The Jaguar C-X75 is a state of the art hybrid supercar but with the efficiency of a low emissions city car. The C-X75 can hit 160km/h from standstill in less than six seconds before maxing out at a top speed of 354km/h.
Its 502bhp, 1.6-litre turbocharged and supercharged four-cylinder engine - developed in collaboration with the Williams F1 team - is one of the world's highest specific power output powerplants at 313bhp per litre. The C-X75's two electric motors add a further 390bhp, for a combined output in excess of 850bhp.
Jaguar has been a partner to Team Sky since the team's very first season of racing in 2010. Moreover, the team is supported in their year-round racing and training activities by a fleet of Jaguar XF Sportbrakes.
