This looks interesting. Its 3/4 xj220 and 1/4 ugly.
That being said, 3/4 xj220 means it would probably be one of the 5 best looking cars on the road if it were ever built.
What say you? whats your take on this? does anyone have any more information on this?

From the headlights back it's a really nice looking car but the front looks like a Lotus one day after a collagen lip injection

How about the turbine motors? whats everyones take on that?
I wonder what the advantage of using turbines is over a conventional motor is.

I'm sorry but as far as I'm concerned this is not a direction I would like to see Jaguar taking.

You can burn pretty much anything in a turbine engine and they're more efficient because once they spool up, you can run them at the optimum settings.

I think it looks nice, but conceptually I think customers are more eager for a modern day E-Type than a mid-engine sports car.

I'll take one, possibly in a dark color, can't decide now.

I think its cool, decently light, obviously designed for performance intent, conceptually seems to be smartly executed....
Feasible performance car of the future for sure...

For directly powering wheels in road cars, shite. For powering generators to charge batteries/power electric motors, perfect.

I like the looks, and if the performance is true to its words.. well that is pretty awesome.

It looks horrible. The XJ220 was far better.
If it ever does reach production, should we expect a v6 and 2wd?

NIce, i Loled :D
I kinda of reminds me of that jay Leno prototype that also runs with a turbine.
I also wish they could put their efforts in a modern day E-Type.

It looks...Old.
Or at least older than Jaguar probably want to appear to their clientele. Perhaps it's too round or something, I don't know.
Kind of looks a bit like Bibendum's supercar.

More I think about this, there is certainly some stylistic similarity to XJ-13...

Yes I am agree with you and the design is really good. The concept is pleasing to eyes.
