Type 01, the most technologically advanced and powerful Jaguar in the brand’s history

Jaguar has unveiled Type 01, the most technologically advanced and powerful Jaguar in the brand’s history. A luxury four-door GT that never arrives unnoticed.

Type 01 inspired a celebration of contemporary culture across New York. This was a one-of-a-kind premiere, from large-scale digital displays in Times Square, DUMBO and the Lower East Side, to its dynamic arrival for an exclusive gathering at STORIED in West Chelsea, zip code 10001.

Exhuberant Proportions

Type 01 is defined by exuberant proportions, with its low roofline, long bonnet, sleek silhouette and dramatic presence. Starting from a single line and a blank sheet of paper, it is the most aerodynamic and powerful Jaguar road car. A bold, one-of-a-kind that breaks convention, with a clear lineage to the great Jaguars of the past including the E-type and XJS.

Beneath Type 01’s clean surfaces is a bespoke Jaguar Electric Architecture which offers more than 1,000PS, always with power in reserve, for a drive that is unmistakably Jaguar. Powered by an 850-volt electrical architecture, it delivers a 643-kilometre range (EPA) and adds 321 kilometres in 13 minutes using 350kW charging. Type 01 represents a new standard of power, aerodynamics and technological advancement for Jaguar.

Jaguar Type 01 world premiere

Rawdon Glover, Managing Director, Jaguar, said: “From its dramatic design to its captivating drive, Type 01 distils the essence of Jaguar into a luxury grand tourer for a new era. Type 01 is the foundation of this British brand, one that makes no compromise between design and engineering in our quest to create objects of desire, just as it was in the days of the E-type and XJS.”

At the world premiere of Type 01 at STORIED in New York, Jaguar announced acclaimed actor Florence Pugh as the inaugural brand ambassador for its new era. Embodying the originality, fearlessness and creative spirit that define Jaguar.

Pugh joined guests and friends of the brand to celebrate the global arrival of Type 01 with a night dedicated to bold creativity and artistic expression. British singer-songwriter Sienna Spiro, Best New Artist at the 2026 MTV Video Music Awards, performed an intimate set. Celebrated chef Roze Traoré conceived an exclusive culinary programme inspired by Jaguar’s fearless creative vision.

New York provided the brand with an international stage from which to celebrate originality and British innovation – a city where art, fashion, film, music and design create one of the world’s most influential centres of reinvention.

New York Premiere

At STORIED NYC, guests encountered a series of product artefacts exploring the artistry that brought the Type 01 vision to life:

  • Creative engineering: The single line penned by Jaguar designers in the beginning, hung from the ceiling in aluminium form as a symbol of a design vision made possible by creative engineering
  • Relentless dedication: The Impossible Panel embodies the unwavering commitment to bring the exuberant, dramatic body shape to production
  • Dual character: Tyre marks from a section of test track illustrate the hundreds of thousands of kilometres of testing that shaped Type 01’s dual character – composed and dynamic

This was the biggest moment since the Jaguar name was born in 1935. A fitting tribute and a powerful expression of Jaguar’s dramatic new era. A new chapter for the brand begins with Type 01. Jaguar is back.

Jaguar Type 01 centre screen
Exuberant proportions, scale and presence

Jaguar Type 01 is the first production car to follow the new exuberant modernist creative philosophy. A luxury four-door GT that never arrives unnoticed.

Dramatic proportions set Type 01 apart. Modern and sophisticated with clean surfacing, its presence is unmistakable from every angle. Distinctive proportions made possible by the new bespoke body architecture and design-enabling innovations.

The dynamic stance defines Type 01’s sleek, uninterrupted silhouette, which measures 5,235mm long by 1,403mm tall. The low profile adds drama while a short front overhang, long bonnet and extended rear overhang exude a powerful presence. The large flat bonnet which adds to the monolithic presence of Type 01 is an engineering marvel, formed from a single body pressing bonded to an innovative subframe to ensure no compromise on refinement or design.

