JLR graduated from that school a long time ago... I seem to recall that V8 facelift D2s were fitted with SAI - supplementary air injection, air pumped into the exhaust manifold to reduce emissions

That sounds just like the pulsair system on the old V8 carb engines.
Dilute the crap going out the exhaust with clean air, to get lower % emissions.

"The repairs could include software updates as well as physical alterations, and some Range Rover Evoque models will need new tyres, a JLR spokesperson said."

jLR lost 3.4 billion in the last quarter so this cock-up is just a drop in the ocean.
