US Edition2027 Jaguar 4-Door GT Prototype First Drive: A 1,000-hp Trust Fall for the Jaguar Faithful
Jaguar's 2027 electric GT prototype features a unique split battery layout and three motors delivering over 1,000 hp, targeting luxury buyers with about 400 miles EPA range.
- Jaguar tested camouflaged four‑door GT prototypes recently at the REVI winter proving ground, with a verification‑build finished in October 2025, and plans a full reveal this summer.
- Amid Concept 00 backlash, Jaguar is pivoting to an all‑electric ultra‑luxury strategy using the Type 00 design, Autocar reported.
- Powertrain uses a three‑motor AWD system with total output over 1,000 horsepower and five battery stacks supporting 800‑volt architecture, cited by Autocar.
- Testing showed the traction‑management system monitors hundreds of rotor points, with modes adjusting rear torque from 54 to 80 percent and 50 to 75 percent, while the underfloor battery void deepens rear footwells and contributes to a 50/50 weight distribution with a center of gravity about 2.4 inches below the hip point.
- With bold styling, the next-generation Jaguar, expected to start from $120K and measure over 204 inches, faces debate over its brand pivot controversy targeting wealthy buyers.
