Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has unveiled a new concept demonstrator vehicle showcasing the company\u2019s latest progress in circular design, low\u2011carbon engineering and next\u2011generation material innovation.<\/p>\n

JLR\u2019s engineering and industrial operations teams have collaborated with more than 40 Tier 1 and raw material suppliers to create 49 more sustainable automotive components by maximising recycled, bio\u2011based and low\u2011impact materials and designing parts so they can be taken apart for recycling and repair.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The \u2018Cornerstone\u2019 project is estimated to have delivered over a tonne of CO\u2082e savings compared to current processes and materials. It has also achieved an increase of almost 140kg in recycled material.<\/p>\n

By producing parts for a real body shell, JLR said the project helps establish clear pathways for integrating breakthrough solutions into its current and future vehicle programmes, with new headlamp technology, lower\u2011emission steel, recycled door glass, recycled seat foam and new FlexAir seat technology already planned for upcoming models.<\/p>\n

The project is also said to have resulted in multiple industry firsts, such as 100 per cent closed\u2011loop recycled door glass with a 36 per cent CO2e reduction, and initiatives affecting critical materials such as de\u2011bondable electronics that enable headlamp repair and recycling, and 95 per cent recycled magnets in speakers.<\/p>\n

Some of the suppliers JLR partnered with for the concept demonstrator vehicle include Bosch, Brembo, Pirelli and ZF.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
