THREE EXCITING COLORS
The C-X17 Concept has been revealed to the world in three stunning colors: Caesium Blue, Liquid Aluminum and Liquid Gold.
THE BEAUTY OF JAGUAR
The C-X17 Concept had to be stylish, sporty and exciting. It had to stand out from the crowd, while retaining the sense of timeless sophistication that is typically Jaguar.
Jaguar Design Director, Ian Callum, says, ‘We designed the C-X17 from the ground up from a distinct set of principles, a deep sense of what makes a Jaguar car: exciting proportions, clean lines, balance of form. Assertive and powerful, yet with a beautiful sensuality about it, the C-X17 is boldly, distinctively Jaguar.’
CLEVER INSIDE
The C-X17 Concept’s cabin brings together innovative interactive technology with a modern take on traditional high-quality materials and British craftsmanship for true luxury and sophistication. The inviting design and overall usability of the interior, along with its versatility – including its extensive cargo space – means that it is as good for the family as it is exciting for the driver.
DRIVER FOCUSED
The assured driving position is designed to give a feeling of security and being cocooned within the luxury of the cabin. There are premium materials used throughout including milled aluminum and black brushed anodized metal finishes for a dark, sophisticated effect. The attention to detail even includes the rotary gearshift which controls the vehicle’s driving modes. It is finished in striking ruthenium, a type of platinum, and dramatically rises as soon as the C-X17 Concept is activated.
REAR WHEEL DRIVE
In normal grip conditions, the C-X17 Concept’s Instinctive All Wheel Drive system4 delivers traction to the rear wheels. This is unique in the Sports Crossover segment and helps provide the renowned Jaguar dynamic driving experience. The system continuously monitors the road surface to pre-empt and react to wheel slip for greater driver confidence and improved vehicle stability in low grip conditions.
