This is the new electric Jaguar 4dr GT car, and we’ve driven it.
Join Autocar as we spend time in a prototype of the new Jaguar, the production car based off of the controversial ‘Type 00’ concept.
Our drive is on a frozen Swedish lake as the Jaguar undergoes winter testing.
Matt Prior takes the wheel alongside Jaguar’s dynamics engineers to discover just how this new 1000bhp electric GT car handles.
For more on the future of Jaguar – and, indeed, everything from its past – join us over at autocar.co.uk
If you're in the comments of every video moaning about depreciation then you probably can't afford this car because people who actually buy cars like this don't really care
can't wait for when sales begin in the year 2030…..
End of line for any company going only 100% electric
Frameless doors.. niiiiice
The last Jaguar ever?
I like the color. Finally a car with a different color. Outside it looks cool. In this color. The inside looks like a cave and very confined. Hope they add bigger windows, an engine, if they go electric the racing should be high range with the use of all features.
Out of interest; can they give us a description of the target customer for this contraption?
Wait…are those rear doors meant for little people??
The operative word is "the engineers!" This is what Lotus did. Designed what they thought was 'the brand.' Nothing to do with what customers want. Utter disaster . . . Engineers are good. But not at customer interaction.
That long engineless car and still small doors, why ??
In the immortal words of Mr. Lydon: âthere's no future, no future No future for youâ
Good luck parking that anywhere in the UK short of a helipad
This will be revealed at the Festival of Speed, not late summer! Jaguar ain't gonna miss an opportunity to market it at one of the worlds biggest shows
Surprised that they have to have 150 prototype cars!
Bullshit
That A pillar is Thickkk
If Jag is planning to sell this car in the biggest car market in the World, CHINA, they will have to redesign the door handles otherwise it will be banned.
Will sell all over globe except the u.k. As theres to many panzers lovers in britain
I have seen this car without camo as I went to an invite only event last week. Car isnât aimed at traditional market for big Jags, it is for tech types, entrepreneurs and the like. It is huge and impressive with âpresenceâ. Practical it isnât. The version I saw had gull wing doors although these wonât be on production vehicles. There wonât be any hybrid or petrol versions. Price point ÂŁ100k +. How many they need to sell to return a profit, god knows. What is for certain is the image change is deliberate as the designer was there, a young bloke maybe 30 yrs old and he articulated as much. The design engineer was middle aged man with great pedigree and clearly loved Jags and really enjoyed turning concept into reality. A pity that they want to discard their clientele for the young and trendy, but it is what it is.
What a stupid car. Stupid design, stupid branding, stupid marketing. Such a shame.
When tata bought jlr it was already in chaos, although they turned range rover profitable,they weren't able to make jag successful,sales were so low so if this type 00 turned to be awful they can just change their product otherwise range rover is still be profitable to fill the gape
Just another expensive white kitchen appliance.
This looks like a masterpiece in poor packaging! What on earth do jaguar actually put in that huge bonnet out front? Is it just air? I bet it will have a tiny boot and feel super cramped in the back as well yet it's about as long as a bus! đ
Unless that camouflage is hiding a sleek, feline type Body shape, then itâs a no from me even though it was a no from me for an EV.
Idk about this car but with the weather in the northern hemisphere this year I think electric cars will come back into the fold at some point very very quickly.
Jaguaar f type is legend never die
This will be such an amazing flop đŽ
Why in the snow pointless
Can't wait to order one – first time I've ever wanted to own a Jag.
They looked through the entire Jaguar back catalogue and took things they liked, like from the XJS⌠oh f%#*đ¤Śââď¸đ¤Śââď¸
I own an F type R. I love (real) Jaguar. But is this it? Is this the only model now- I don't like anything about it- from the proportions to the electric engine. I can understand them introducing this as one new model- but not when it means disregarding all the range of real jaguar cars. What on earth are they thinking? Jaguar has such an incredible identity, and anyone who's driven one knows it doesn't feel like any other car. This… well… If i wanted an electric car (which I don't) I wouldn't be considering this freezer with wheels. Gross.
And to think đ¤ Jaguar is known for long range. My 2019 Jaguar XJL delivers a range of 570 miles. My cousin's Jaguar FX20D delivers a range of over 700 miles. And only takes 2.5 to 3.5 minutes to fill up!! EVs can't deliver this and you have to plug in and stay awhile, sitting around and watch everyone else come and go. Been alover the country with my XJL for 5 years and with absolutely no problems at all. Another 2019 Jaguar XJL with no more than 20K miles is being searched and located for me. When found, im going to go another 5 years. You can keep the EV….
Lots of folks complaining about irs length. Virtually same as the XJ
This is designed by people who are absolutely uneducated & Delusional
