Jaguar Showcases Pioneering Future at 2013 AvD Oldtimer Grand Prix, Nürburgring

The 2013 AvD Oldtimer Grand Prix at the Nürburgring, last weekend, saw Jaguar demonstrating not only its glorious motor racing past, but also showcasing innovation through technology and design with one of five C-X75 prototype hybrid supercars cars on static display in the main paddock area on site.

Visitors to the Jaguar hospitality zone within the paddock area at the Nürburgring had the opportunity to view the innovative Jaguar C-X75 up close. The Jaguar C-X75 is a state-of-the-art hybrid supercar with the efficiency of a low-emissions city car. It can emit less than 89g/km of CO2 and has a pure electric vehicle range of 60km. The C-X75 can hit 100mph from standstill in less than six seconds and has a top speed of 220mph. Its 502bhp, 1.6-litre turbocharged and supercharged four-cylinder engine is one of the world's highest specific power output powerplants at 313bhp per litre. The C-X75's two electric motors add a further 390bhp, for a combined output in excess of 850bhp.

The great achievements in the development of C-X75 prototypes - including cutting-edge hybrid technologies, carbon composite materials and advanced design solutions pioneered in association with Williams Advanced Engineering - will be utilised in other areas of research and development, innovative future products and next-generation engineering for the Jaguar and Land Rover brands.
