Overview

Designed under the direction of Jaguar chief designer Ian Callum, the car is based on a modified version of the JLR D8 platform as used by the Range Rover Evoque and the Land Rover Discovery Sport.[3]

The car dimensions are: length 4,411 mm (173.7 in), width (mirrors folded) 1,984 mm (78.1 in), width (mirrors unfolded) 2,088 mm (82.2 in), height 1,649 mm (64.9 in) and wheelbase 2,681 mm (105.6 in).[4]

The car has a transverse front engine and is available in both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive versions.[4]

Stunt driver Terry Grant performed a world record “barrel roll” jump in the car for the reveal which took place at the London ExCel centre.[2]The car did a 270 degree barrel roll and traveled 15.3 meters through the air.

Engines

North American models receive two variants of the 2.0-L Ingenium engine that produces either 247 hp (184 kW; 250 PS) or 296 hp (221 kW; 300 PS), all of which are mated to a 9–speed ZF 9-HP automatic.
