Jaguar is looking to younger American motorists with the Type 01, a premium electric car featuring bold styling. The model embodies the British brand’s new direction as it seeks a revival based on electric vehicles and an international customer base.
The project also highlights a practical issue in the UK: the body is so long that it can be difficult to accommodate in many British car parks. That may matter less in the wide-open spaces of the United States, but it raises questions about practicality in Europe.
