<p>
Tata Group has decided to make its Jaguar Land Rover&rsquo;s (JLR) luxury Jaguar brand entirely electric by 2025 and it plans to roll out electric models of its entire range of vehicles by 2030, the company has announced.<br />
<br />
JLR, owned by India&rsquo;s Tata Motors, said its Land Rover brand will launch six pure electric models over the next five years, with the first one coming in 2024.<br />
<br />
Jaguar faces the same challenge as many other carmakers – making the transition to electric vehicles while retaining the feeling and power of a luxury combustion engine model.<br />
<br />
JLR said it will keep all three of its British plants open as it electrifies its range. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s time to re-imagine the next chapter for both brands,&rdquo; Chief Executive Thierry Bollore said.<br />
<br />
JLR said it will spend around 2.5 billion pounds ($3.5 billion) annually on electrification technologies and the development of connected vehicle services.<br />
<br />
<strong>Toying with Hydrogen, too<br />
</strong><br />
The company said it was also investing in developing hydrogen fuel cells in anticipation of a future shift to hydrogen to power vehicles.<br />
<br />
The carmaker will have prototypes using hydrogen fuel cells on Britain&rsquo;s roads within the next year, it said, as part of a long-range investment plan.<br />
<br />
Car groups worldwide are pursuing zero-emission strategies to meet stringent CO2 emission targets in Europe and China.<br />
<br />
Luxury car brand Bentley Motors, owned by Germany&rsquo;s Volkswagen, said in November its model range will be fully electric by 2030, and last month General Motors Co said it aimed to have a zero-emission line-up by 2035.</p>
