Jaguar unveils Type 00 EV

Jaguar Type 00 (Type Zero Zero) is an EV concept with bold forms to inspire future Jaguars.

It features a long bonnet, sweeping roofline, fastback profile, boat tail, and 23-inch alloy wheels.

Jaguar’s first reimagined production car will be an electric four-door GT built in the United Kingdom and shown in late 2025.

Type 00 showcases Jaguar’s new identity and has flush surfaces, a glassless rear tailgate and panoramic roof with body-harmonised glazing.

It’s presented in Miami Pink and London Blue, and Jaguar’s global re-emergence at Miami Art Week (December 4-8) emphasises its purpose as an advocate for art, in a celebration of British artists and creativity, says the brand.

The new model will use Jaguar Electric Architecture (JEA) and target a range of up to 770km (WLTP), adding 321km of charge in 15 minutes.

“The magic of Jaguar is close to my heart – an original British luxury brand unmatched in its heritage, artistry and emotional magnetism,” says JLR chief executive Adrian Mardell.

“That’s the Jaguar we are recapturing and we will create the same sense of awe that surrounded iconic models like the E-type,” he says.

“Our journey is already underway, guided by our original ethos to Copy Nothing – and the results will be spectacular.”

Jaguar managing director Rawdon Glover says the brand has forged a “fearlessly creative new character for Jaguar that is true to the DNA of the brand but future-facing, relevant and one that really stands out”.

The ‘Type’ prefix is a link to models like the pioneering E-type, while the first zero references zero tailpipe emissions and the second represents its status as car zero in jaguar’s new lineage.

Jaguar’s new creative philosophy “Exuberant Modernism” is founded on three fundamental characteristics, represented in both a new artistic visual identity and the way it builds relationships with clients.

Jaguar says it will have exclusive brand stores for clients around the world, the first in Paris.

A pair of butterfly doors and ‘pantograph’ tailgate open to reveal a modernist interior that shares its exuberant proportions with the exterior.

The cabin features three hand-finished brass lines which run the length of the interior, with a central 3.2m-long brass spine that splits a pair of floating instrument panels.

Occupants can tailor the cabin to suit their mood using the Prism case behind a powered door on the bodyside.
