Chery reported to be considering acquiring the Jaguar brand; preliminary contacts made
According to a report citing internal sources at Chery International, Chery intends to acquire the Jaguar brand and has already held preliminary communications; the report frames Jaguar's owner Tata as the counterparty, with Tata's willingness to release Jaguar-related rights described as the core issue. Two possible paths are outlined: an outright acquisition of the Jaguar brand by Chery with a one-time asset transfer, or an IP joint venture modeled on the Freelander arrangement in which Tata retains brand ownership and contributes brand IP and design know-how while Chery contributes its E0X platform, electrification and supply-chain capabilities. The report notes Jaguar's FY25-26 global retail volume was just over 10,000 units (industry estimate about 14,000) and ties the brand's fate to the Type01 EV's planned 2027 US launch. No agreement has been reached; the contacts are preliminary and unconfirmed by the companies.
