NAIV will be a venture between JLR along with Tata Motors European Technical Centre (TMETC), WMG (Warwick Manufacturing Group) and the UK Government's Higher Education Funding Council England (HEFCE).

On the other hand, the company finally took the logical decision of stopping production at its Zaragoza plant in Spain. This unit has been consistently making losses over the past five years on the back of sharp fall in sales. To cut these losses, production is expected to stopped from October’13.
