JLR's updated plan: more hybrids and PHEVs alongside the EVs

[Shaggy]

Some strategy news out of JLR worth knowing about. At an investor meeting, CEO PB Balaji laid out an updated plan aimed at double digit revenue growth built around the Range Rover and Defender brands. The notable shift is that instead of a straight march to all electric, the roadmap now leans harder on hybrids and plug in hybrids alongside the EVs, with combustion sticking around longer than the earlier plans suggested.

Reading between the lines, the market told them not everyone is ready to give up the engine, and they listened. Does a strong PHEV Range Rover or Defender interest you more than the full EVs?
