Jaguar’s latest all-wheel-drive system continuously monitors grip levels and driver inputs and uses feed-forward torque distribution to both pre-empt and react to wheel-slip. Jaguar hasn’t mentioned V-8 applications, which makes sense since the automaker is turning away from big engines.īoth rear- and all-wheel drive is also compatible with iQ. It has also been designed to incorporate innovative efficiency technologies such as diesel, plug-in hybrid and even battery-powered electric powertrains.įurthermore, Jaguar is developing new four-cylinder gas and diesel engines for its iQ platform, while performance fans will be happy to hear that the automaker’s supercharged V-6 engine from the F-Type sports car will also fit. Derived from the Premium Lightweight Architecture that underpins the larger Range Rover SUV, the iQ is a scalable vehicle platform designed not only to be light but also extremely stiff. The key to both models will be the iQ platform. Jaguar C-X17 concept, 2013 Frankfurt Auto Show Given the automaker’s naming cadence, the new sedan is likely to be called the XQ while the crossover should get the Q-Type moniker. What the vehicles will be called is still up in the air, though we know Jaguar has registered “XQ” and “Q-Type” with the European Union's trademark agency. The production version of the C-X17 will follow soon after. We’ve already spied this small sedan, which Jaguar tells us will be launched in 2015. It's the first to be built on the company's new aluminium monocoque structure for smaller cars, which carries the codename “iQ” and will also spawn a small sedan meant to compete head to head with the BMW 3-Series and erase forever the memories of the less-than-stellar X-Type sedan that failed at the same goal a decade ago. Now we're just back from the concept's reveal on the eve of the 2013 Frankfurt Auto Show, and have photos and more details of this new and radically different kind of Jaguar-which previews a production vehicle coming in the next couple of years.
