Our commitment is to a sustainable future. Everything from the design of our vehicles and
the way we build them, to how and where we use them and, at the end of their life, to how they
can be safely disposed of, Land Rover is committed to a sustainable future. We’re committed to
reducing our impact on the environment and are working in four key areas.
e_TERRAIN TECHNOLOGIES.
In 2007 we announced a joint investment into
new technologies to improve the environmental
performance of our vehicles. This joint investment
now stands at £800m. In 2008 we revealed our new
concept vehicle, the LRX; a Land Rover in body and
spirit but conceived as a hybrid 2.0 liter diesel with
potential CO2 emissions of 120g/km.
SUSTAINABLE MANUFACTURING.
World class manufacturing facilities. Certified to ISO14001 since 1998.
Our manufacturing facilities at Solihull and Halewood have reduced emissions by
around 4 percent year on year, over the last 5 years. Total energy used in manufacturing
each vehicle has been reduced by 19 percent since 2002. While water use per vehicle
has been cut by 14 percent in the same period. We’re also offsetting all CO2 emissions
by the manufacturing assembly of Land Rover vehicles at both plants. Partnered with
specialist organization Climate Care, our offset projects include a wind farm in China
and hydro electric generators in Tajikistan. In addition, Land Rover vehicles are now
designed to be 85 percent recyclable with all current models meeting the European End
of Life Vehicles Directive. Sustainable and recyclable materials pay an important role
too: LR2 contains 10 percent recycled and 10 percent renewable materials.
