Jaguars have had a complex history of ownership and manufacturing partnerships. While Ford did own Jaguar from 1999 to 2008, they are no longer involved in the production of Jaguar cars. However, it is worth noting that during Ford’s ownership, there were some shared technologies and components between Ford and Jaguar models.
Currently, Jaguar is owned by Tata Motors, an Indian automotive company. Jaguar headquarters is located in Whitley, Coventry, England, and production takes place within the United Kingdom. Jaguar cars are assembled at plants in Castle Bromwich and Solihull.
In conclusion, while there may have been some shared technologies and components during Ford’s ownership, Jaguars are not currently made with Ford parts.
