Firms must hit government-set targets or face fines; JLR's much-anticipated second EV already has a 33,000 waitlist

JLR bosses are confident the upcoming Range Rover Electric will make the firm compliant with the UK's zero-emission vehicle mandate, with some 33,000 buyers already on its waiting list and the figure predicted to keep growing until it launches in a year’s time. As per the ZEV mandate, which came into effect in January, 22% of all manufacturers’ UK new car sales must be ZEVs, rising to 28% next year, 33% in 2026, and continuing to 80% by 2030.

With around a year still to go until orders open officially, some 33,000 people globally are already on the waiting list for Land Rover’s debut EV. “The interest that we're starting to see in Range Rover BEV is quite extraordinary,” said JLR CEO Adrian Mardell. "If that waiting list continues to grow at this level, it's certain this product will be sold out for the first part of its life.