Bold 23-inch wheels as standard (with 21-inch options available) are more than half of Type 01’s height and balance the dramatic glasshouse-to-body proportions, making the GT look like it’s in motion even when standing still. The new Jaguar monogram appears at the centre of the wheels, with patent-pending lightweight wheel inserts that are optimised for airflow. The continuous aluminium finisher that runs around the base of Type 01 grounds the car, enhancing the precision detailing.

Large Luxury Gap

The large luxury gap – the distance from the centre of the front axle to the front door – is a signature of Jaguars past and is unusual among EVs. For Type 01, it measures 898mm and makes up 17 per cent of the car’s total length – almost the same as for the E-type. The Fender Ingot, the signature side finisher, accentuates the luxury gap and grounded stance.  It is the singular place on the exterior of Type 01 for the leaper – Jaguar’s hallmark of provenance. It is laser-etched on an anodised brass-effect finisher for the exclusive ‘Curated by Jaguar’ Design Vision interpretation.

Type 01 is the most aerodynamic Jaguar ever made

Type 01 is the most aerodynamic Jaguar ever made, with a drag coefficient of 0.23Cd. Its crafted exterior surfaces are clean and modern, providing presence and drama. Designers and engineers worked together for more than 7,000 tests in the wind tunnel to optimise aerodynamic efficiency, with hidden technology and precision refinements. All while preserving the original design vision.

Type 01 pushes the boundaries of automotive manufacturing to deliver this vision. The groundbreaking aluminium bodyside features a rear quarter panel that undergoes a complex six-stage pressing process to achieve its crisp and sophisticated shape, designed to evoke the flick of a pen.

Named the Impossible Panel, it also houses an industry-first concept with frameless doors closing directly against the body. The compressed-radius hemming technique allows glass seals to be hidden, with no need for additional cosmetic trims. Complexity made simple. An approach mirrored by the clean and defined waistline, where door glass meets metal.

Andrew Wheel, Design Development Director, JLR, said: “Jaguar Type 01 is the first production car to showcase our new creative philosophy of exuberant modernism. It’s unmistakable from every angle, exquisitely crafted inside and out with dramatic proportions, innovative details and sophisticated surfaces delivering visual impact and aerodynamic performance. With Type 01, we wanted to create something where every journey is an occasion, from how it looks to how it drives and how it makes occupants feel. Type 01 will never arrive unnoticed.”

A new face of Jaguar

As the first of a new era, Type 01 showcases the confident new face of Jaguar. A reductive and sophisticated look defined by the strikethrough graphic, with the new device mark taking centre stage. The distinctive new four-light signature gives Type 01 a confident, grounded identity. The main, powerful HD LED projection headlights, which feature automatic levelling, precise beam control and welcome projection, are the slimmest ever Jaguar headlights. Measuring just 84mm high, they each have 17,000 pixels.

Type 01 preserves the purity of its design through embedded technology. At the front, Active Vanes provide a clean A-surface when closed but open when the propulsion system and brakes need cooling, while also optimising aerodynamics. On either side, flush door handles respect the clean surfaces, capable of deploying through 4mm of sheet ice. At the back, a multi-stage deployable spoiler is visible only when the situation demands it.

Holistic design language

The holistic design of Type 01 is most apparent where the Bonnet Strikethrough at the base of the windscreen breaks the boundaries between exterior and interior, visually merging the bonnet and dashboard. Understated confidence lies in the details, with a discreet model designation graphic visible here.

The rear makes a bold statement. A solid, glassless tailgate and powerful shoulders create a sense of sculpted solidity, giving Type 01 a monolithic quality. Hidden-until-lit, full-width rear lights are embedded in horizontal strikethroughs, a key visual graphic for the Jaguar brand and the result of 4,000 hours of engineering development. The central brake light is purposefully located to achieve continuity with the powerful shoulder that wraps around Type 01, as well as integrating the new device mark above the third brake light.

Alexey Andreev, Exterior Design Lead, JLR, said: ‘’The front of Type 01 is all about presence. Defined by the four-light signature, the new face of Jaguar is instantly recognisable even when approaching from a distance. Thanks to the new JEA architecture, we are able to place visual emphasis on the width of the car with the lamps, which are positioned high and to outermost corners. At the rear, clean uninterrupted surfaces highlight the sculpted shoulders and create a solid, monolithic stance which accentuates the unmistakable horizontal strikethrough, making Type 01’s departure as memorable as its arrival.’’

