Luxury car maker Jaguar Land Rover is cutting activity at its Solihull factory until the spring as it battles with a global shortage of semiconductors.
The company said production would be reduced at the plant between January and the end of March as it prioritises more profitable models.
Semiconductors are used to control various systems such as anti-lock braces and sat-navs but car makers across the planet have been struggling to source them in numbers since early last year.
