Jaguar C-X75 Engine

May 4, 2019 by sjw Leave a Comment

Remember the Jaguar that starred in Spectre, part of the James Bond series of films? The Jaguar C-X75 (named after the anniversary of the company) never made it to production even though it was a leading light in new (at the time) plugin hybrid propulsion systems - that concept ended up reaching the market via Ferrari with their LaFerrari and track based FXX-K models.

Recent articles have included the cam-less engine, Mazda considering the … [Read more...]
