Jaguar has announced the launch of a limited edition version of their coupe and convertible, the Jaguar F-Type Chequered Flag.
The car is being launched to celebrate 70 years of Jaguar sports cars since the launch of the XK 120. It will come with a choice of a 300 PS four-cylinder engine and 340 PS and 380 PS V6 engines.
Based on the F-TYPE R-Dynamic Coupé and Convertible, and available with powerful four- and six-cylinder engines, the Chequered Flag features a range of subtle visual enhancements to the exterior and to the driver-focused “1+1” cabin.
Highlights include a Black Contrast roof on the Coupé and a luxurious Windsor Leather interior featuring Performance seats with embossed headrests, a Dark Brushed Aluminium centre console trim finisher and – in recognition of Jaguar’s motorsport successes – a steering wheel with discrete Chequered Flag logo and red leather band to mark the 12 o’clock position.
Performance and Engine Options
The Jaguar F-Type Chequered Flag edition offers a range of engine options to suit different driving preferences. The 300 PS four-cylinder engine provides a balanced mix of performance and efficiency, making it an excellent choice for those who want a spirited drive without compromising on fuel economy. On the other hand, the 340 PS and 380 PS V6 engines deliver a more exhilarating driving experience, with increased power and torque for those who crave a more dynamic performance.
The V6 engines are particularly noteworthy for their supercharged design, which ensures immediate throttle response and a thrilling acceleration. This makes the Chequered Flag edition not just a tribute to Jaguar’s rich history but also a modern sports car that can hold its own on both the road and the track.
Design and Interior Features
The design of the Jaguar F-Type Chequered Flag edition is a nod to the brand’s illustrious past while incorporating modern elements that enhance its appeal. The Black Contrast roof on the Coupé adds a touch of sophistication, making the car stand out even more. The Windsor Leather interior is not just about luxury; it’s about creating a comfortable and engaging driving environment. The Performance seats with embossed headrests provide excellent support during spirited driving, ensuring that the driver remains comfortable even on longer journeys.
The Dark Brushed Aluminium centre console trim finisher adds a modern touch to the interior, complementing the overall design language of the car. The steering wheel, featuring a discrete Chequered Flag logo and a red leather band at the 12 o’clock position, is a subtle yet significant detail that pays homage to Jaguar’s motorsport heritage. This attention to detail extends to every aspect of the car, making it a truly special edition.
