"Jaguar Land Rover highly values the Chinese market - we will offer more models to meet the demand of our consumers," said the company in a statement.
As one of the world's leading premium automakers, Jaguar Land Rover's sales in China have grown robustly in recent years.
In 2013, it sold 95,237 units in China, a 30 percent increase over the previous year.
China is now the largest market for the company.
To meet rising demand, the automaker established a joint venture with China's Chery in November 2012.
The 50-50 joint venture has an assembly plant in Changshu, Jiangsu province scheduled to be operational in the fourth quarter of this year.
