The Future Of Jaguar

Jaguar C-X17
We’re having a bit of a Jaguar love-in at the moment on DriveWrite and who can blame us? On these pages you will find a variety of reviews but we must also look to the future. Above is the C-X17 sports crossover vehicle that Jaguar will hopefully launch in 2016. The word is that it will cost from about £30k but we would think maybe a little more. Whatever - we want it already. This is what Jaguar are saying about this great looking car:

‘C-X17 breaks with convention to drive the Jaguar brand into an entirely new direction. This exciting sports crossover concept vehicle extends Jaguar’s portfolio by entering the fastest growing segment in the global automotive market. Based on Jaguar’s all-new aluminium monocoque architecture, C-X17 complements the existing Jaguar range and provides a vision of the potential for the brand with its technical innovation and its progressive, transformative design. With its impeccable proportions, purity of form and beautiful lines,

C-X17 is every inch a Jaguar. Sleek and sporting, it offers luxurious sophistication with enhanced practicality as well as, of course, an elevated driving position.

C-X17 is designed to enhance overall usability and provides an inviting interior design that is as good for the driver as it is for the family. Dynamic, sporty and driver focused, C-X17 is also an incredibly practical vehicle.

Inside, it meets the demands of active families who need a second seating row and luggage space that is supported by intelligent interior versatility and capacity. C-X17 combines the refinement and dynamics of saloon car-like handling with superb all-weather, all-road performance thanks to all-wheel drive and increased ground clearance.

Delivering superior car-like driving dynamics and agility, Jaguar’s all-new intelligent aluminium architecture not only forms the platform for C-X17, it also provides the foundation on which an entire new, exciting range of Jaguar vehicles will be built. High-strength and aluminium-intensive, the highly advanced new aluminium monocoque architecture is made from nearly 100% recycled materials for superb handling and performance.'
