Jaguar unveils Type 01 electric grand tourer with 1,030 PS
Jaguar has revealed the production version of its Type 01 grand tourer, retaining the prototype's low roofline, long hood and 23-inch wheels while adding extra doors and a softened front end. The all-electric car uses a tri-motor setup producing up to 1,030 PS and 1,365 Nm, reaching 62 mph in 3.2 seconds, and features an 850-volt architecture with a 118-kWh battery offering up to 400 miles of EPA range.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The Type 01 appears to be Jaguar's attempt to redefine its brand identity around high-performance electric vehicles rather than traditional combustion models, which could signal the direction for future flagship models. Its extreme specs and design choices suggest the company is positioning itself to compete at the top end of the EV grand tourer market against rivals, though how this translates to sales volume remains to be seen.
- Type 01 produces up to 1,030 PS and 1,365 Nm via a tri-motor electric setup
- EPA-estimated range reaches 400 miles with 350 kW fast charging adding 200 miles in 13 minutes
- Design shifts from the prototype with added doors and a softened front, while keeping dramatic proportions
