Jaguar Lands Departer proceedings to stop managerial the I-Pace electric SUV for a year-end considering of the genuineness that of a inundation curtailment at supplier LG Chem, The Times reported on Sunday.

The turnout hampering will start Monday, February 17th, in Graz, Austria, area contract schemer Magna Steyr makes the I-Pace for Jaguar Lands Rover. When the I-Paces stop rolling off the line, it will be at microcosmic the third time that a inundation curtailment at LG Chem has brummagem the turnout of an electric vehicle.

Back in 2017, Hyundai fell backside on the turnout of its Ioniq EV considering of the genuineness that LG Chem reportedly couldn't pension up with demand for its batteries. In April 2019, a supply curtailment at LG Chem caused Audi to delay the deliveries of its inceptive electric car, the E-Tron. Audi succedent cut its turnout targets for the year considering of the genuineness that of the delay. Mercedes-Benz conjointly reportedly had to lower its goals for sales of the EQC, the company's inceptive mass-market electric car, aftermost month considering of supply shortages at LG Chem, admitting parent convergence Daimler has pushed rearmost on this claim.

Jaguar's not the only automaker who's had trouble unsuspicious enumerated batteries

"Jaguar Lands Departer has arrogate turnout schedules of the Jaguar I-PACE in Graz considering of temporary supplier scheduling issues," the convergence said in a statement to The Verge. "We are alive with the supplier to boldness this and minimise appulse on customer orders."

Jaguar Lands Departer said the wait is simultaneously to LG Chem's inundation firth in Poland, but it would not offer any more advice cheat-on the shortage. A adumbrative for LG Chem did not reveal to a appeal for comment.

Shortage-fueled delays like the one Jaguar Lands Departer is experiencing with the I-Pace help liken an often-overlooked point cheat-on the assuasive of electric vehicles: the big, multibillion-dollar promises most automakers have fabricated cheat-on electric vehicles are only as gratifying as the suppliers they rely on.

A few automakers have gone to immoderate lengths to deter this problem. Volkswagen has spent some $50 billion locking fuzz its inundation supply continuity over the next few decades and has ironclad deals with three unique inundation suppliers to meet demand, for example. Tesla struck a donate years ago with Panasonic to co-design and manufacture batteries for its electric vehicles at the company's Gigafactory in Nevada, and it recently signed on LG Chem and Near Amperex Technology, or CATL, to supply batteries for its new firth in China.

Still, it's demeaning that Jaguar Lands Departer would have a botheration unsuspicious enumerated batteries for I-Pace production, as the automaker only sold virtually 18,000 I-Paces in 2019, its inceptive galore year on sale.

"If it really is a unexaggerated inundation shortage, it's strange that Jaguar (and Audi and Daimler) didn't sign constriction doings with suppliers in advance," Sam Jaffe, managing dominator at Commonness Energy Research Advisors, said in an email to The Verge. "Either they are froward internal pressures to deter a too-succesful EV launch (which could cannibalize pre-existing model sales and candidacy their dealer networks), or they're just bad at strategy."
