The new Jaguar flagship follows the next generation of hybrid supercars like the upcoming McLaren P11, Ferrari Enzo 2.0 and Porsche 918 by incorporating a petrol engine with an electric motor.
The Jaguar C-X75 will feature a feeble 1.6-litre turbocharged inline-four (replacing the dual jet turbines that featured on the 2010 concept) capable of an unbelievable 500bhp. The twin-charged powertrain will employ both a turbo and a supercharger. What’s more interesting is the engine will rev up to 10,000 RPM. 500bhp from a 1.6-litre that revs up to 10,000rpm. Did Jaguar just build a future F1 engine?Nonetheless, the C-X75 is the first Jaguar to utilise a carbon fibre-intensive structure, created together with the Williams F1 team. Jaguar estimate the C-X75 to hit a maximum of 321km/h, with a sub three second century sprint. The mid-engine powertrain charges a liquid-cooled, 600-volt battery pack weighing 200kg. The battery drives a pair of electric motors on the front and rear axle and can run in full EV mode at speeds of up to 64km/h up to 60km.
Jaguar is co-developing the C-X75 with Williams, for a production run of only 200 pieces, with first deliveries to start around 2014. The price range is estimated to be between £700,000 to £900,000 (S$1.37 to S$1.77) million.
