Premiere: Jaguar erlaubt einen ersten Blick in den neuen Type 01
Jaguar setzt auf einen radikalen Neustart. Erstes Modell der kommenden Ära wird eine Elektrolimousine sein. Die macht auch im Innenraum klar, dass Jaguar ein neues Kapitel aufschlagen wird.
Kronberg, October 6 - Jaguar has unveiled a sneak peek of its upcoming electric sports car, the Type 01, ahead of its official premiere on October 6 in New York. The new electric Jaguar differs significantly from its previous models, particularly in terms of interior design. Gone are the traditional knobs and switches; instead, a large display stretches behind the steering wheel, serving as both a display and control surface.
A touch screen in smartphone format is located in the center console, allowing drivers to access climate and audio functions. Additional touch-sensitive controls are found on the steering wheel, where classic steering wheel grips were previously situated.
An unusual feature of the Type 01 is its digital rearview mirror, situated at the bottom edge of the windshield, roughly at the height of the side mirrors. Another unique aspect is the exceptionally long center console, which acts as a backbone running through the entire interior and extends between the rear seating positions for the driver and passenger.
The four-door electric GT is designed to seat up to four people, with both driver and passenger reclined and surrounded by high sides. A large panoramic glass roof hovers overhead to provide additional light and space.
