海角视频 car maker Jaguar Land Rover has suspended the sale of its cars into Russia following the invasion of Ukraine.

The manufacturer said it had taken the decision due to the "wellbeing" of its workforce and those "within our extended network".

Sanctions imposed on Russia have heavily restricted the ability of companies to sell goods there.

The company said in a statement: "Jaguar Land Rover's first priority is the wellbeing of our entire workforce and their families as well as those within our extended network.

"The current global context also presents us with trading challenges so we are pausing the delivery of vehicles into the Russian market and continually monitoring the situation on behalf of our global customer base."

Jaguar Land Rover is headquartered in Whitley near Coventry and has manufacturing bases across the West Midlands and in Halewood, Merseyside.

It also has a factory in Slovakia, where it makes the Land Rover Defender and Land Rover Discovery, but none in either Ukraine or Russia.
