New Land Rover Defender could be manufactured in India
Land Rover is planning smartly and is ready to earn some good cash in India with its new Defender. Apparently, Land Rover is planning to build-up its new car, Land Rover Defender in India itself at the Tata Motors’ manufacturing plant located in Pune, Maharashtra. The company might also send some of the models back to Europe for the final assembly in United Kingdom as a part of ‘reverse CKD’ process. Land Rover has a bit of practice in this and have already built Freelanders in the country to be sold in Asia.
