The Jaguar F-Type Has Reached The End Of The Line
The Jaguar F-Type Has Reached The End Of The Line-September 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:53

Two 2024 Jaguar F-Type ZP Editions in blue and silver.

After about , it’s just about the end of the road for – for real now. , the ZP Edition, will be the final sportscar ever. After all, is about to reinvent itself as an all-electric brand.

Jag will build just 150 examples of the ZP Edition as both a coupe and convertible and before you ask, there is some heritage behind the name. It’s pretty inside baseball, but the ZP moniker references early race cars created under the project name “ZP.” Unfortunately for all of us, The ZP Edition is mechanically identical to the R75 model. Well, I suppose that isn’t really a bad thing. I mean, it comes with that pumps out 575 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque through an eight-speed automatic transmission and . This thing is still a screamer.

The ZP Edition is all about looks. Buyers will have their choice of two liveries – Oulton Blue with a Mars Red and Ebony interior and Crystal Grey Gloss with a Navy Blue and Ebony interior. Jaguar says neither of these paint colors has been offered on . Both color options also feature a rather corny Porcelain White Gloss hand-painted racing roundel on the doors among other trim accents. It’s all apparently a reference to the original ZP E-Types. The cars will also come with unique 20-inch forged wheels. All of the design details are being created by S.

“F-Type has captivated sports car drivers for more than a decade, just as the E-Type did five decades before it,” Rawdon Glover, Jaguar’s Managing Director, . “The ZP Edition is the ultimate celebration of that lineage, joining an illustrious roster of heritage-inspired collector’s editions including the 2015 Project 7 and 2020 Heritage 60 Edition.”

So, while the ZP Edition looks to Jaguar’s past, . Right now, it sells just one electric vehicle, , and it hasn’t really shown any . What comes next is really anyone’s guess, so I suppose we should just enjoy what it’s got right now, a very pretty sports car with a meatball painted on the door.

The State Of Two-Door Hatchbacks In 2021 America Is Very Weird
I’ve always liked the body style known as the two-door hatchback, or as it’s often and confusingly known, the three-door. One of those “doors” is a hatch not really meant for people, but whatever — I still like them. You know the type of car I mean. These were...
