JLR and Tata Communications to deliver smarter cars via platform

JLR and Tata Communications are set to enhance JLR’s connected vehicle ecosystem, transforming the driving experience for customers worldwide through the Tata  Communications MOVE™ platform. The collaboration will empower JLR’s next-generation software-defined vehicles with continuous connectivity and access to intelligent services even in the remotest locations across 120 countries. The latest collaboration is an extension of their existing partnership to future-proof the carmaker’s digital  transformation. 

Leveraging Tata Communications MOVE™ platform, JLR’s upcoming medium-sized SUVs built on the new Electric  Modular Architecture (EMA) will seamlessly transition between mobile networks and operators, enabling non-stop  access to personalised connected services, such as media streaming. The platform will also enable greater and more  secure data exchange between JLR and its customers’ vehicles, delivering more efficient software over-the-air (SOTA)  updates and supporting the rollout of evolving advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). 

Every day, JLR’s fleet of connected vehicles generates 2.5 terabytes (TB) of data, with half a million electronic control  units (ECUs) updated per month on average over the last 12 months. The use of Tata Communications MOVE™ platform will increase this data exchange and enable JLR engineers to harness deeper insights, monitor vehicle  performance in real-time, and enable more prompt updates over the air to improve vehicle maintenance and  servicing, reducing costs for the car owners and JLR. 

The advanced vehicles, expected to hit the roads in 2026, will deliver a smarter and more intelligent driving  experience. 

The introduction of the Tata Communications MOVE™ will offer JLR customers:  
• Resilient wireless communication technologies to help track vehicles in the most demanding environments • Increased and more frequent vehicle software updates delivered over the air to improve vehicle diagnostics and  updates 
• Tailored connections will keep customers and their families connected to their preferred applications and  vehicle features, wherever they are in the world  
• Simplified and effortless connectivity plans, accessible via a single provider 

Marco Bijvelds, Vice President and Global Head, Tata Communications MOVE™, said, “The automotive industry is  continually innovating to meet ever-changing customer demands. Last year, our digital fabric enabled seamless  connectivity across all JLR’s production sites globally. As part of our extended partnership, we're now powering JLR’s  software-defined vehicle journey worldwide and enabling them to deliver advanced driving features in their cars. The 

insights derived from the data exchanged through our platform will enable JLR to offer personalised customer  experiences, opening doors for new revenue streams.” 

Mark Brogden, Director- Digital Product Platform Off-Board, JLR said, “JLR was the first luxury vehicle  manufacturer to introduce dual modem, dual eSIM design for enhanced connectivity with the launch of Defender in  2020. The partnership with Tata Communications is the next step in our software-defined vehicle journey, offering  highly secure and cost-effective data connectivity across 120 countries. Starting in 2026 with our next generation of  medium-size luxury SUVs, Tata Communications MOVE™ aims to deliver continuous connected experiences for our  clients, offering features and new software updates over-the-air to meet the expectations of our luxury client base.’’