Tailored colour palette

Tailored to delight at every touch, the exterior colour palette shows Type 01 in the very best light, highlighting its unique geometry. Tonal and tactile.

The Type 01 colour palette lets clients express themselves: Visionary Silver, Dramatic White, Iconic Black, Compelling Blue and Refined Grey. All available in gloss finishes. Satin finishes, which accentuate the monolithic quality of Type 01 and help the eyes read every surface, are available in Modernist Blue and Mesmerising Copper.

The Design Vision edition is the truest expression of Jaguar design. The purest form of Type 01, as envisaged by the people who designed it. Finished in Visionary Silver Satin, it evokes the look of anodised metal and has been developed by Jaguar to accentuate every detail of the sophisticated surfacing. Unique 23-inch Diamond Turned wheels with Metallic Black inserts and anodised metal Fender Ingot finishers, inspired by brass and featuring laser-etched leapers, embellish the dramatic design. The finishers are the result of 500 hours of development work.

The Chromatic Moments collection

Clients seeking true individuality can opt for the Chromatic Moments collection, which celebrates artistry and personal expression with unique badging on the dash and strikethrough. Limited to 60 examples in total globally. Two exclusively developed paints: French Ultramarine and London Red, both representing the foundational chapters in Jaguar’s reimagining.

French Ultramarine is synonymous with art and cultural prestige. A pigment never seen before in automotive design, pushing the boundaries of colour technology with a satin-like, anodised style look. Inspired by a hue revered since the Renaissance and immortalised by artists such as Monet and Van Gogh, French Ultramarine embodies Jaguar’s fearless reimagining and rebellious edge.​

​London Red is a tribute to Jaguar’s British heritage, inspired by the capital city’s architectural treasures and cultural vivacity. From Victorian redbrick façades to crimson gallery walls, this shade of red, developed exclusively by Jaguar’s materiality and paint teams, celebrates artistry and innovation. Rich, theatrical and deeply evocative, London Red connects Jaguar’s storied past with its bold vision for the future, marking 90 years of creativity with a colour that commands attention.​

Dramatic, sophisticated and crafted interior

Type 01 gives every journey a sense of occasion. Its low GT seating position signals what’s to come on the road, shrinking around the driver to create a cosseting and confidence-inspiring experience.

A dramatic central spine runs the full length of the cabin, creating four individual spaces for each occupant, while opening to reveal exuberant brass-coloured stowage and cupholders. Type 01 pays attention to the finest details, the brass‑inspired finish on the central spine is repeated along the tops of the doors. Running the entire length of the cabin, these signature art pieces bear the Jaguar leaper.

Driver and passenger seats are 12-way electrically adjustable, heated and cooled, with hot stone massage effect. Split folding (50:50) rear seats are heated and cooled. Driver and passengers enjoy complete control over cabin light, day and night, beneath a panoramic glass roof with adjustable virtual blind, fitted as standard.

Driver Ergonomics

Ahead of the driver sits a distinct duotone steering wheel with brass-inspired finisher and 24-inch OLED screen that extends towards the centre of the car, combining instrumentation and intuitive control of the clean and sophisticated new Jaguar infotainment. An additional secondary smartphone-style seven-inch display sits between the driver and front passenger, placing the most common key controls, such as climate and audio operations, within instinctive easy reach. A matching seven-inch portrait display is integrated within the central spine and sits in the rear centre console for those in the back to control comfort settings.

Strikethrough details on the dashboard seamlessly merge the interior with the exterior, creating one coherently crafted form. Drama is in every detail with hidden-until-needed technologies preserving the clean lines, just as they do for the exterior. Concealed cupholders and deployable air vents, pull-out storage compartments, customisable pinstripe ambient lighting and stowage that opens to reveal moments of exuberant colour.

Full-width, full-range Panoramic Soundbar

An automotive-first, full-width, full-range Panoramic Soundbar across the base of the windscreen creates the ultimate soundstage, tuned exclusively for Type 01. Sound envelops the longitudinal interior with invisible speakers throughout the cabin combining with the Panoramic Soundbar and front seat headrest speakers to deliver immersive listening. The captivating system removes the need for row one door speakers, enabling unbroken interior surfaces, adding to the reductive design and further refining the cabin.

