Jaguar, Williams F1 team launch hybrid supercar

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-13307919

Jaguar has unveiled plans to build a £700,000 ($1.15m) petrol-electric hybrid supercar in the UK.
It will build 250 cars in partnership with Formula 1 team Williams F1.
The C-X75's ultra-light chassis and two electric motors will help it accelerate from nought to 60mph in three seconds.
It will have an all-electric range of 50km and its overall emissions of less than 100g CO2 per kilometre will be one of the lowest in the industry.
The car will have a top speed of more than 200mph, while the hybrid engine will extend the car's range well beyond 50km.
The move is part of a £5bn investment plan, announced by Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) in March at the Geneva motor show, to launch 40 "significant new products" over the next five years.
Production of the C-X75 will create more than 100 highly-skilled jobs in the UK. These will be split between Jaguar and Williams, which is based in Grove in Oxfordshire.
The model will be built from 2013 until 2015, although it has not yet been decided where production will take place.
Jaguars are currently manufactured at Castle Bromwich, near Birmingham, although JLR's headquarters are in Warwickshire

That's a stunner!...Well, aside from the rear view, I guess. :pagel: From some angle, the back part just looked like a UFO! Other than that, I must say I like how the model looks. Jaguar is apparently one of the leading car manufacturers to incorporate the hybrid feature to the supercars notorious for being a gas-guzzling performer. I read it here :Porsche and Jaguar lead change for hybrid supercars, cardealexpert.com/news-information .
It will be exciting to see how this industry will evolve. :happy:
