> The British automaker describes the C-X16 as a "production
concept" adding that it is a "precursor to future Jaguar
sports cars that will aim to set new class benchmarks in design,
vehicle dynamics and technology".
From CS:
Jaguar did not say whether the C-X16 previews a replacement for the
current XK or as recent reports suggested, a new and smaller model
lightly inspired from the iconic E-Type that would rival the Porsche
Cayman and Boxster sports cars.
Among the few details revealed about the C-X16 is that it is designed
by the same team responsible for the XJ, XF and XK, headed of course
by Jaguar Director of Design Ian Callum, who had this to say about
the study:
"Great Jaguars have always been beautiful, innovative and have
looked firmly to the future. The finished C-X16 concept has the
potential to do these things while retaining the ability to surprise,
to excite and invigorate."
Adrian Hallmark, Global Brand Director, was quoted by the British firm
as saying: "Jaguar has set in place bold, ambitious plans for the
future. This production concept demonstrates the depth of design and
engineering ability we have within Jaguar to make these plans come to
life – I look forward to sharing this latest, exciting step at the
Frankfurt Motor Show."
