Awesome Jaguar C-X75 to Have Gas and Electric Power, 800 Horses
May 6th, 2011
Jaguar has announced that it will be building a small limited edition run of the C-X75 supercar. This car turned up as a concept about a year ago with electric motors in each wheel and jet engines. The car has shed those jet engines and gained a turbocharged four-cylinder engine.
Jag will make the cars for the UK only, and the gasoline and electric motors combined will produce 800bhp. That will be good enough for 0-62mph in three seconds and 0-100mph in six seconds. The top speed will be 200mph. The body is made from carbon fiber and it will be very green.
That is a supercar for sure, and it gets a super price. The car will sell for between £700,000 and £900,000 (appx. $1.14 to $1.47 million).
