Jaguar's production of cars with a combustion engine sings on the absolute last verse. This summer it's all over.
For the future, Jaguar will only build electric cars. In fact, the Indian-owned British brand is in such a hurry to get away from fossil fuel cars that production will stop as early as this year.
Jaguar has long said that it aims to build only electric cars as early as 2025. A year we are fast approaching.
For the same reason, Road & Track writes that the car brand will stop the production of the last fossil-fuel cars in the model program as early as June.
But this does not mean that the cars disappear from the dealers. This was explained by the head of the North American Jaguar importer, Joe Eberhardt, to Road & Track.

– The majority of our cars go out of production in June. But they will be on sale for much longer.
– We have a production plan that enables us to have a constant flow of cars until the new ones (electric cars, ed.) are ready.
– We try to plan it so that we have enough volume to be able to handle a clean switch between the model programs.
Technically, this means that Jaguar has to sell cars from a dead model program for more than a year, because they are ready with new electric cars.
In addition, the new model range of electric cars will initially be extremely thin. In fact, Jaguar will only have three electric cars to offer customers.
And they will probably be identical in everything but shapes. In any case, the cars must be built on the same technology – the so-called JEA, Jaguar Electric Architecture, platform.
At home, Jaguar is well enough present. But the brand only sells a few cars here at home. In fact, there is not a single new Jaguar that has been given Danish number plates during January and February this year.
All of last year, the Danish importer only managed to sell one new car. In comparison, sister brand Land Rover sold 27 new cars in Denmark in the same period.
