Jaguar has officially unveiled the first model of an entirely new era in the brand’s history.
Marking Jaguar’s transition to an all-electric era, the Concept, named Type 00, unveils a new design language for the British marque. Unlike the concept’s two-door coupe body style, the production version of this vehicle will be launched as a four-door sedan at the end of 2025.

The name, Jaguar Type 00 Concept, combines two zeros (indicating zero emissions and the concept’s position as the first model in the new lineup) with the word “Type,” reminiscent of iconic Jaguar models like the E-Type and F-Type.
While technical specifications remain limited, Jaguar has revealed that the Type 00 Concept rides on the company’s all-new JEA platform dedicated to electric vehicles. The expected range is an impressive 770 kilometers on the WLTP cycle. Rapid charging technology enables the battery to recharge enough to provide a range of 320 kilometers in just 15 minutes.

The focal point of the Jaguar Type 00 Concept is its showcase of the brand’s new design language, which is sure to spark conversations. This new aesthetic embraces minimalism, with the vehicle’s exterior characterized by intersecting flat planes. The front end features ultra-slim LED lights and a flat rectangular frame, reminiscent of Rolls-Royce’s design language.
The rear end continues the sharp angles, featuring a grille-like element with thin horizontal slats. The taillights are distinctly separated into two distinct upper and lower strips by this “grille.” Notably, the concept does not feature a rear window.

Additional design cues include a long bonnet, a compact passenger compartment positioned towards the rear, and mini side windows, all inspired by classic Jaguar models like the 1960s E-type coupe.
The interior of this new Jaguar model reveals a surprising absence of digital screens. The brand explains that the screens are hidden within the dashboard and can be revealed with the push of a button.

Overall, while the exterior of the Jaguar Type 00 Concept is intriguing, the interior may not offer much practical value as it seems quite distant from reality.

The production version of the Jaguar Type 00 Concept will be launched at the end of 2025, with sales commencing in the first half of 2026. Two additional all-electric models, sharing the same new design language, will be introduced during this decade, with at least one of them being an SUV.
