Jaguar Land Rover will halt production for an additional week in April due to potential disruption from Brexit.
The news marks the second time in six months that the car maker will shut down its plant.
The shutdown will affect all three of its UK car plants and its engine plant.
“There will be an additional week of production stand-down 8th – 12th April due to potential Brexit disruption,” Jaguar
Land Rover said in a statement.
JLR closed its main plant in Solihull for two weeks last October to reflect “fluctuating demand”, after sales to China were hit by the country’s burgeoning trade war with the US.
