    The new jobs will be created at its factory in Solihull in central England, said a statement from Jaguar Land Rover, which is owned by India's Tata Motors.

    "Jaguar Land Rover announced an investment that will introduce an all-new technically-advanced aluminium vehicle architecture in forthcoming models," it said.

    "To support this strengthening of the Jaguar product portfolio 1,700 new jobs will be created in the UK at our advanced manufacturing facility in Solihull," the company's chief executive officer Ralf Speth said.

    "Jaguar Land Rover is a business driven by design, technology and innovation and this investment and level of job creation is yet further evidence of our commitment to advancing the capability of the UK automotive sector and its supply chain," Speth added.

    Tata Motors bought Jaguar and Land Rover from Ford Motor in 2008 for US$2.3bn as part of the company's plans to expand its reach beyond Asia.
