Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) faces a prolonged production halt following a cyberattack, extending the shutdown until at least next week. Experts estimate the revenue loss could exceed £3.5 billion, impacting JLR's suppliers and potentially delaying new electric vehicle launches. While JLR maintains sufficient inventory for immediate sales, smaller supply chain companies face significant challenges. A hacker, possibly linked to the Hellcat group, has claimed responsibility for the attack, raising concerns about potential long-term financial and operational disruptions.
