Tata Motors owned Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) Chief Executive Officer Adrian Mardell is leaving the company.
“Adrian Mardell has expressed his desire to retire from JLR after three years as CEO and 35 years with the company,” JLR said in a statement. “His successor will be announced in due course.”
Mardell’s departure comes as JLR faces huge business challenges in the shape of import tariffs in the US – its biggest market – and a controversial luxury rebrand for Jaguar which see its range fully revamped as BEV-only from 2026.
Jaguar isn’t making any cars until the new electric lineup is ready next year.
Mardell was appointed to the position of CEO in November 2022. Prior to that he was JLR's Chief Financial Officer.
