Land Rover Cars in India

2018 marked the 70th anniversary of the production of the first Land Rover. It has been the first true all-terrain vehicle well-suited for deserts, mountains, mud, sand, and snow. It has always stood for capability and adventure. The ability to go ‘above and beyond’ has always been at the heart of Land Rover. It dominated 70% of the global aid market for automobiles in the 1970s. Across the world, all Land Rover cars have helped establish the brand as a symbol of hope and rescue. It reached places where no car had before, to help people and causes in far-reaching areas across the globe.

On 18th January 2008, Tata Motors established Jaguar Land Rover Limited as a British-registered, wholly-owned subsidiary. It became a holding company for the acquisition of the two businesses from Ford - Jaguar Cars and Land Rover. That acquisition was completed on 2nd June 2008 at £1.7 billion.

Land Rover’s official India entry was marked by the opening of the flagship showroom facility in Mumbai by Ratan Tata. The initial Land Rover cars in India were the Discovery 3, Range Rover, and the Range Rover Sport. They all were brought in as CBUs.
