HAPPY ENDING
GQ South Africa|October - November 2023
From 2025 Jaguar will go fully electric. Reason enough for our motoring editor Dieter Losskarn to take the iconic British brand's very last petrol-powered, supercharged V8 sportscar on a road trip through its country of origin

HAPPY ENDING

AF TER BUILDING GLORIOUS SPORTSCARS FOR 75 YEARS

THE F-TYPE R75 IS JAGUAR’S FINAL CHAPTER. Not only the brand’s last F-Type, but their very last internal combustion-engined vehicle before the transition to an all-electric future from 2025. The final R75 edition, with its 20-inch forged wheels is a sight to behold. Or, as Jaguar puts it: ‘We knew it was the final one’. Its wider and faster than its predecessor, and this shape, with the long hood and slim LED headlights, turns heads in admiration; a timeless beauty.

This successor in a long line of beautiful sportscars, such as XK120, C-Type, XK140, D-Type, XK-SS, XK150, E-Type, XJ-S, XK8, XK and 2013 F-Type is a worthy last entry in a storied chapter of Jaguar’s history spanning three quarters of a century.
