JAKARTA - It's no secret that manufacturers like Jaguar have planned to become fully EV brands in the future and will slowly leave the combustion engine (ICE). One of the ICE models that will not continue production in the future is the F-Type.
This brand from the United Kingdom has produced the last unit of the F-Type assembled at the Castle Bromwich factory, England. Since this is the last unit, the model will be announced in the 'Jaguar Heritage' collection.
"Today, when we celebrate F-TYPE and 75 years of innovative sports car history. We are also looking forward to the start of a new era," said Jaguar Managing Director Rawdon Glover, quoted from the brand's official website, Saturday, June 15.
The last unit of the F-Type is equipped with a 5.0 liter V8-style Convertible engine decorated with a Giola Green color with a black roof and interior coated with Tan Windsor skin.
This convertible sports car will be handed over to the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust (JDHT) museum. This place has been established since 1983 by displaying various previous models of the Jaguar and Land Rover brands.
Jaguar F-Type will join several models that are no longer produced, such as the legendary E-Type. The two will be at JDHT, Gaydon, England along with the last units of XE, XF, and XF Sportbrake.
F-TYPE was first launched as a convertible car in 2013 and is Jaguar's first two-seat sports car since 40 years ago. In its debut year, this car received the World Car Design of the Year award.
