Wonderful.
More American jobs.
However, the tariff & trade war will be over by then (3 yrs). This is just a bargaining & negotiating tactic.
But Jaguar must justify that it can sell at least double or triple # of their least expensive model, build it here & still charge the $1000 shipping charge....

If they do build that plant I doubt it would make the F-Type or the F-Type successor, I reckon it would only build the biggest selling JLR products such as Range Rover, Jag XE, F-Pace and E-Pace.

Yes, it is likely SUVs that will be made in US. Or pickup trucks, specially designed for US market... With start and stop button replaced with 'rolling coal' button.
However, parts shared with F-type will be instantly easier and cheaper to obtain.

I know someone that works at JLR and had heard they were thinking of setting up shop in the Carolinas to make the F pace. This was almost 3-4 years ago now. I'd prefer my Jag be made in England.
