We don’t want to be too on the nose here, but Land Rover has actually had a rough ride in recent years. Sales have slumped amid the perfect storm of Brexit uncertainty, a downturn in demand in China (that companies like Jaguar Land Rover and McLaren had really started to rely on) and the slump in diesel sales. Throw in the need for a nimble pivot to electric propulsion and the lack of spare cash for R&D and the writing is on the wall. Or at least it’s being written.
