Together with Jaguar, Land Rover will be investing £700m to reduce CO2 emissions and will be exceeding the average cuts requested by the EU. However, according to the Financial Times, the 20% target won’t meet the proposed fleet average CO2 level 130g/km currently under discussion.
Other initiatives Land Rover plans to implement include the launch of an all-new baby SUV, which was previewed in a teaser picture at last month’s Frankfurt Auto Show, as well as hybrid models. Future Land Rovers will also weigh less thanks to greater use of light-weight aluminum in their construction.
