Abstract
Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) takes a holistic view to reducing vehicle emssions considering the whole life cycle impact including production, use phase and end-of- life. JLR’s aluminium Light Weight Vehicle unibody construction consists mainly of stamped aluminium sheet, supporting an ongoing reduction in JLR’s fleet tailpipe emissions. Increased use of recycled materials is reducing the embedded carbon/CO2 generated during the materials production phase and reduces reliance on valuable primary resources. The REALCAR (REcycled ALuminium CAR) project is investigating the viability to produce aluminum sheet alloys for use in body structures from lower cost, energy efficient, recycled sources.
