Jaguar C-X75 Concept with powered by electric motors working in conjunction with “micro gas-turbines”, which also throw in 1180 lb-ft / 1,600 Nm of torque. Jaguar claims the 6-hour-to-charge plug-in sports car has a range of 560 / 900 km miles and an Lithium-ion-only range of 68 miles with a “potential top speed” of 205 mph (330 km/h).
The four 195-horse / 145 kW electric motors are mounted at the corners (one at each wheel) and provide torque vectoring, while the turbines – which can charge the batteries or add 188 horsepower in Track mode – are located centrally in a Texalium-lined compartment. Cooling for the turbines comes from the design of the car itself, which uses integrated channels to move air to the necessary areas.
It has interior sport-lux essentials: leather, neoprene, soft-touch materials, polished and vapor-blasted aluminum, and seats mounted directly to the bulkhead “as in a single-seater racing car”.
Like the Saab and Spyker that the gear shifter, a trick switch in the overhead panel that starts the car, and a “stealth” setting that reduces ambient lighting when in track mode. Also on the “dramatic theater lighting” which lights up various areas of the car when the key fob is detected nearby, as well as certain interior areas when the car is turned on.
