Jaguar Land Rover Classic presented an electric-powered Jaguar E-Type at the Jaguar Land Rover Tech Fest, which was held from 8th to 10th September in London, U.K. The car, known as E-Type Zero, has been restored and converted at Jaguar Land Rover Classic Works in Coventry, not far from where the E-Type was born.
The E-Type Zero vehicle is a restored Series 1.5 Roadster. It's totally original in specification, apart from its 21st century state-of-the-art powertrain and modified instrumentation and facia - although these are also inspired by the original E-Type. LED head lights are also used to achieve energy efficiency. Again, they adopt the styling theme of the original Series 1 E-Type.
The Jaguar E-Type Zero not only drives and looks like an E-Type, it also offers outstanding performance. It's quicker than an original E-type and sprints from 0-100km/h in 5.5 seconds, about one second quicker than a Series 1 E-Type. An electric powertrain developing 220kW has been specially designed for the E-Type Zero. Its lithium-ion battery pack has the same dimensions, and similar weight, to the XK six-cylinder engine used in the original E-Type.
