It will be remembered most of the E-Type, when finally the curtain falls, although the design has a contemporary designed value.


For entry, a 3.0-liter V6 petrol engine has been chosen, which is to make 340 hp and has a supercharger. Optionally, you can then get the engine with an output of 380 hp.

All engines, which are screwed into the F-Type, should work with an eight-speed automatic transmission, which power is passed on to the rear wheels. Gives the start-stop system is fitted as standard and helps save fuel. It is estimated that one will probably expect a starting price of 70,000 euros, more details were not known Jaguar.
