The move to BEV appliances will either end Jaguar, or they will morph into a shadow of their former selves with cookie cutter SUVs and slide into obscurity. I'm hoping a biofuel renaissance will catch the fall of interesting and fun cars before it's too late.

I saved a Jaguar! Bought a F Type V8 P575 and it will remain in my possession until my toes curl up!

your toes will not curl up for a very very long time, enjoy your success sir, looking for one myself, was choosing between a merc amg c63s, lexus Lc 500, PORSCHE Cayman S, all around the same price range for a 2016 but this Jag feels like a James Bond car, took one for a test drive 4 weeks ago and i was blown away, im scared about maintenance issues (being an audi a7 owner) but hopefully if i look after it , itl be ok lol

A very good video and I wholeheartedly agree! A Jaguar should purrrrr if it's a luxury saloon, or ROAR if it's a sports car. It seems, just recently, a few manufacturers are pulling back from their pure EV future plans, and I hope Jaguar does too. Mercedes have recently confirmed the new CL63 will be powered by the 4 litre Twin Turbo V8, as sales of the C63 saloon and estate with a 4-cylinder hybrid have been much lower than their predecessors. It'll be a sad day indeed when there are no more petrol engine Jaguars to stir the soul.

Thought-provoking watch! Very enjoyable and liked seeing a glimpse of some Jaaaaaaags at the Cov Motofest too!

I own a Jag XKR- R X150 and I love getting in it and firing it up! Jaguar are in real trouble if they do not get the next stage in their re brand correct. All those great cars you mentioned including the Project 7, Project 8, XJR-575 and the XKR-S intend to be forgotten and pushed to one side by jaguar which is beyond ridiculous. The F-type could still be developed and new XJ and XK would be more than logical. We'll just have to wait and see what they do and hope it is something as amazing as what came before, somehow I doubt that will be the case though.

Great video. Have a V6S AWD tuned to 475hp on 93 octane with oem forged wheels...it is truly epic.

“Save A Jaguar”. - Felt the same as yourself and hence 144 days ago put one on the drive. F-Type R in BRG. Loving every moment I slide behind the perfectly sized tactile delight of heated leather enrobed steering wheel. Placing my rump between the sublime yet effective side cushions of the firm yet supportive seat before reclining to rest my back against a truly effective motor driven lumber support, my shoulders feeling the support from the chairs upper wings as my head rests against the firm yet cushioned headrest………All Day Comfortable 👌……….Did we say that it’s heated and cooled ? The only disappointment I’ve found is the face lifted models are less rowdy at lower rpm compared with the first generation.☹️. But on the upside the ride quality and handling balance are perfect for a daily driver across fen roads and should allow European touring in search of great driving roads to be pure pleasure and not pain. 👍😊 It’s up there with the Aston Martin DB11 V8 both have their strengths and weaknesses, both give you that inner glow and smile on the face when driven down the right road. “Long Live Jaguar”. PS The Adaptive Headlights are very good.

Youre deluded if you think MG are affected by EV decline. Chinas market is 10 times the size of ours. No issues selling the latest roadster. If you want a v8 buy used and pay the 700 pounds tax. Europe has no real choice as Ethanol needs to be imported. Hydrogen is iffy....UK is not independent and has to conform to environmental laws. Weak government to scared to say no to EV. MG not going anywhere. Their owners are the CCP

this made me emotional! i grew up seeing jags lined in a holding lot of premier motor along with mercury Lincoln ford and Maserati, even with all these luxury brands my eyes where all along in the directions of jag i always have this thing towards jag and also have a dream of owning one especially the f-type but this sudden demise of ICE and introduction of ev will kill the jaguar soul that i know i am still in a belief i could save one in like 2/3 years before this disappear.

Spot on. I had an xkr can afford one now but hopefully will be in either an XKR or Ftype in the future.

Such a shame that Jaguar never offered either the XKR or F-Type V8 with a manual gearbox. I prefer the XKR, considering swapping my TVR for one, but the only thing stopping me is the auto only.

