 "Jaguar's luxury electric sedan undergoing road testing, debut on Dec 2")
Sports and luxury vehicle brand Jaguar is gearing up to make a strong statement in the electric vehicle (EV) market with its upcoming fully-electric luxury sedan, set to debut on December 2, according to a report by Financial Express.
Currently undergoing road testing in Europe, the vehicle represents a pivotal moment in the brand's shift toward sustainability and high-performance EVs. The luxury automakers plan to go fully electric by 2025, replacing its existing range with EVs.
In line with these plans, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is investing £15 billion over the next five years.
The yet-unnamed 4-door grand tourer, based on Jaguar Electric Architecture (JEA), is being developed at the company’s Solihull facility in the United Kingdom. Slated to debut as a Design Vision Concept at Miami Art Week on December 2, the sedan aims to redefine luxury EVs with a focus on design, performance, and cutting-edge technology.
Testing for the prototype is underway in the UK, where it has already clocked tens of thousands of miles through virtual and physical trials. Prototypes will soon hit global public roads and test tracks
Jaguar electric sedan: Design highlights
Media reports of the camouflaged vehicle hint at a striking design language that blends classic GT aesthetics with modern EV innovation:

- Classic GT Silhouette: Features an elongated hood, a rearward-set cabin, and a sloping roofline.
- Performance-Oriented Design: Large wheels and substantial length suggest a focus on stability and power.
- Modern Styling: A prominent, rectangular grille-like feature dominates the front, likely a design statement rather than an air intake, consistent with its electric nature.
While this concept showcases Jaguar’s vision for its EV future, production models may undergo further refinements.
Transition to electric and pause on sales
Jaguar’s move towards fully electric vehicles is part of its broader strategy to establish itself as a luxury EV-only brand by 2026. Earlier this week, Bloomberg reported that Jaguar has paused sales of new vehicles in the UK, taking a hiatus until its reemergence as a premium EV brand.
Under its owner Tata Motors, JLR laid out its EV roadmap in 2021, closely following the UK’s announcement to phase out petrol and diesel vehicles by 2030. This transition, however, has proven challenging for both JLR and the UK automotive industry, given the complexities of EV manufacturing and infrastructure development.
Jaguar in Indian auto market
While there is no official confirmation about the sedan’s launch in India, the likelihood remains strong due to JLR’s ownership by Tata Motors. If introduced, the car could debut in India by late 2025, aligning with Jaguar’s global EV strategy.
