Feb 16,2020 2:49 am

Jaguar Land Rover booked a loss for The Last three months of 2018 as sales collapsed in China.

The Company booked a £3. 1bn reduction in the value of its plants and other Investments leading to a £3. 4bn quarterly loss, its biggest to date.

Sales for the quarter were £6. 2bn, down from £6. 3bn a year earlier. It sold 144,602 vehicles, down from 154,447.

Jaguar chief executive Ralf Speth said: "Jaguar Land Rover reported strong third-quarter sales in the UK and North America , but our overall performance continued to be impacted by challenging market conditions in China. "

Excluding the write-down, which affects its balance sheet but has no effect on cash, The Company posted a loss of £273m.

Much of The Firm 's model range is currently diesel-powered, while diesel sales in Europe have been falling.

Jaguar Land Rover , which is owned by India's Tata Motors , has embarked on a major restructuring programme to prepare for The Future and boost profitability.
