Jaguar F-Type Teaser Video Will Light Up Your Day

We’re counting down the days and the hours before Jaguar fully reveals the much anticipated successor to the E-Type. This new roadster will be built from aluminum, leather and steel but it will also have a soul. Only Jaguar can make a ‘cat’ purr the right way using a supercharged V6, and only they know the magic behind mixing aggressive and subtle exhaust notes for a big V8.
The car we’re waiting on, the F-Type, will be powered by espectively by 340PS and 380PS versions of Jaguar's new 3.0-litre V6 supercharged petrol engine and a new derivative of its 5.0-litre V8 supercharged unit.

"Fundamentally, a great sports car is one you'll look forward to driving because it's fun, and the F-TYPE definitely delivers on that score. We've worked hard to make sure that responses to steering, throttle and brakes are absolutely immediate, a task made far easier by the rigid aluminium structure at the car's base. It's precise and exciting, a car that you'll want to drive for the sake of driving alone - and it sounds fantastic!" says Mike Cross, Chief Engineer, Vehicle Integrity, Jaguar.

autoevolution will be attending the Paris Motor Show 2012, so stay tuned for some real up close and personal shots of the vehicles, as well as for first-hand details of the motorized contraptions presented at the event.