Jaguar should tell the world they were just kidding and will be making gas cars forever to preserve their heritage. Imagine what that would do for the brand.

Excellent video dude….. but unfortunately car manufacturers have lost the plot!!!! I’m a Range Rover NUT!!!! Have been driving the mark since 1986!!!! Love the V8 whether it’s the original 3.5 litre or the 3.9 litre or the 4.2 litre or the 4.4 litre Leyland Aussie mota or the 4.6 litre final version of the mota….. But Range Rover got really good when they dropped the 5.0 V8 supercharged jaguar mota into the beast!!!! EV’s are not the answer!!! Synthetic fuels will be the answer!!! There’s to much infrastructure to throw away from the gasoline industry!!! And let’s face it a wind farm can only last for twenty years and they require tons and tons of concrete and steel to make them!!!! And to manufacture cement you need to have a temperature of 1500 degrees to make it work!!!! And you can only get that type of energy from fossil fuels!!! I rest my case!!!! Regards Ian 👨‍🎤🇳🇿👍😎🍸🍸

567!? For what?

I mean you can get a first generation R8 for 40k

Sad to see Jaguar discontinue the F-Type. The only thing worse, is if they continued to manufacture it, but going all electric. Another thing, those black rims are hideous and take away some of the beauty (I’m picking up a ‘14 V8 S next week in Ultimate Black with the cyclone rims.)

I think Jaguars are beautiful, but new Corvette Z51 (not Z06) accelerates faster 0-60mph and has a slightly faster top speed. Cheaper in the US.

V8 jags will not go away. Jaguar will do the same thing Ford did when it replaced the initial V8 in the Raptor with an "Eco-boost" V6. Only to bring back the V8 a few years later (recently) with a "new" V8 at a $30-40k premium over the V6 Eco-boost nobody asked for, wanted, or wants. Jeep did the exact same thing when it reintroduced the V8 on the Wrangler at a substantial premium a few years ago. Jaguar will follow suit. The reintroduction of the V8, after it is "taken away" will serve as a emotional/psychological mind chuck to get the consumer to look past the substantial car price hikes coming in the near future. Get ready to a V8 F-Type in the near future that will be priced 2x what it is now.

Dreaming 😂😂....these guys are retooling their factory to roll out new model of EV Saloon

Unfortunately jaguar have got everything wrong from about 2013, failed to build on original XF (which nearly switched a whole generation of 5series and audi A6 drivers over to them) and to a lesser extent the xk, drunk on thinking they could take range rover margins over to the jag ranged they priced it alongside 911's when it should have been a boxster. Pointless distraction of the technically great xj but who the feck was buying super saloons. JLR had delusions of thinking they were the next full range bmw type manufacturer but they never fixed the core reliability issues in part because they spread themselves too thin. Did the ipace (largely with steyr input) but then no follow up for how long? That car is lovely and a relative bargain but no one is walking from aston martin vantage to that , aston have cracked genuine luxury at low volumes . Jaguar is finished as a brand unfortunately due to british management arrogance and hubris .

A very sad moment for Jaguar. With them going 100% EV and the new EV vehicles starting at £100k+, I simply can't see a big enough market to keep them alive and I think Jaguar will be gone by the end of the decade...I hope I'm wrong.

EVs are a fad.

I must say for a " last hurrah " run off model...would have thought jag would of gone more extreme...has less power than a svr no carbon brakes , nothing really to identify it as special

Sacrilege, defacing such a beautiful car with a gaudy number plate over the front grille.

How to kill a historic and great brand. Just call Jaguar they will help you.

EV Jag? No thx.

Partly as evidenced by the views and comments on this video, very few people give a sh*t about last years dinner microwaved up !

I have a big V8 5.0 supercharged Jag, and I love it, its British, its iconic, its loud and its fast, this is what Jag does best, going EV is a sell out, and is bound to fail.. stick to ICE

Big mistake jaguar are making winding up internal combustion engines cars, electric cars are flawed, overpriced, poor resale prices (Ipace 1 year old depreciation 50%) , and woefully poor milage range. Hope my JLR pension is safe!
