Jaguar’s model strategy leaked, six cars by 2017

Jaguar’s model launch strategy for the next four years has been leaked.

In 2014, there is just one model, the F-Type Coupe, that is expected to see the light of day and it’s quite possible that it will be cheaper than its convertible sibling. Reports indicate that it could be up to 33 percent stiffer than the roadster and also significantly lighter.

Coming to 2015, Jaguar’s highly anticipated entry-level sedan which is set to tackle the BMW 3-Series will be launched and apparently it will get the Q-Type moniker, even though the previous reports suggested that it would be the XS.

A crossover concept is expected to be unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September which will be followed by the production version in the year 2016. The concept would be riding on the same PLA platform as the Q-Type and so it will boast an all-aluminum construction and is set to compete with the BMW X3 and Audi Q5.

Lastly in 2017, while the next-generation Jaguar XJ and XK are scheduled for a 2016 release, the all-new XF will be out in 2017. The current-gen XF will receive a facelift next year when it should get JLR’s new four-cylinder engines.
