VIDEO: EVERYTHING You Ever Wanted To Know About The Jaguar That NEVER Will Be Built

What exactly defines a vehicle that is built? I can argue in a multitude of directions for the sake of it, but ultimately, I believe a vehicle that's "built" is one that's produced for the public's consumption. It's not a prototype or a vehicle built for engineering purposes.

So, by my definition, the Jaguar C-X75 does not fit. Sure, five of them exist and can be driven but the reality is that no more will be built and no one that's not a member of the media or Jaguar employee will be able to drive one. The C-X75 won't wind up in someone's driveway, and that's a shame.

Looking like an XJ220 with some inspiration from the XJ13, this supercar Jaguar is out of this world. With total output in the 900 horsepower range, it would have made a formidable competitor to the likes of the latest and greatest from Ferrari, McLaren and Porsche.

But we'll only be able to speculate as it got the axe.

In a properly insightful review and video, learn everything there is to know about one of the greatest Jaguars that will never be built.


The Jaguar C-X75 should have been Jaguar's entry in to the hypercar world. Instead it was killed early in its development. There are five prototype C-X75s still doing the rounds, only 40 people have had a go in them and Alex is one of them.

NOT building the CX75 was a brilliant move. The LAST Jaguar needed was to waste time and development money on halo car such as this. The powertrain had every potential to be a nightmare and Jaguar has more pressing needs like completely rethinking the XJ given that the public is NOT buying it. Surely it cannot be the hatchback looking styling! They also need to rethink the XF given its terrible sales (one sixth the rate of a Hyundai Genesis).
