Land Rover is a name many Canadians know and love. These SUVs are known for their strength, luxury, and style. But many people often wonder where they are actually built. Most people think of England first, and that's a good place to start. Land Rover was born there, and even today, most of its vehicles are still made in the United Kingdom. Over time, though, the brand has spread to different parts of the world.
New Inventory Used InventoryLand Rover didn't begin with cars. Back in 1885, it started as the Rover Company, making bicycles in Warwickshire, England. That small company grew over time. It changed hands more than once. Today, Land Rover is owned by Tata Motors, an automotive company based in India. Tata bought both Land Rover and Jaguar from Ford in 2008. Now, the two are together under one brand--Jaguar Land Rover Limited.
Most Land Rover models are still made in Britain. The Solihull plant builds the Range Rover, Range Rover Sport, and Range Rover Velar. The Halewood plant is where the Range Rover Evoque and Land Rover Discovery Sport are made. These plants are known for their high-quality standards. Vehicles built here are often sent around the world--including right here to Ottawa.
Even though England is the main home, Land Rover has grown. There are now manufacturing plants in different countries. In Slovakia, the Nitra plant makes the Land Rover Defender and the Land Rover Discovery. In Brazil, the Itatiaia plant builds some Discovery Sport and Evoque models. The same models are also made in China at the Changshu plant. And in India, the Pune plant also helps with production. This helps Land Rover meet growing demand across the globe.
This question comes up often. Are Land Rovers made in the U.S.? The answer is no. As of now, there are no Land Rover manufacturing plants in the United States. All models sold in Canada or the U.S. are imported. Most come from the U.K., with others arriving from Slovakia or Brazil depending on the trim and model.
Living in a city like Ottawa, with its snowy winters and rougher rural roads just outside town, it's easy to see why Land Rovers are so popular. They're built to handle different kinds of weather and terrain. It also helps that these vehicles come with luxury features and modern tech. Whether you're heading downtown or driving to a weekend cabin in Gatineau Park, these SUVs feel right at home.
Even though Land Rovers aren't built in Canada or the U.S., they're made with the kind of quality Canadians can rely on. Strong builds, smooth drives, and a touch of British class--that's what makes them special. Every model at Land Rover Hunt Club in Ottawa is ready to deliver that experience.
