Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), headquartered in Coventry and with a centre in Gaydon, has announced a tie-up with Tata Communications, concerning the latter's MOVE platform, in a move, which is set to 'supercharge' vehicle connectivity.

It will enable continuous connectivity to intelligent services across remote locations in 120 countries in JLR’s next generation software defined vehicles. The platform will also allow greater and more secure data exchange between JLR and clients’ vehicles, said Jaguar.

"The automotive industry is continually innovating to meet ever changing customer demands," said Marco Bijvelds, vice -president and global head of Tata Communications MOVE.

"Last year, our digital fabric enabled seamless connectivity across all JLR’s production sites globally.

"As part of our extended partnership, we're now powering JLR’s software defined vehicle journey worldwide and enabling them to deliver advanced driving features in their cars.

"The insights derived from the data exchanged through our platform will enable JLR to offer personalised customer experiences, opening doors for new revenue streams," he added.

Notably, JLR’s fleet of connected vehicles generates 2.5 terabytes (TB) of data, with half a million electronic control units (ECUs) updated per month on average over the last 12 months.

The use of the Tata platform will increase this data exchange and enable JLR engineers to harness deeper insights, monitor vehicle performance in real time, and enable more prompt updates over the air to improve vehicle maintenance and servicing, reducing costs for the client and JLR.

Mark Brogden, director of digital product platform Off Board at JLR, added: "The partnership with Tata Communications is the next step in our software defined vehicle journey, offering highly secure and cost effective data connectivity across 120 countries.

"Starting in 2026 with our next generation of medium size luxury SUVs, Tata Communications MOVE aims to deliver continuous connected experiences for our clients, offering features and new software updates over the air to meet the expectations of our luxury client base."
