The Jaguar Type 00 concept sets a new standard for the brand, showcasing an electric vehicle that merges artistic design, advanced technology, and impressive performance. As Jaguar transitions to an all-electric future, the Type 00 previews the innovations that will define its upcoming lineup. Here are five defining aspects of the Type 00 that highlight its exceptional style, range, and forward-thinking approach.
- Visionary Design That Defies EV Conventions
The Jaguar Type 00’s dramatic silhouette challenges the norms of electric vehicle design. With its long bonnet, fastback profile, and bold 23-inch alloy wheels, the vehicle radiates elegance and confidence. Key design highlights include:
- A sculptural, glassless tailgate.
- Panoramic body-harmonized glazing for a seamless aesthetic.
- Unique Miami Pink and London Blue colour options, each inspired by artistic and historical motifs.
These elements combine to create a vehicle that’s unmistakably Jaguar—an embodiment of the brand’s new "Exuberant Modernism" philosophy.
- Exceptional Range and Rapid Charging
Jaguar’s dedication to cutting-edge electric technology is evident in the Type 00’s projected performance. While a concept vehicle, its influence on future Jaguar EVs is clear:
- Target Range: Up to 770 km (478 miles) WLTP or 430 miles (692 km) EPA on a single charge.
- Rapid Charging: Gain up to 321 km (200 miles) of range in just 15 minutes with advanced fast-charging technology.
These capabilities make Jaguar’s electric future not just beautiful but highly practical for long-distance journeys.
- Artistic Interior with Bespoke Materials
Inside the Type 00, Jaguar redefines luxury with a cabin that feels more like an art gallery than a traditional car interior. Key features include:
- A 3.2m-long brass spine running through the cabin.
- Soothing travertine stone elements serving as structural and decorative pieces.
- Textiles inspired by handwoven yarns, offering a tactile, artisanal feel.
The interior also boasts advanced technology, such as deployable screens and hidden stowage areas, ensuring that every detail enhances the experience of modern luxury.
- Dedicated Electric Architecture for Enhanced Driving
At the core of the Type 00 is Jaguar’s unique Jaguar Electric Architecture (JEA), designed to maximize performance, efficiency, and comfort. This innovative platform provides:
- Superior handling and ride comfort.
- Enhanced aerodynamics through its streamlined design.
- Support for the latest electrification technologies, ensuring a smooth and captivating driving experience.
JEA represents a fresh start for Jaguar, built to create vehicles that stand out in an increasingly homogenous EV market.

The Type 00 is more than a car—it’s a statement. With its geometric "device mark" emblem, deployable cameras, and immersive lighting, it exemplifies Jaguar’s daring approach to design. Additionally, its sensory-focused cabin customization offers:
- Prism case technology for mood tailoring.
- Bespoke scents and ambient lighting that respond to your chosen interior setting.
By blending artistry and functionality, the Type 00 underscores Jaguar’s commitment to crafting vehicles that inspire and captivate.
