DeluxeStang Posted November 21 Share Posted November 21 (edited) Doesn't look super promising. There's almost an art deco vibe to it, but not in a good way imo. Idk, I'm prepared to eat my words if it looks good when we see the full thing in a few weeks. It'll definitely stand out, that's for sure.

Rick73 Posted November 22 Share Posted November 22 I’d much prefer the blob look. 😀 May be aero but sharp edges and no rear window makes it too unconventional for my taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisgb Posted November 23 Share Posted November 23 (edited) 10-4 on the nouveau art deco vibe. The brand is becoming more Tabby than Panthera onca IMO Edited November 23 by Chrisgb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpd80 Posted November 24 Share Posted November 24 Jaguar has run out of ideas, its buyers ran out of patience years ago and now, all that’s left is provocative advertising that’s simply click bait to get interest from people who probably won’t buy one in any case…. Way to go destroying the brands name as you circle the drain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I find interesting is that Gerry McGovern (was at Ford 20(?) years ago) is still there, I think as 'Chief Creative Officer' or some such title. He never made a big splash at Ford in the design realm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He never made a big splash at Ford in the design realm. Sometimes people are hired for their managerial skills. Being a Chief Creative Officer may see him overseeing a design staff that does all the work. Ralph Gilles, Chief Design Officer of Stellantis, admitted on "Autoline After Hours" that he hasn't drawn a new car in years. The people he hired do the designing.

Fair point, but Jaguar are not that big. I would posit that McGovern has his needle in the well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
