JAGUAR LAND ROVER RESEARCH – A PERSPECTIVE ON AUTOMOTIVE ENGINEERING RESEARCH (ELECTRIFICATION) Steve Nesbitt TRANSCEND Manager Electrification Systems Engineering 28th April 2016

The Research and Technology department is the birthplace of some of Jaguar Land Rover’s most innovative features.

Major advances are currently being made in powertrain development and the use of hybrids, electronics and entertainment, and further into the future, projects like Towards Driverless Car. There is also the aim of improving existing technology, to evolve interiors and exteriors, discover new energy storage and transmissions concepts, and to enhance weight distribution and performance.

We have 285 Research heads, 345 including Powertrain,

Who are organised into 21 Mega Projects teams and deliver more than 250 projects per year

Each Mega Project falls into one of the 5 Research Pillars: Smart, Connected, Clean, Capable & Desirable

Each of the Pillars falls into one the 5 Research Divisions: Chassis, Body, Electrical, Powertrain or Low Carbon Vehicles

Typically anything we work on in Research is a minimum of 4 years away from being on a vehicle

JLR are the largest investor in Research & Development within Engineering within the UK

TECHNICAL RESEARCH – Strategic Overview

This presentation will give an overview of each section but this graphic provides a high level overview:

We Develop technologies and concepts via a rigorous and proven stage gate process allowing us to prototype and test our products before they are transferred to Engineering for further robust design and development work.

– Research & Corporate Alignment: JLR Blueprint

We gain an ever-greater understanding of what creates uniqueness and value in the minds of our customers around the world.

We focus on ‘new’ world and sector first technologies that when applied support Jaguar Land Rover in creating a seamless customer experience, making our vehicles safer, more convenient and better connected.

We are fuelling the cost structure transformation by developing modern globally scalable technologies with drive out complexity, increased efficiency and improved intelligence and decision making within a world class cost base.

We have a best in-class process for robust delivery of a new technologies into products whilst managing the associated risk. We meet specific criteria and deliverables to ensure that the technology is feasible and robust

We have a work climate that encourages employees and suppliers to come forth with innovative ideas and concepts and develop resources skills towards technological innovation in areas that deliver brand uniqueness.

We explore the possibilities surrounding Jaguar Land Rovers future environmental impact through innovative, sustainable technologies, materials and capabilities.

We are expanding in size and capacity by re-locating to occupy the National Automotive Innovation Centre (NAIC). Providing space, and opportunity that will breathe enthusiasm and encourage further growth.

Clean (CO2/Electrification)

Capable (Vehicle Capability)

TECHNICAL RESEARCH – 5 Key Research Themes

Increase in driver assistance and active safety features that enables the vehicle to interact with customers in a smarter, more human way.

Near-field and remote vehicle communications will provide the platform for an almost unlimited set of features and applications. Ability to ‘download’ to the car dramatically changes relationship with customer.

Relentless legislative pressure to reduce CO2 and improve vehicle efficiency, most territories tracking an 80% reduction by 2050.

Technologies to support an “amongst the leaders” position in Vehicle Dynamics & Refinement for Jaguar and technologies to support a leadership position in Off-Road and ‘Breadth Of Capability’ for Land Rover/Range Rover.

Technologies to support a leadership position for both Jaguar and Land Rover in Design. This includes materials & manufacturing processes to deliver Design intent without compromise and new technologies to enhance aesthetic appeal.

– Advancing Innovation Capability

It is Jaguar Land Rovers ambition to attain an innovation leadership position in ‘Experiences Customers love for life’. Driven by this imperative, Jaguar Land Rover continuously seeks ways in which to advance its innovation capability in this highly competitive and rapidly changing world. To improve the innovation capability. Research concentrates on following seven areas:

JLR Collaborating Universities

JLR-sponsored PhD / EngDoc Students Statistics

NUMBERS PhDs = 94 EngDocs = 17 Total = 111

UNIVERSITIES = 26 Nationalities = 21

GENDER

= 79

= 32

Our students come from all over the globe...

Austria, Britain, China, Cyprus, Egypt, Germany, Greece, India, Iran, Italy, Korea, Latvia, Lebanon, Malaysia, Mexico, Poland, Republic of Ireland, Romania, Russia, Spain, Zambia...

Government and industry have worked hard to create an ‘innovation ecosystem’ that delivers for the UK, business and Government. Funding from collaborative research partners is a catalyst for action and brings together organisations who might not ordinarily work together, sharing knowledge, expertise and costs amongst participants.

In addition to many key benefits, Collaborative research partners:

Bring together those who have good ideas with those who can commercialise them

Respond to domestic demand for technology which can lead to UK manufacturing

Improve the UK’s investment offer by bringing together R&D interests from business, research and academia in one place.

Industry Bodies: Automotive Council UK EUCAR (European Council for Automotive R&D) EGVI (European Green Vehicles Initiative) AESIN (Automotive Electronic Systems Innovation Network)

Public Funding Bodies: EPSRC (Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council) InnovateUK BIS (Business Innovation & Skills) Horizon2020 High Value Manufacturing - Digital Catapult - Transport Systems
