The Legendary Jaguar E Type is Back! In 2020 it Will be Electric!
A brief look at Jaguar E-Type Zero and the royal wedding
Perhaps in connection with this car you recall the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. That is where luxurious Jaguar E Type Zero has recently been prominently featured. But memories are just memories, but soon we will be able to enjoy this model in an up-to-date, more perfect form. Jaguar Classic confirmed that it is to begin to restore and convert its legendary two-seat roadster to be driven by electrical energy. Its supply is projected for summer of 2020.
We know what the new features of this luxury vehicle will be
The electric concept of Jaguar E-Type will be powered by a lithium-ion battery with the power of 40 kWh, which will enable a driving range of 275 km. The rear axle will be driven by an electric motor of 295 horsepower. The luxury car will be able to accelerate from zero to 100km/h in 4.5 seconds. Although the battery replaces the conventional 6-degree manual gearbox, E-type, it is expected that the suspension, nor brakes will be altered, because Jaguar wishes to maintain the original weight distribution to the front and rear axles. However, there will be some changes and in addition to the powertrain, the Jaguar E-Type Zero will for example have luxurious LED lights and the dashboard has been updated with digital instrumentation.
Awards and the price tag
This motoring “dandy” clearly deserves your attention. Enzo Ferrari designated it as “the most beautiful car in the world” and we agree with him.
The price has not yet been published but it can be assumed that it will have roughly the same value as the type with a classic engine. And that means that it will not be a very cheap issue.
