I-type

Jaguar is on the cusp of entering a new era, one where its vehicles are not only electric but also compete in the ultimate luxury vehicle segment. Based on a recent U.S. trademark registration, the first will be a four-door sedan that we think could wear the name I-type. Jaguar has released precious few details about the new luxury sedan, but in photos of a camouflaged prototype, we can see that it will be a large car with a long hood and a steeply raked windshield. Few details have emerged about the I-type's possible powertrain, but we imagine it will offer two electric motors, all-wheel drive, and at least 600 horsepower. Otherwise, it would find itself at odds with other ultimate luxury EVs such as the Cadillac Celestiq, the Mercedes-Maybach EQS680 SUV, and the Rolls-Royce Spectre. We're also hoping to see driving range estimates in the neighborhood of 300 to 400 miles. Jaguar has let it slip that the top powertrain option will offer 986 ponies. Color us intrigued. More information will trickle out over the next year or so as the sedan marches closer to production.
