LONDON, Sept. 25 (Xinhua) -- Britain's car manufacturing slumped in August, underscoring mounting pressures on the auto industry even before a cyberattack forced Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) to extend a production halt.
Car production fell 10.2 percent from a year earlier to 37,072 units, while total output including vans, buses and trucks dropped 18.2 percent to 38,693 units -- the weakest August performance since 1956, according to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) on Thursday.
