The Rover Company Limited was a British car manufacturing company in independent operation between 1878 and 1967, beginning car manufacturing in 1904. It primarily operated from its base in Solihull, Warwickshire. Rover also manufactured the Land Rover series from 1948 onwards, and created the Range Rover in 1970, which went on to become its most successful and profitable product. Land Rover eventually became a separate company and brand in its own right.
Rover was bought by Leyland Motors in 1967, which had already acquired Standard-Triumph seven years earlier. Initially, Rover maintained a level of autonomy within the Leyland conglomerate, but by 1978, Leyland – by then British Leyland (BL) – had run into severe financial difficulties and had been nationalized by the British Government. Most of the assets of the former Rover Company were moved into a new BL subsidiary named Land Rover Ltd whilst the Rover marque itself continued to be used on other BL products which relied largely on Honda engineering. Nevertheless, Rover ultimately became the most prolific brand within BL and gave its name to the entire conglomerate in the form of the Rover Group in 1986, of which MG, Mini and Land Rover remained a part until the Rover Group was broken up by BMW in 2000.
Currently, the Rover marque is the dormant property of the Rover Company’s de facto successor – Jaguar Land Rover (owned by Tata Motors), which still operates out of Rover’s Solihull plant.
Ownership: The Rover trademark is held by Jaguar Land Rover Limited, which was acquired by Tata Motors from Ford in 2008.
Status: The brand is considered “dormant,” meaning no new cars are being manufactured under the Rover name.
Separation of Brands: While Rover and Land Rover were historically linked, they separated when BMW broke up the Rover Group in 2000. Land Rover thrived under new ownership, while the Rover passenger car brand ceased operations in 2005.
Legacy: The final Rover models included the Rover 75 and the Rover CityRover.
