Jaguar will confirm the name of its electric grand tourer on 12 May, according to a report from Autocar India.

It has to this point been known as the Type 00, the name applied to the dramatic concept car revealed in December 2024, and by its codename, X900. It will, however, carry a different moniker through to production.

The car will mark a total reset for the British brand in both its design and engineering, but it remains to be seen whether it will inherit a historic name – as the previous F-Type followed on from the E-Type – or something new.

The finished car will be revealed in September, Autocar India also reports, with the first customer cars earmarked to hit the road early next year.

The low-slung GT is underpinned by the new Jaguar Electric Architecture, designed specifically for the brand’s new wave of EVs.

As previously reported by Autocar, it is Jaguar’s stiffest car yet – with torsional rigidity of 50,000Nm/deg – and its most aerodynamically efficient, with a drag coefficient of less than 0.25.

A tri-motor powertrain with one unit on the front axle and two at the rear will yield more than 1000bhp as well as 959lb ft of torque. Battery capacity will measure around 120kWh for a range of more than 400 miles, and it will be suspended by two-chamber air springs and adaptive dampers at each corner, riding on 23in wheels as standard – although 21s will be available as an option.
