Jaguar’s Striking Type 00 EV Stands Out Like No Other on the Streets of Paris

Whether you love it or hate it, Jaguar has successfully sparked conversation as it redefines its brand. Its latest move in that direction is debuting the bold Type 00 EV concept on the streets of Paris for the first time—accompanied by actor Barry Keoghan.

Type 00 EV Hits the Streets

We’ve seen the Type 00 in renders, on stage, at exclusive events, and in studio photos—but seeing it in the real world is a whole different experience. Here are some shots of the car on the road, showcasing its bold proportions and striking matte finish.

Here, it is showing off its practicality with some luggage space:

Even in unfiltered footage, it has an otherworldly presence—whether that’s a good or bad thing depends on your perspective.

Jaguar’s new design language may not appeal to everyone, but I appreciate its bold leap in a completely different direction. Despite concerns about the brand’s transformation, the reality is that Jaguar wasn’t selling in high volumes anyway—global sales fell from over 180,000 units annually in 2018-2019 to less than 67,000 in 2023-2024.

Perhaps redefining its audience with a striking, unconventional design is a worthwhile move, especially when nothing else on the market looks quite like it. And to be fair, the upcoming production four-door GT currently in testing doesn’t seem too extreme.

Jaguar is gearing up to launch a new lineup of EVs next year, beginning with the previously mentioned sedan. Priced at over $165,000, it promises an impressive 430-mile (692 km) range. If it generates as much buzz as this concept, Jaguar might just have a real shot at a comeback.
