Jaguar ends combustion engine era with F-TYPE ZP Edition

Jaguar, like a number of other carmakers, has declared that it will no longer sell vehicles with internal combustion engines after 2024. It has set in motion the plans to become an all-electric luxury brand from 2025, and has products ready to meet that goal.

To commemorate the end of its combustion engined sportscar lineage, it has come out with an exclusive limited-edition F-TYPE inspired by two iconic 1960s racing E-types. Known as the F-TYPE ZP Edition, there will only be 150 units offered as the last combustion-engined sportscars designed by Jaguar.

The F-TYPE ZP Edition will have a 575 ps/700Nm supercharged V8 and an all-wheel drive system with Intelligent Driveline Dynamics technology. As with every Jaguar, the performance will be exceptional on all surfaces and in all weather conditions. Reaching 100 km/h is claimed to be possible within 3.7 seconds and while the car can go faster, its acceleration will top out at 300 km/h due to an electronic governor.

“F-TYPE has captivated sportscar drivers for more than a decade, just as the E-type did 5 decades before it. The ZP Edition is the ultimate celebration of that lineage, joining an illustrious roster of heritage-inspired collector’s editions including the 2015 Project 7 and 2020 Heritage 60 Edition,” said Rawdon Glover, Managing Director, Jaguar.

Two F-TYPE ZP Edition colourways are available, recalling the first race-winning ‘Project ZP’ E-types campaigned shortly after the model’s launch in 1961. Customers will be able to choose from Oulton Blue Gloss paint with Mars Red and Ebony duotone leather interior, or Crystal Grey Gloss paint with Navy Blue and Ebony duotone leather interior. Both feature Porcelain White Gloss hand-painted racing-style roundels on the doors and Porcelain White Gloss grille surrounds.

Neither exterior paint colour has been offered on the F-TYPE before. These colours match the two specially formulated paints created for 7 pairs of E-type Project ZP Collection cars announced by Jaguar Classic earlier this year.

Each car features a ‘One of 150’ SV Bespoke commissioning plaque.
