Jaguar lead a pre-emptive strike during this year’s Paris Motor Show with the unveiling of their electric, super car, concept! Forget the mandatory, celebratory mandates set forth for the British automaker’s 75th anniversary. The reflective moment at hand is the fact that the C-X75 is the most ostentatious vehicle ever theorized and manifested by Jaguar since the XJ13! “Performance through innovation has always been a Jaguar hallmark.

The C-X75 demonstrates that the company is still leading the field in automotive design and technology.” Dr Ralf Speth, Chief Executive Officer, Jaguar Land Rover. Good point Dr. Speth.