The designers embedded the digital ClearSight Rear View Display centrally within the Panoramic Soundbar at the base of the windscreen in place of a traditional rear-view mirror. They positioned the feed from its rear-facing camera at the same height as the door mirrors, reducing the focal adjustment that the driver has to make and improving forward visibility. Original thinkers instinctively execute.

Powered Tailgate

The powered tailgate rises to reveal over 450 litres of loadspace, expanding to 1,000 litres with rear seats folded. The split-level luggage space features front-to-rear strikethrough detailing and the hidden underfloor stowage provides additional space. Larger items can be accommodated by tilting the rear seatbacks forwards while the seats themselves are distinctive by design, with fewer seams and stitch lines for a clean, contemporary look. Essential emergency kit can be housed in the service stowage under the bonnet. There when you need. Hidden when you don’t.

Andy Hart-Barron, Interior Design Director, JLR, said: “Our holistic design philosophy translates the vehicle’s exterior presence into a distinctive interior architecture. Type 01 emphasises its dramatic longitudinal nature through the central spine – an architectural statement that creates four individual spaces. The arrangement of clean surfaces, materials and hidden-until-needed technology fuse with the low seating position to provide a cosseting and confidence-inspiring experience on both calm and spirited driving occasions.’’

Curated and contemporary colourways

The interior palette draws inspiration from travertine stone, capturing its layered tones and the play of light and shadow.

Furniture-inspired seating with minimal seams and ingot detailing create a contemporary look. Innovative Woolblend Kvadrat DuoWeave textile wraps around, encasing the leather or UltrafabricsTM NeoGrain – a lightweight material inspired by architectural interiors – and adding to the crafted feel of the cabin. The luxurious textile flooring, which includes recycled materials, wraps into the lower doors and pillar trims to create a welcoming ambience.

Three tailored interior colourways represent distinct interpretations of Jaguar.

  • The Light Story – Dusk Grey available in UltrafabricsTM NeoGrain or luxurious leather.
  • The Dark Story – Dark Oyster available in UltrafabricsTM NeoGrain or luxurious leather.
  • The Original Story – our first ‘Curated by Jaguar’ Design Vision edition in Orchid White UltrafabricsTM NeoGrain.

The exclusive Design Vision interior pairs Dusk Grey Woolblend Kvadrat DuoWeave textile with Orchid White UltrafabricsTM NeoGrain. The lightest combination available tells a story of lightness, luxury and tranquillity that pays homage to the interior of the visionary Type 00.

Further elevated by unique embroidery on the headrests: a discreet artistic interpretation of the Jaguar monogram that gradually reveals itself across the textile like a painter’s brush.

Exuberant modernism – the creative philosophy that underpins Type 01 – comes to life with colour accents concealed within hidden stowage areas. Unexpected. Surprising. Revealed only when opened, to surprise and delight.

Mary Crisp, Chief Materiality Designer, Jaguar, said: “Materials define how you feel and luxury is not always about more. Colours set the atmosphere, rich textures provide the depth and the brass-inspired finishers create the character. We have taken a tactile and architectural approach to the Type 01 interior. Luxurious textiles that delight at every touch and a palette inspired by travertine stone combine to create a cossetting and contemporary environment. The subtle play of light and shadow is complemented by moments of bold colour throughout the cabin which give even the simplest of actions, such as opening a storage area, a sense of drama and theatre.”

 

Driving Character 

  • Drives like a Jaguar: Two dynamic characters. Deep reserves of power. Refined comfort and 50:50 weight distribution. The essence of Jaguar.
  • Advanced chassis: Switchable volume air springs and twin-valve active dampers provide supreme composure and handling dynamics.
  • Uniquely characterful: Wide stance, low centre of gravity and finely tuned calibration means Type 01 shrinks around the driver and gives an unmistakably analogue feel.
  • Tri-motor set-up: A 260kW front and twin 310kW rear motors. Integrated Traction Management and fast-switching silicon carbide inverters respond in one millisecond.
  • Power where it’s needed: Advanced Torque Vectoring technology was developed first in the virtual, and then the physical, world to harness power from the tri-motor set-up.

