Jags and Land Rovers to be in any colour but always green

● Car-maker’s entire range will be available in electric or hybrid by 2020 ● First fully electric model, the Jaguar I-pace, is set to go on sale next year

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has announced all of its vehicles will be available in electric or hybrid models from 2020 as it becomes the latest car-maker to move away from internal combustion engines.

The company’s first fully electric model will be the Jaguar I-pace, which will go on sale next year.

Chief executive Ralf Speth said: “Every new Jaguar Land Rover model line will be electrified from 2020, giving our customers even more choice.

“We will introduce a portfolio of electrified products across our model range, embracing fully electric, plugin hybrid and mild hybrid vehicles.”

The announcement from JLR, owned by the Indian conglomerate Tata, follows a similar pledge from the Swedish firm Volvo, which aims for all its new cars to have an electric motor from 2019.

Earlier this week Scotland’s First Minister announced plans to ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars by 2032 as part of efforts to tackle air pollution and climate change.
