“It was time for a much bolder change of direction”

The Type 01 features 12-way electrically adjustable seats, a 24-inch OLED driver display, and a 7-inch portrait screen.
“The cabin is replete with tech-forward fabrics”

Jaguar engineers built the Type 01 from scratch with a new platform, requiring a 50/50 weight distribution and stiffest structure.
“We realized it actually didn’t work on any of our architectures”
Market Response
Over 50,000 people have registered interest in the Type 01, with 78 percent being new Jaguar customers.
“Great design should have the confidence to polarize”
Production Timeline
First deliveries of the Type 01 are expected in the second half of 2027, with orders opening early in the year.
