in China at the end of 2014 (130 000 per full year). Currently, however, Land Rovers sold in China are mainly exported from the Solihull plant. It is therefore certain that at the launch of the Chinese Land Rover plant (built in JV with Chery), shipments from Britain (and therefore Solihull) will gradually decrease, leaving additional capacity in Solihull (according to Inovev, approximately another 50 000 units per year in addition to the existing free capacity).
