JLR Q3 Sales Plunge After Cyberattack and Tariffs as Tata Motors PV Shares Fall

Provisional figures blame the cyber incident plus a distribution lag for the quarter’s shortfall.

Overview

  • Jaguar Land Rover reported Q3 FY26 wholesales of 59,200 vehicles, down 43.3% year on year, with retail sales down 25.1% to 79,600.
  • Production halted after the late‑August cyberattack and only returned to normal by mid‑November, leaving a backlog that slowed deliveries.
  • North America saw the steepest declines, with wholesale volumes down 64.4% and retail sales down 37.7%, while Europe, China and other regions also fell.
  • JLR cited incremental US tariffs and the planned wind‑down of legacy Jaguar models ahead of new launches as additional drags on volumes.
  • Shares of newly listed Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles dropped roughly 3.5–4% on the update, and the company said audited Q3 results will follow in February.
