Jaguar Land Rover mulls China plant

Jaguar Land Rover, owned by India’s Tata group, plans to produce more than 50,000 vehicles a year from a new plant in China.
Chief Executive Ralf Speth said JLR could "begin immediately" if it reaches a joint venture deal with a Chinese industrial partner. That would mean two quintessentially British cars, the Jaguar and the Land Rover, will be built by an Indian company in China.
The new plant is expected to create up to 5,000 jobs.
The Economic Times reports JLR is negotiating with large state-controlled vehicle makers and with Chinese regions to find the best bridgehead into the market.
