JLR Extends Production Halt After Cyberattack
Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has extended the pause in vehicle production until September 24, 2025.
This decision follows a cyberattack on August 30 that forced the shutdown of its systems.
The cyberattack is under investigation, and the company is working on a safe restart of its global applications.
The production halt affects JLR's three factories in Britain, impacting about 33,000 staff, and is expected to affect their current quarter’s performance.
JLR's parent company, Tata Motors, is also expected to be adversely affected.
Reports suggest JLR has lost at least $50 million due to the shutdown.
JLR extended its production halt until September 24, 2025, following a cyberattack.
