JAGUAR F-TYPE 75 REVEALED AS NOD TO 75TH ANNIVERSARY OF JAGUAR SPOTS CARS

“For 75 years Jaguar has been renowned for producing extraordinary sports cars that deliver performance, agility and maximum driver reward. The F-TYPE special editions hold true to these principles, adding unique interior and exterior design details to celebrate this lineage before Jaguar becomes an all-electric brand from 2025.” Matthew Beaven - JLR Chief Design Engineer. To celebrate the milestone, the British automaker has released the final year model of the F-Type as we know it with the release of a special edition that gives a nod to the 75 years of Jaguar sports cars in the form of the F-Type 75 and F-Type R 75. These will be the last sports-oriented cars from the brand before full electrification planned from 2025.

These models designated R 75 and 75 will feature Jaguar’s faithful supercharged 5.0-litre V8 engine. Visually the front-engine two-seater is easily identifiable as an F-Type with super-slim LED headlights,‘Calligraphy’ J signature daytime running lights, a ‘liquid metal’ surfacing on the clamshell bonnet with unique and discreet badges on the front fenders. The car features model-specific gloss black 20-inch wheels as standard in five-spoke- and gloss black diamond-turned 10-spoke designs respectively. The 300 hp 4-cylinder models feature a single, central exhaust while the 450 hp F-Type 75 and 575 hp F-Type R 75 V8s have R-branded quad exhausts. The 4-banger is rear-wheel drive and can hit 100 km/h in a little over 5.6-seconds and has a top speed of 250 km/h. The F-Type 75 has 450 hp with 580 Nm and can hit 100 km/h in a smidge over 4.5-seconds and has a top speed of 285 km/h, and the F-Type R 75 that has 575 hp and 700 Nm hits 100 km/h in about 3.5-seconds with a top speed of 300 km/h. The two big cars are AWD, the biggest is only AWD while the mid V8 can be had in manual if optioned. 

Inside the Jaguars its business as usual, great build quality with composite materials and a spattering of luxury. Features include a 12.3-inch reconfigurable Interactive Driver Display, deployable centre air vents, a unique silhouette motif on the Engine Spin centre console finisher, stainless steel tread plates and an optional Interior Black Pack can be had.
