Tata Motors-owned Jaguar Land Rover took centre-stage as newly-wed Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, headed to their wedding reception in Windsor.
A silver-blue classic 1960s Jaguar E-Type, remodelled into Jaguar Land Rover's (JLR) electric-powered Jaguar E-Type Concept Zero, was waiting for Harry last evening to drive his new wife to Frogmore House for an intimate wedding reception for 200 friends and family being hosted by his father Prince Charles.
The car bore a special registration number in honour of the royal wedding - E190518 - marking the date of their wedding.
With the tag line of "the most beautiful electric car in the world", the vehicle symbolised the couple's eco-friendly side.
"Our aim with Concept Zero is to give Classic Jaguars a sustainable future in changing environmental and economic conditions," said Tim Hannig, Director of Jaguar Land Rover Classic.
