JLR has announced its performance for its second quarter of FY26 (three‑months to 30 September 2025), amid phased restart of its manufacturing operations on Wednesday 8 October 2025 following the cyber incident.

During its Q2 FY26, wholesale volumes were 66,165 units (down 24.2%), excluding the Chery Jaguar Land Rover China JV. JLR blamed production stoppages from the cyber incident and the planned wind down of legacy Jaguar models.

“From the start of September, we have been responding to a cyber incident, which shut down our production. Since then, we have worked with retailers to prioritise the delivery of our world class vehicles to our clients,” said Adrian Mardell, CEO of JLR.

The overall mix of Range Rover, Range Rover Sport and Defender models was 76.7% of total wholesale volumes in Q2 FY26, which was down from 77.2% in the prior quarter (Q1 FY26) and up from 67.0% year‑on‑year (Q2 FY25).

During the period under review, retail sales, including Chery Jaguar Land Rover China JV., were down 17.1 percent year‑on‑year (Q2 FY25) and down 8.7 percent compared to Q1 FY26.

As expected, retail volumes for the second quarter were down in all JLR’s major markets, compared to the prior year. Retails sales during the period were : UK (‑32.3%), North America (‑9.0%), Europe (‑12.1%), China (‑22.5%), MENA1 (‑15.8%) and Overseas (‑4.1%).

“It has been a challenging quarter for JLR. In the first two months our performance was robust and in line with our expectations, against the backdrop of the planned wind down of legacy Jaguar models and the impact of incremental US Tariffs.”
