Jaguar Land Rover is introducing more efficient engines along with alternative powertrains, lighter vehicles, and improved vehicle energy conservation to reduce vehicle emissions and improve fuel economy across its range.
At the heart of its low-emissions strategy, the new four-cylinder Ingenium petrol engine is now in production at Jaguar Land Rover's Engine Manufacturing Centre. It will deliver up to 25 percent more power than the engines they replace and offer fuel consumption reductions of up to 15 percent.
Looking to the future, Jaguar Land Rover has developed a revolutionary advanced automatic transmission that will both improve the efficiency of future vehicles and expand their all-wheel drive capability.
The advanced research project, Transcend, uses an innovative ultra-wide ratio spread (20:1) that integrates low-range gearbox, dual-clutch, and hybrid technologies to deliver new levels of off-road performance and fuel economy improvements of nearly 10 percent.