A drive like no other

Type 01 is two distinct characters in one car, the very essence of Jaguar. Deep reserves of power and refined comfort.

Effortless power delivery from the most aerodynamically efficient, refined and powerful Jaguar ever. Type 01 shrinks around the driver, ready to carve through corners or cross continents with confidence-inspiring control and composure. Capable of accelerating from 100-180km/h in 4.0 seconds. It drives like no other EV, distilling the defining characteristics of the finest Jaguars of the past for a new generation. The software, hardware and propulsion of Type 01 are the result of more than 200,000 hours of testing and finessing.

The car’s visceral responses are built on new foundations. The new JEA body architecture, with a torsional rigidity of 51.7kN/degree, makes this Jaguar’s stiffest integrated body and battery structure ever. It provides the perfect platform for the double wishbone front and integral link rear suspension, which optimises handling, comfort and cabin refinement for a captivating drive.

Type 01 breathes with the road, just like previous Jaguars, but with a level of precision and control only possible today. The chassis features Dynamic Air Suspension with switchable volume air springs and twin-valve active dampers, adapting ride height at higher speeds to improve efficiency. The system monitors the road 500 times a second and adjusts the dampers 1,000 times a second to continuously deliver ultimate comfort and handling performance, with the suspension able to travel through the body structure to increase wheel travel without compromising the low bonnet line.

Type 01 create a low centre of gravity

The geometric fundamentals of Type 01 create a low centre of gravity – 60mm below the hip point of the driver – allowing for a more compliant suspension to deliver the two dynamic characters of Type 01. The front seats are placed low in the chassis, while the yaw centre of the car sits between the front occupants, creating the sense of the car shrinking around the driver for on-road engagement. Combined with the All-Wheel Steer system moving in-phase at high speeds, the yaw centre shifts rearwards as speed increases, providing stability and a confidence-inspiring driving experience. At lower speeds, out-of-phase rear steering of up to six degrees enhances low-speed agility and manoeuvrability. A 50:50 weight distribution ensures Type 01 maintains its composure when cornering, moving as a single entity in harmony with the road whatever the speed.

PirelliTM specially developed a bespoke tyre design that enables Type 01’s signature blend of performance and refinement. In all-season compound, the exclusive Pirelli P Zero tyres optimally fit the car’s driving character, with a large contact patch that generates impressive grip of up to 0.94g of lateral acceleration.

Perfectly weighted controls react instinctively to every input. Sure-footed rear-biased all-wheel drive traction – with tri-motor technology and Intelligent Torque Vectoring – puts power where it’s needed most. A 260kW front motor and twin 310kW rear motors combine to deliver world-class torque density of 51Nm/kg.

Electric motors

The twin rear motors are controlled by the rear EDU, itself a technological marvel. It combines two permanent magnet motors within a single compact casing to create a unique Jaguar solution that delivers Type 01’s epic performance while maximising luggage space. Exceptional thermal management, such as immersion-cooled end windings, ensures peak performance with no compromise on efficiency.

Type 01’s electric motors utilise industry-leading permanent magnet technology, achieving up to 95 per cent peak efficiency. Engineers carefully defined their front and rear gear ratios, 8.76:1 and 7.72:1 respectively, from the earliest stages of the vehicle architecture to give exceptional high-speed efficiency and refined long-distance cruising.

Fast-switching silicon carbide-powered inverters control the motors, which the team developed from learnings on-track through the double world championship-winning Jaguar TCS Racing Formula E team. These inverters convert direct current from the high voltage battery into alternating current to power the electric motors. The system continuously adapts its switching frequency between 2kHz and 20kHz, ensuring operation within its most efficient window at all times.

Type 01 instinctive responses for superior traction,

This gives Type 01 instinctive responses for superior traction, precision and control, for example when accelerating on low grip surfaces. Integrated Traction Management reduces the torque reaction time at each wheel from 100 milliseconds to as little as one millisecond utilising learnings from Jaguar TCS Racing’s high-fidelity all-wheel-drive control software.

