Jaguar Type 00 EV: Price, Specs, Availability | EUROtoday

One of the many criticisms leveled at Jaguar within the firestorm ignited by its rebrand final month was that whereas it revealed a brand new logotype and a brief movie of eight conspicuously various fashions clad in vibrant couture rising from a yellow escalator right into a lilac lunar panorama, it didn’t even trace at a automotive.

Despite being busy getting ready for presidency, Elon Musk discovered time to answer to Jaguar on X, combatively asking: “Do you sell cars?”

Well, after the information leaked earlier right now, Jaguar has now formally revealed the primary automotive of its new full-electric period at Art Miami, however it will likely be worrying that the world’s curiosity on this area of interest, hitherto struggling British model has been exhausted by the row over the supposed “wokeness” of its reinvention, the ensuing barrage of “vile hatred and intolerance” on-line directed at each the marketing campaign and, deplorably, Jaguar workers, and its obvious abandonment of virtually each facet of its 90-year historical past, together with its growing old, traditionalist consumer base.

According to Rawdon Glover, managing director at Jaguar, clients for the brand new EVs shall be youthful, extra prosperous, city, independently minded, inventive, and wishing to “carve their own path.” Tellingly, Glover provides that the model “needs to build a relationship with almost an entirely new client base.”

To mark the ire and miss the automotive can be a disgrace, as a result of no matter you consider Type 00 (say “zero-zero”), it delivers on the temporary given by JLR’s chief inventive officer Gerry McGovern 4 years in the past to 4 competing design groups: to provide one thing not solely in contrast to any earlier Jaguar, however in contrast to anything on the highway.
