Jaguar Land Rover to cut up to 500 jobs
Jaguar Land Rover plans to cut up to 500 jobs due to US trade tariffs impacting its profits. The carmaker cited a drop in sales partly caused by tariffs on British car exports to the US and a wind-down of older models. Experts link the job cuts to the impact of increased tariffs on UK carmakers, despite recent reductions in tariffs following a UK-US trade deal. JLR's move to reduce management roles is described as "normal business practice" but is seen as a response to the ongoing challenges from trade tariffs.
