About the Company
Jaguar's story started in Blackpool, England, in 1922, when William Lyons and William Walmsley established the Swallow Sidecar Company (SS Cars Ltd.). The company manufactured famous models such as the XK120 and the Mark VII. These car models helped the company to secure its place as a producer of stylish saloons and sports cars. With its C-Type and D-Type car models, Jaguar dominated motorsport events like the Le Mans 24 Hours in the 1950s and 1960s.
Before joining Tata Motors in 2008, Jaguar experienced multiple ownership changes over the years, including Ford and British Leyland. Jaguar is committed to becoming an all-electric automaker, and the brand has taken the first step with the latest brand revamp and the launch of car models like the electric I-PACE.