Type 01 introduces Jaguar’s patent-pending Inverter Deactivation Technology. By continuously assessing driving conditions, the system can switch to single-axle operation by deactivating the rear motors when performance is not required, for example when cruising on the highway. The transition is imperceptible to the driver yet contributes up to 18 additional miles of range.

All Type 01’s systems are fully integrated using Bosch’s VDC 2.0 software. A predictive, next-generation stability system developed in collaboration with Jaguar engineers to enable more refined control and interventions, anticipating instability before it occurs.

Matt Becker, Vehicle Engineering Director, JLR, said: “At its best, Jaguar has always delivered two characters – performance and refinement. Type 01 marks a step-change in our technical ambitions, with innovative in-house electric propulsion technologies that combine with the car’s unique proportions, low centre of gravity and 50:50 weight distribution. Together, these create a car with refinement, performance and engagement working in perfect harmony, always with power in reserve, to deliver an experience that is truly Jaguar.’’

Power in reserve

Type 01 delivers epic and effortless performance, always with the sense of having power in reserve. Up to 757kW (1,030PS) and 1,365Nm of torque, made available to the driver across the entire speed range. Inherent to Jaguar DNA, the engineers demonstrate power in reserve at a steady cruising speed of 100km/h, where Type 01 uses just two per cent of its available power. The driver can access the rest to deliver continuous acceleration as soon as needed. The engineers further highlight the reality of power in reserve by showcasing Type 01’s rate of rolling acceleration, going from 100km/h to 180km/h in 4.0 seconds.

Jaguar Type 01 is 5,235mm long, yet has the wall-to-wall turning circle (11.5m) and low-speed manoeuvrability of a compact family car. All-Wheel Steer is the enabler, turning the rear axle up to six degrees, out-of-phase or in-phase with the front wheels, for effortless urban driving and instinctive responses and secure handling at higher speeds.

A confidence-inspiring brake pedal works in harmony with the rest of the car, with a choice of three brake regeneration settings. High, Medium and Low modes vary the level of brake inputs required, while Single Pedal mode expertly blends regenerative braking with torque control for comfortable and controlled cruising.

Grand Tourer with personality

Finely tuned calibration of the control systems finesses a uniquely characterful grand tourer. An engaging car of the digital age with an unmistakably analogue feel. Every journey can be tailored via the Jaguar Drive Control with a choice of four tuned drive modes – Jaguar, Dynamic, Efficient and Ice & Snow – with the ability to personalise the driving experience to suit driver preferences using the fifth Curated mode.

Jaguar mode reflects the core DNA of comfort and composure. For an even more controlled and instinctive drive, Dynamic mode puts up to 87 per cent of the power to the rear axle, even more of the time, stiffens the active air springs and sharpens steering and throttle inputs. All Surface Progress Control, a low-speed cruise control style feature, automatically adjusts to existing drive modes and helps the driver gain and maintain speed in slippery conditions.

Jon Darlington, Architecture Chief Engineer, Jaguar, said: “This is a capable luxury grand tourer, agile at low speeds and stable at higher speeds. A car that rotates around your hips, with confidence-inspiring steering and carefully tuned suspension which provide a wide dynamic bandwidth as you progress through the different driving modes. Type 01’s duality of character is testament to the hundreds of thousands of hours of development work by our engineering and vehicle dynamic teams on virtual simulators and proving grounds around the world.”

Electric freedom

Jaguar Type 01’s 118kWh lithium-ion battery provides an expected EPA range of up to 643 kilometres (up to 720km of WLTP range[6]). Side terminal prismatic cell technology, with unique Jaguar NMC chemistry, feature integrated longitudinal busbars to eliminate cables. All engineered to maximise energy density. For the client, this means the ability to cruise for up to 515 kilometres at highway speeds on a single charge – enough to complete more than 99.7 per cent of journeys without interruption[7].

Battery testing went far beyond the conventional standards for a luxury grand tourer. For example, Type 01 passed the immersion test where a hot battery pack is immersed 20 times in ice cold water at a one metre depth, testing how cells react to sudden temperature change. Advanced battery management software continually monitors the health of each cell, with the ability to isolate a single cell in the event of any safety issues in as little as five milliseconds. Batteries are warrantied for eight years or 100,000 miles for complete peace of mind.

