Testing of Jaguar C-X75 Hybrid Supercar Soon


There’s great news from Merritt Island Jaguar, your trusted Jaguar car dealer in Merritt Island, Florida. Jaguar is ready to start road testing of the C-X75 hybrid supercar from next month with a 2014 launch target. This is a significant development as Jaguar and Land Rover are introducing new cars like the 2013 Range Rover, Range Rover Evoque and XF Sportbrake.

Merritt Island Jaguar feels a great super car is a must for Jaguar, the leading luxury and performance marques in the world. Jaguar expects C-X75 hybrid supercar to be its Ferrari F70 or Porsche 918 Spyder. The C-X75 hybrid supercar is a more production possible hybrid with two axial-flux electric motors, one on each axle, working together with a 1.6 liter turbocharged and supercharged four cylinder engine (developed with Williams F1) that runs to 10,000rpm and produces 500bhp. The C-X75 was initially revealed two years ago as a gas turbine, electrically driven 780bhp supercar. 

The C-X75 hybrid supercar is an embodiment of clever technology wrapped up in a glorious body. To make it work in the real world, Jaguar is putting five C-X75s on the road through repeated tests to make sure there are no issues – particularly cooling, which is often a problem on high performance supercars – and that it can really deliver its sub-3 second 0-62mph, 0-100mph in under 6 seconds and EV range of 40 miles, without any issues. If the tests are successful, Jaguar is planning to introduce the C-X75 hybrid supercar with a production run of 200 cars in 2014.
