11 January 2015: Jaguar has today confirmed it
will introduce an all-new model to the Jaguar line-up, to go
on-sale in 2016, named the Jaguar F-PACE.
Ian Callum, Director of Design, Jaguar, commented: "We received
such an overwhelmingly positive response to the C-X17 concept car
last year that we just had to make it a reality.
"The Jaguar F-PACE, inspired by the F-TYPE, represents a
perfectly judged balance of performance, style and practicality. It
offers a unique combination of Jaguar sports car inspired exterior
design, fused beautifully with a thoroughly practical and spacious
luxury interior. The F-PACE is our family sports car."
The Jaguar F-PACE couples class-leading interior space and
exceptional on-road dynamics with five-seat usability to produce a
true performance crossover. It will encapsulate everything that
Jaguar stands for: beautiful design, precise handling, a supple
ride, luxurious interior finishes and cutting-edge technology.
Speaking in Detroit, Andy Goss, Jaguar Land Rover Global Sales
Director said: "In 2015 we will celebrate Jaguar's 80th year. We
have started it by announcing our first performance crossover which
we consider to be the ultimate practical sports car - a car that
builds on the marque's founding ideals of Grace, Pace and Space to
become one of the most innovative Jaguars we've ever developed. The
F-PACE has now begun its engineering and development testing
programme ahead of the new model going on sale in 2016."
The F-PACE will be manufactured in Solihull, UK.
Further details of Jaguar's all-new F-PACE will be revealed
later this year - #FPACE