Engineers have tested Type 01 around the globe.

Engineers have tested Type 01 around the globe. Jaguar’s patented thermal supervisor, ThermAssistTM, optimises energy to suit the conditions. It maximises range and minimises charging times, without any input from the driver. A new Hypervisor controller powers it and operates between extremes of -40 and +40 degrees.

ThermAssistTM continually tracks the heat management system and automatically moves thermal energy where it needs to go, between the battery, EDUs, and cabin in the most efficient way possible. For example, the electric motors generate excess heat that the system can utilize. capture to warm the cabin or battery.

The system can produce up to 3.5kW of heating power from every 1kW of energy recovered. Alternatively, it can keep the cabin cool in hot weather or harvest energy from ambient air on freezing cold mornings to help warm the battery.

ThermAssistTM also improves battery longevity and charging capability by transferring heat to keep cells at their optimum operating temperature. Active oil control valves allow precision control and efficiency of the heat management system.

Propulsion pre-conditioning prepares the battery ahead of charging, so it’s at the optimum temperature to be topped up in the most efficient way. Begin long trips confident of a full charge thanks to Storage Band Conditioning, which ensures 100 per cent charge status when you return to the vehicle, in extreme high or low ambient temperatures8.

Charging made simple

Type 01 operates on an 850-volt architecture making the charging experience effortless. With 350kW DC charging[8], add up to 321km of range in as little as 13 minutes and charge from 10-80 per cent in around 22 minutes. Intelligent split-charging capability allows Type 01 to make the most of whichever charger it’s plugged into with 250kW charging capability possible at 400 volts. An integrated on-board charger allows AC charging at up to 22kW.

Type 01 makes charging simple every step of the way, wherever the journey starts and ends. Standard dual AC charge ports on either side of Type 01, hidden behind powered charging doors, make plugging in easy wherever it’s parked around the world.

Engineered around the vision

Delivering the unique proportions, uninterrupted silhouette and technological specification of Type 01 required a new approach. More than 360 patents were filed to achieve Type 01. Creative engineering solutions to challenges never experienced in the automotive industry. Engineers learned from Jaguar TCS Racing to embed a competition development mindset to develop the innovative JEA body architecture[9]. Exclusive, pioneering and bespoke to Jaguar. It is the enabler for the distinctive dimensions that give Type 01 its unmistakable presence and captivating drive.

Solid foundations ensure the chassis can do its job. Type 01 has the strongest underpinnings of any Jaguar ever made, with 73 per cent aluminium and torsional rigidity of 51.7kN/deg. Ingenious thinking is evident in the way JEA integrates its 118kWh battery alongside a vertically stacked electric motor and gearbox. The battery pack connects with the chassis directly to increase rigidity, delivering enhancements to handling, ride comfort and cabin refinement.

Distinctive frameless doors with flush glazing close neatly against an innovative new cant rail design. A compressed-radius hemming technique results in a crisp visual transition from glass to body, without trims or visible seals. Another patented technology. A seamless waistline creates the same clean appearance where glass meets door. Both evidence of a commitment to achieving the crafted surfaces of the original vision.

Thomas Müller, Chief Technology Officer, JLR, said: “The beautiful design, creative engineering and technological capability of Jaguar Type 01 is an interconnected story. Design-enabling engineering innovations all working in perfect harmony. An unflinching commitment to our design philosophy and jaw-dropping proportions led us to our bespoke architecture, which in turn unlocks the distinctive driving character and performance that enables Type 01 to drive like no other electric car, while still being a true Jaguar.’’

Structural innovation

Underfloor batteries traditionally raise the roofline but not for Type 01. The unique body architecture allows the battery pack to extend ahead of the passenger compartment to maximise range with zero compromise on vehicle height. Specially designed Tri-Apex Node structural elements help to distribute energy in the event of a frontal impact, capable of absorbing and stopping 26 tonnes in an impact. In side impacts, the pack itself absorbs 70 per cent of all crash energy. The extra 32 cells accommodated by this innovation add up to 112 kilometres of range and 110kW.

