Default Jaguar CX95

So, an article about an upcoming Jaguar concept hypercar called the CX95 came unto my computer a few minutes ago. In the rendering stage right now, it's hard to really tell what it looks like. It is described as seating for one which means like the CX75, it will never see the light of day or production. Why waste the time, effort, and money, design a car you can sell now like a new XK series?

Saw the same thing in my news feed Ted. I was going to post it in the general section. Concept car for the next generation of power and control. This link shows a few pics

It almost goes without saying that today's concept cars contribute a lot of genetic material to tomorrow's production cars. Take the Corvette C8. GM almost put into production a mid-engine concept C7 first proposed around 2006. The 2008 super-recession killed the concept in favor of a safer update of the front-engined C6. But the C7 concept is really the parent of the C8.

The CX95 will not be a production car. But is likely to inform many aspects of future high-performance Jaguars. If it's real.... see later posts

It's nothing but clickbait, and it's not from Jaguar. It's a meaningless total waste of time by a doodler who's bored from working at home.

"And this isn’t a concept or design by Jaguar, but rather a concept rendering by Jack Liu. If you don’t know who Mr. Liu is, ..."

I couldn't care less who he is because he got my attention using false pretenses.

IN this case Stuart is correct. Unfortunately there are many of these hoax car sites designed to steer traffic under false pretenses.

Jaguar also developed a vehicle specifically for and exclusively Need For Speed, or some other such game. No physical model will ever be built.

That's completely different, because it's a real Jaguar from the Jaguar factory and it's driveable - in cyberspace. The big plus is the low cost of admission, maintenance, repairs, and depreciation.

A cheap way for Jaguar to get the younger generation hooked on Jaguars!
