Jaguar XJ 2021 - Prj. X360 (Spy)

Se non fanno cappelle coi dettagli, questa esce bene, soprattutto da quello che si é visto del posteriore.

 

Io comunque più passa il tempo e più rivaluto la serie precedente, é un saponettone elegantissimo.

Ne ho viste un paio col 5.0 V8 e pochi km e ormai si portano via a prezzi da Golf base...

Electric Jaguar XJ scrapped as part of brand reinvention plan

Long-awaited new flagship saloon won't form part of Jaguar's transition to an EV-only brand from 2025

The long-awaited electric replacement for the Jaguar XJ has been written out of the company's long-term strategy as it looks to transition to an electric-only luxury brand from 2025.

 

According to Jaguar Land Rover's bold new Reimagine plan to transform the company's fortunes, Jaguar will undergo "a renaissance to emerge as a pure-electric luxury brand with a dramatically beautiful new portfolio of emotionally engaging designs and pioneering next-generation technologies". 

 

 

The electric XJ - first previewed nearly two years ago and spotted several times in advanced road testing – "will not form part of the line-up".

 

JLR said: "Following a thorough technology review against the exponential change in the automotive industry, we concluded that the planned XJ replacement does not fit with our vision for a reimaged Jaguar brand.

 

"We have made the tough decision that it will not form part of the line-up, as the brand looks to realise its unique potential."

 

The Reimagine strategy does suggest that the XJ name could be retained for use on one of Jaguar's new exclusively electric models. The brand will use its own bespoke EV architecture, separate from the two new platforms planned for its Land Rover sister brand, as part of a move to give the two brands disparate personalities. 

 

The news of the XJ's cancellation comes with the confirmation that JLR is "not discontinuing current products and does not plan to stop production of any present models early".

 

This suggests that the Castle Bromwich production line, which has received substantial investment in recent years in line with Jaguar's previous electrification strategy, will be used to produce other electric models. 

 

Jaguar's new EV platform will be built alongside Land Rover's MLA architecture at JLR's Solihull production facility. 

 

It's unknown whether Jaguar will seek to launch a flagship electric luxury saloon to replace the scrapped XJ, but it did note: "We are talking about vehicles which will be available from 2025 onwards, when the industry won’t necessarily be defined by the same segments."

Cancellata ufficialmente, in vista dello sviluppo di una piattaforma elettrica completamente nuova.

A quanto pare hanno deciso di far fuori tutta la gamma attuale a parte la i- type. L’intento è quello di avere entro il 2025 sono modelli BEV.

Chissà se prima o poi apparirà un modello "nudo"... Mi ha sempre incuriosito tantissimo
