Four light slits, 1,000 hp, and Formula E technology: Jaguar’s new electric luxury GT, the Type 01, is taking shape, as new prototype photos from Monaco show.

Jaguar has published new photos of what appears to be a largely production-ready prototype of the upcoming Type 01. Despite the thin camouflage film, some design details can now be seen more clearly. Four narrow daytime running light slits at the front are striking, while the actual main headlights remain hidden under the camouflage. Four doors with flush-mounted handles are also clearly visible. The Type 00 concept vehicle shown so far still appeared as a two-door model. The proportions are still impressive: The purely electrically powered luxury GT measures around 5.20 meters in length, offers a wheelbase of more than three meters and rolls on mighty 23-inch wheels.

According to the manufacturer, the "0" in the Jaguar Type 01 stands for the electric drive with zero local emissions, while the "1" also marks the start of a new Jaguar generation. In terms of technology, the Brits are promising a three-motor all-wheel drive with more than 735 kW/1,000 hp and over 1,300 Newton meters of torque. In addition, technology know-how from Jaguar TCS Racing's Formula E involvement is to be incorporated, for example in the areas of recuperation and fast charging capability.

Thanks to the 800-volt architecture, charging capacities of up to 350 kW should be possible, allowing energy for a range of more than 300 kilometers (approx. 186 mi) to be recharged in 15 minutes. Battery capacities of around 120 kWh and ranges of over 700 kilometers (approx. 435 mi) are also expected. The Type 01 is expected to come onto the market from 2027 at prices well in excess of 100,000 euros (approx. USD 117,000).
