Elektrokatze: Sie sind zurück: Type 01 leitet den Neustart für Jaguar ein

Jaguar is making a comeback after months of being absent from the market with the introduction of the production version of the Type 00 concept car. The British manufacturer showcased the final design of the study at a presentation in New York, which has been generating excitement and controversy since its radical design caught the attention of many fans.

The Type 01, as it will be officially named, is expected to be available in the market for a price starting at 165,000 Euros, with orders possible from the beginning of 2027.

The luxurious luxury sedan, measuring around 5.30 meters, will maintain its distinctive design featuring a long hood, flat roof, and angled rear. However, in the series production, it will become a four-door vehicle. Despite the smaller size, Jaguar promises ample space in the backseat, with a wheelbase of 3.20 meters. The interior will feature a radically reduced cockpit with extensive digital controls, aiming to differentiate itself from some Chinese newcomers through its craftsmanship and material selection.

Currently Jaguar's strongest model with 1,030 PS, the Type 01 will be powered by an 850-volt architecture with a 118 kWh battery pack for ranges exceeding 700 kilometers and charging capabilities of 350 kW. The batteries will power two motors, delivering a top speed of 757 kW (1,030 PS) and 1,365 Nm, making the Type 01 the strongest model in Jaguar's history. It can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.2 seconds and reach a top speed of approximately 260 km/h.

After a year without selling any cars, the Type 01 marks the much-awaited restart of Jaguar. However, it will not be alone for long, as Jaguar hints at the possibility of a second body variant to offer customers more choice and cater to the significantly reduced dealership network. While the company did not provide further details, the automotive world anticipates a potential SUV addition to the lineup.
