SO this is what a Jaguar SUV looks like.
In concept form at least.
This, the Jaguar C-X17, is due to be unveiled on 09 September, prior to the Frankfurt Show.
Jaguar has always been short of an SUV. Well, it’s been short of a small car to fit below the fabulous XF, too.
And a car like the Jaguar C-X17 would really fit the bill on the SUV front – more an elevated estate than a full-on SUV.
Jaguar is saying precious little.
Except that the Jaguar C-X17 has been designed to showcase Jaguar’s new modular aluminium architecture that can be used to underpin a variety of new vehicles (step forward that small saloon).
No doubt we’ll know more about the Jaguar C-X17 after its official unveil.
In addition to the Jaguar C-X17, Jaguar will also show its recently launched R performance models – the XJR and XFR-S – and the estate car XF Sportbrake and F-TYPE roadster at the Frankfurt Show.
