Default SVO Considering Bolder Jaguar Project 7 Successor

Interesting article, sounds like Ian Callum may want to step it up yet another level?

Unfortunately, that article ended before it even really got started. Everyone already knew that Jag will continue upping the ante on the F-Type. That's the whole point behind the SVO operations.

I would love an electric F Type. Not sure how they would work the active exhausts though!

Easy, just a soundtrack of a 2016 F type R playing through the Meridian System! LOL

Don't laugh. In Europe, electric cars will eventually be required to project a sound to warn pedestrians of their approach. Manufacturers are expected to offer a multitude of sound tracks including everything from Exotic car exhausts (the F-Type one would think) to a UFO (whatever the hell a UFO sounds like).

I was laughing.....but it was one of those sad laughs!

SVO's next project? Modern Superlight. Do it. The E-Type made history with light weight and an inline 6.

You could be on to something here. I'd like to see that.

Well, I'm sure it will be coming eventually. Jaguar is coming to Formula E!

Mine already has a home, but thanks for the offer. I haven't even driven it yet and they are talking about the next incarnation.

Hoping next weekend all the sand and stones are cleared from the roads.

I'd love to hear your thoughts after you've had a chance to drive your P7. ....The weather has finally turned the corner here in Kelowna; They had the streets cleaned by April 1st and the sun is shining. :-)

Cheers,
Dave

Not here, my street looks like a quarry. They are cleaning around town, just not near my house yet...we also need a good hard rain to get rid of all the dust.

My wife always said I could do anything I could afford - although there was something about the way she said it. Better make it the P7.

Ever hear a Fisker Karma, because that is probably as UFO as you will get outside of a Jetson's car.


The electric FedEX vehicles also have a funky futuristic sound when driving around.
