Jaguar has decided to make a complete transformation. After changing the logo with which the manufacturer returns to the founder’s original vision “Jaguar should not be a copy of anything”, now the British brand has presented the Type 00. With this car, Jaguar announces the introduction of the next generation of Jaguar that will once again capture the spirit and essence of the brand at its best.
The prefix “Type” is a link to the brand’s tradition and to models such as the pioneering E-type. The first zero in the concept’s name refers to zero exhaust emissions, while the second zero represents its status as a new line car.
The car, with its long bonnet design, wide roof line, fastback profile and sloping rear end, is the opposite of anything we have seen on all-electric cars so far. All this is achieved thanks to the unique JEA (Jaguar Electrical Architecture) platform. The aim was for the latest electrification technologies and design to make future cars stand out in the electric vehicle market.
A large butterfly door and tailgate reveal a modern cabin with three hand-finished brass lines running the length of the interior, with a central 3.2m-long brass strip separating a pair of floating instrument panels.
Jaguar hasn’t released any performance information, but what we do know is that the first production Jaguar of the new generation will be a four-door GT, which will hit the market late next year. It should have a range of up to 770km on a single charge, and a 15-minute charge on a fast charger will give it a range of up to 321km.
More information coming soon.
