Jaguar Land Rover to halt production until next month after cyber attack
Jaguar Land Rover extends pause on production after crippling cyberattack
- Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has extended its production pause until 1 October 2025 following a cyber attack.
- The carmaker's production and sales were initially halted in early September after the hack was discovered on 31 August.
- JLR confirmed that "some data" was accessed by hackers, contradicting earlier suggestions of no evidence.
- Experts estimate the shutdown could lead to 50,000 fewer vehicles produced and a £120 million impact on profits if it continues until November.
- Concerns are rising for businesses and workers in JLR's supply chain, with the Business Secretary scheduled to meet affected firms.
