Jaguar presents a compact sports car C-Type at 2011

Posted by Groove Saturday, January 16, 2010
Jaguar will from next year to compete in the segment of the BMW Z4, Mercedes SLK and Audi TT. This is the C-type was created. Like the XK, which has an aluminum monocoque and there are a coupe and a convertible variant. Furthermore, all reported that the C-type is a pure two seater. Inside Line reports that the U.S.. Reportedly is in the design of the C-type look to these F-type concept, which again dates from 2000.
About the engine range is yet unknown. It is obvious that the big V8 a bit too large for the compact sports car. Perhaps, the 3.0-liter V6 from the XF is on the nomination. It is also possible that the new Jaguar model with Ford EcoBoost engines are involved. They emit much less CO2 and Jaguar in that area could use some improvement.
Jaguar and Ford are now no longer sister brands, but in the near future they will continue to share technology. Of the C-type may thus benefit. Moreover let the source at Jaguar also know that the engine room of the C-type enough space is created for the supercharged 5.0-liter V8 in place. That should be the answer to the AMG version of the SLK.
