路虎已宣佈所有新的模型將建在沙烏地阿拉伯後按植物鋁是 establishedJaguar 路虎,是通過使用鋁衝壓車間和生產線,最終,讓所有新的路虎模型擴展到沙烏地阿拉伯。 英國汽車製造商簽署了一份意向書與國家產業集群發展規劃在沙烏地阿拉伯買鋁從什麼被稱為世界最大的鋁冶煉廠之一。 然後,它預計將產生車身為未來的型號和其他元件,在所有新的、 先進的衝壓廠正在建造在王國。 拉爾夫 · 斯佩思,捷豹路虎首席執行官,說,現在公司在一個堅實的基礎上,它有全球擴張。他說,他相信這一舉動是最適合企業,讓它取得世界裡最便宜的鋁。 一份諒解備忘錄預計將在 2013 年,在早期 2015 年開始生產之前簽署。 有沒有消息的新的模型將建在沙特,但 JLR 來源已經暗示,它可以基於新攬勝平臺。 新模型 (來源堅持從未打算在英國) 將最初發給沙特線作為一個被撞倒的工具組允許操作來獲得經驗之前充分生產切換到該國。 這一激進舉動,背後的主要驅動程式說佩思,是鋁的確保穩定、 具成本效益供應作為全球對材料的需求開始上升。全球燃料經濟法規預計將使輕質材料的使用日益重要的汽車工業。 沙烏地阿拉伯好定位為這個專案,因為它有兩個巨大的鋁土礦 — — 岩石,是鋁的主要來源 — — 和廉價的電力已創建鋁所需的能源密集型過程的理想選擇。 斯佩思說,捷豹路虎致力於未來的羽量級和鋁其需求將會增加很大,至少四個路虎公司模型由材料製成。大多數的未來美洲虎預計也鋁制。 Land Rover has announced an all-new model will be built in Saudi Arabia after an aluminium pressing plant is establishedJaguar Land Rover is to expand into Saudi Arabia by using an aluminium pressing plant and, eventually, a production line to make an all-new Land Rover model there. The British car maker has signed a letter of intent with the National Industrial Clusters Development Program in Saudi Arabia to buy aluminium from what is being described as one of the worlds largest aluminium smelters. It is then expected to produce body panels for future models, and other components, at an all-new, state-of-the-art pressing plant that is being built in the kingdom. Ralf Speth, CEO of Jaguar Land Rover, says now that the company is on a solid footing, it has to expand globally. He says he is confident that this move is the right one for the firm, allowing it to secure the cheapest aluminium in the world. A memorandum of understanding is expected to be signed in the middle of 2013, before the production begins in early 2015. Theres no news on which new model will be built in Saudi, but JLR sources have hinted that it could be based on the new Range Rover platform. The new model (which sources insist was never intended to be made in the UK) will initially be sent to the Saudi line as a knocked down kit to allow the operation to gain experience, before full production switches to the country. The main driver behind this radical move, says Speth, is to secure a steady, cost-effective supply of aluminium as global demand for the material starts to rise. Global fuel economy regulations are expected to make the use of lightweight materials increasingly important for the car industry. Saudi Arabia is well positioned for this project because it has both vast bauxite deposits — the rock that is the main source of aluminium — and the cheap power ideal for the energy-intensive process thats needed to create aluminium. Speth says JLR is committed to a lightweight future and its demand for aluminium will rise considerably, with at least four Land Rover company models made from the materials. Most future Jaguars are also expected to be made of aluminium.
