Jaguar Unveils Type 01 EV

Jaguar unveiled the Type 01, a production electric four-door grand tourer and the first model in its relaunch. The car arrives as Jaguar repositions itself as an all-electric luxury brand after a period with no new cars on sale. Older models had left production, and a planned electric sedan was canceled. The launch follows Jaguar’s controversial 2024 rebrand, whose car-free campaign and new visual identity drew social-media criticism before the Type 00 concept appeared. Jaguar says the Type 01 will attract a new generation of customers and begin an exciting new era. The car is expected to start at about $130,000 in North America. Orders are expected to open in early 2027, with shipments beginning later that year.
