“People buy cars for their design and interior. Powertrain is about 13th on the list,” said Rawdon Glover, Jaguar’s managing director.

“If we make this a technical or price competition [against China], I’m not sure we can play to win." Instead, "sophistication in design" is the answer.

Type 00 | Image: Jaguar Jaguar’s new ethos is “copy nothing,” and the first concept car of its new era is trying to deliver. The leaks earlier were accurate, with the Type 00 two-door coupe presenting a long hood that leads to a low roof and fastback rear profile that foregoes any rear window. Jaguar chief creative officer Gerry McGovern said in a presentation that “when Jaguar was at its best, it threw away the design rulebook and created E-Type and the XJS...objects of desire.” This car is supposed to be another step in that direction.

Four new design elements are “a reimagining that recaptures the essence of Jaguar" JLR has adapted its 90-year-old Jaguar brand for “the second century”, with four new design elements that are called “symbols of change” for the marque. The British car maker last week began testing prototypes of its four-door GT model on public roads, the first of three models to launch in 2026, and plans to reveal a design prototype during December’s Miami Art Week which will set the tone for the brand’s complete electric rebirth. The first is a ‘Device Mark’, in effect a new font (called Exuberant) in which the word ‘Jaguar’ will be displayed.  The second is a 16-bar grid of horizontal stripes called a ‘Strike Through’, which will become both a background and a “universally

The electric XJ was first previewed by the brand in 2019 and was spotted several times road testing in the advanced stages of its development. But Jaguar called time on the model just two years later “following a thorough technology review against the exponential change in the automotive industry” because the car “does not fit with our vision for a reimaged Jaguar brand”. Jaguar never released

Even though it's still camouflaged, Jaguar's first high-end EV already looks promising.

Prototype for Jaguar's £100k Taycan rival gives a long-awaited first look at the firm's new design language The first car of Jaguar’s new era has finally broken cover as it begins road testing for a 2026 launch, just two weeks before the firm unveils a concept that will set the tone for the design of all its upcoming models. The first all-new Jaguar since the I-Pace was launched in early 2018, this striking four-door GT is the first of three upcoming electric cars due to arrive by the end of the decade atop a new brand-specific, EV-only platform dubbed JEA. The other two EVs are a large luxury saloon and an SUV. Technical details remain closely guarded, save for what the company has already confirmed: it will pack north of 575bhp, have a range

The beleaguered British brand's relaunch will kick off with a four-door ultra-luxurious grand touring sedan.

However, it was a controlled kind of chest swelling, not quite on the level of the Rule Britannia, front-page excitement that greeted the BMC Mini back in 1959, the Jaguar XJ in 1968 or the original Range Rover in 1970.

Jaguar's move to a fully-electrified brand hasn't been easy—now we know why.

I-Pace acclerated the development of Jaguar's new EVs, but doesn't align with them visually MD Rawdon Glover tells all about the brand's impending shift upmarket It’s already on the record that Rawdon Glover, Jaguar’s managing director, has one of the toughest automotive jobs on the planet. His immediate task is to kill off (“sunset”) the current, mostly combustion-engine range of traditional Jaguar models and replace it from 2026 with a radical, three-tier EV line-up that lifts pricing into the realms of Bentley. Speaking to Autocar, Glover – 11 years at Jaguar, with previous Volkswagen Group experience – is undaunted by the size of the challenge. The range will begin with a Porsche Taycan-busting GT – previewed by a concept arriving in December – followed by

Jaguar is still committed to going all-electric. But while we wait for its new EVs to launch, there's going to be a weird gap.

Jaguar's next-gen models will be almost entirely disparate from its previous cars Brit brand sticks with plan to go all-electric and is months away from scrapping entire line-up Jaguar is sticking with its plan to go all-electric from next year despite unsteady EV demand – and it is just months from scrapping its entire existing line-up and revealing a crucial concept car that will set the tone for its new era. Jaguar’s next-generation models will be unrelated – visually, technically and in their positioning – to the cars that have come before. So far, the brand has described them as only a “copy of nothing” when pressed for clues about how they might look. But all the questions will be answered in December with the reveal of a radical new

When Jaguar and Land Rover (JLR) revealed that they were embarking on an ambitious and expensive rebranding campaign last year, the firm made it clear that it was treating this as an all-or-nothing play. The program saw the company not only shorten its name to JLR, but also split Land Rover’s models into individual brands. One other item that flew below the radar up until now is the full electrification of Jaguar which will also simultaneously push the brand upmarket as JLR attempts to compete with Bentley and Porsche.  A new report suggests that Jaguar will start its EV revolution ...

JLR is a subsidiary of India’s Tata Motors without an EV platform of its own, so it’s going to get one from China's Chery.

To make matters worse, Jaguar hasn’t figured out a fix for the problem yet.

Jaguar is recalling a small number of earlier-build I-Pace electric SUVs due to "multiple technical issues" that elevate the risk of battery fires. Just 258 U.S. vehicles made between March 1, 2018 and May 31, 2018 (all 2019 models) are included in the recall.