Engineers positioned a patented structural high-voltage junction box, which houses the advanced Battery Energy Management system, between the front wheels 350mm ahead of the bulkhead, and it doubles as a strut brace for the front suspension. Designers achieve packaging efficiency while ensuring structural integrity.

They carefully position key components to optimise cabin space. The design team splits the underfloor battery to create extra vertical legroom and improve comfort for rear passengers, while maintaining the dramatic low roofline. Engineers place connectors for the 200 battery cells on the sides of the individual cells, rather than on top, to save precious millimetres of battery height. As a result, the design achieves 80 per cent of the pack height as energy – exceeding industry norms.

The Impossible Panel

Type 01 pushes new boundaries for the industry in the pressing of the aluminium body panels, to deliver the vision of Jaguar designers. The bodyside features a rear quarter panel that underwent a painstaking development using traditional skills and expertise to achieve its crisp and sophisticated surfacing.

Engineers invested more than 1,500 hours in perfecting the pressing of the panel, to deliver five different planes as three feature lines converge in a single point. Established industry wisdom dictates no more than three planes with sweeping curves and no acute angles on a single body panel, but Type 01 shatters these constraints.

Jaguar deployed age-old techniques and body pressing expertise to create The Impossible Panel. Pressed in Halewood, it requires a six-stage process and 2,500 tons of pressure from a machine four storeys high. In this way, Type 01 sets a new standard for the cold forming of aluminium in car production, with no impact on manufacturing time.

Optimising efficiency

Battery capacity and energy efficiency determine driving range. Jaguar has maximised both for Type 01.

Close collaboration between design and engineering across thousands of wind tunnel simulations resulted in complete airflow optimisation. In one example, honing millimetres from the front corner of the car. And redirecting air along the side and rear of Type 01 added 19 kilometres of range.

The dramatic proportions of Type 01, including the sculpted underfloor, unconventional contours of The Impossible Panel and vertical rear. Help manage airflow down the sides and off the rear. This creates a high-pressure zone which generates 4kg of positive aerodynamic thrust. To propel the car forwards, rather than the more conventional low pressure, which creates drag and pulls the car backwards.

An intelligent, patent-pending deployable rear spoiler optimises airflow further. Type 01 lowers by 15mm when cruising and the spoiler is active. The three-stage design is hidden at low speeds but deploys by seven degrees above 80km/h. To reduce drag on the highway and extend range by up to three miles. At speeds higher than 155km/h, the spoiler transitions to 21-degree aero-balance mode and generates up to 75kg of downforce for improved stability. While maintaining the same aerodynamic efficiency as when it’s hidden.

Hidden-until-needed Active Vanes at the front of Type 01 preserve the dramatic exterior design. While dynamically pivoting between fully closed and open to balance brake and powertrain cooling and efficiency to suit the driving environment. Through extensive testing, Active Vanes add up to 43 kilometres of range. The central vanes also allow airflow to ensure optimal charging speeds are maintained in extreme temperatures.

Fast. Powerful. Updatable.

Type 01 uses Jaguar’s latest Electrical Vehicle Architecture and embraces the principles of software-defined vehicles. Type 01 will get better with age thanks to Software Over The Air (SOTA) technology[10]. That makes this future-ready four-door GT easier and faster to update and improve than any previous Jaguar. Processing performance is optimised by an NVIDIATM-powered central cockpit controller. That is 10 times faster than previous generations. Enabling quicker responses for clients and more on-board technology systems. Software on Type 01 has completed 150,000 different tests over tens of thousands of hours.

Jaguar’s suite of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) utilises 10 external cameras. Five radars and 12 ultrasonic sensors working together to enhance safety, comfort and convenience. Powered by an NVIDIATM system that handles trillions of operations per second.  Type 01 seamlessly blends assistance systems into the driving experience, so they feel natural and unobtrusive. For example, a 3D Surround Camera integrates with the digital ClearSight Rear View Display. To provide a 360-view for navigating narrow streets. The forward-facing radar is integrated behind the raised foil finish of the Jaguar device mark. For optimum year-round ADAS performance a heated element behind the badge maintains the perfect operating temperature on cold days.
