Jaguar Land Rover is reportedly planning to manufacture its first all-electric car in Austria starting next year.
The Tata Motors owned company has leasing space in an existing factory for the production of 10,000 cars a year, reported The Sunday Times.
According to reports, the new plan is an attempt by the company to expand its worldwide manufacturing reach.
According to other sources, the company is building the EVs due to looming European Union emission fines.
The company recently opened a car factory in China along with the launching a new facility in Brazil.
Jaguar Land Rover said: "Jaguar Land Rover continues to evaluate opportunities in a range of markets to increase our global manufacturing footprint in the future. Discussions on all manufacturing plants remain commercially confidential. No decision has been taken on future manufacturing locations."
