QUINTESSENTIALLY: Jaguar - The "Green Machine"
Jaguar has produced a test model, a 2011 Jaguar XJ electric car that runs on a plug-in electric system with a small combustion engine for added range. While the gas-hungry performance details may not translate from the ICE Jaguars of old, the miles-per-gallon statistic is sexy in its own right.
This Electric 2011 Jaguar XJ would 47 mpg’s and under 120 g/km of carbon emissions. It does so with a 145kW electric motor (194 horsepower) and a 1.2L 3-cylinder engine keeping it charged on longer drives (up to 600 miles). That backup engine is courtesy of a partnership with Lotus, who will provide their expertise with light, powerful engines to Jaguar in the production of this electric steed.
The most important ingredient in Limo-Green is the XJ’s lightweight, all-aluminium body structure, which allows it to still deliver the kind of performance expected of a Jaguar on battery power. Other weight-saving components include a composite rear sub-frame from Caparo Vehicle Technologies, composite brake rotors with aluminium calipers and composite front and rear seat shells. The Limo-Green XJ comes in 100kg lighter than a standard XJ, with more weight-saving still to come.
“When it comes to Limo-Green, we think silence is golden. And green.”
