Big news from Jaguar

JAGUAR has confirmed it will introduce an all-new model to the Jaguar line-up to go on sale in 2016.

Named the Jaguar F-PACE, it couples class-leading interior space and exceptional on-road dynamics with five-seat usability to produce a true performance crossover.

It will encapsulate everything that Jaguar stands for – beautiful design, precise handling, a supple ride, luxurious interior finishes and cutting-edge technology.

Ian Callum, Director of Design, Jaguar, stated:

“We received such an overwhelmingly positive response to the C-X17 concept car last year that we just had to make it a reality.

“The Jaguar F-PACE, inspired by the F-TYPE, represents a perfectly judged balance of performance, style and practicality. It offers a unique combination of Jaguar sports car inspired exterior design, fused beautifully with a thoroughly practical and spacious luxury interior. The F-PACE is our family sports car.

?

Andy Goss, Jaguar Land Rover Global Sales Director, added:

“In 2015 we will celebrate Jaguar’s 80th year.

“We have started it by announcing our first performance crossover which we consider to be the ultimate practical sports car – a car that builds on the marque’s founding ideals of Grace, Pace and Space to become one of the most innovative Jaguars we’ve ever developed.

“The F-PACE has now begun its engineering and development testing programme ahead of the new model going on sale in 2016.

The F-PACE will be manufactured in Solihull in the UK.
