Jaguar has announced the culmination of its internal combustion sports car era with the reveal of a special limited-edition F-TYPE ZP Edition, slated to be its final gas-powered sports car before transitioning to an all-electric lineup in 2025.
This exclusive edition, set to release in 2024, pays homage to its iconic 1960s racing E-types and is limited to just 150 units globally.
Specifically inspired by the first race-winning “Project ZP” E-types from the early ’60s, the F-TYPE ZP Edition is available in two unique colorways – a sleek Oulton Blue Gloss paint with a Mars Red and Ebony leather interior, or a Crystal Grey Gloss paint paired with a Navy Blue and Ebony leather interior. Notably, these exterior colors are premiering on the F-TYPE, having been specially crafted earlier for the E-type Project ZP Collection cars by Jaguar Classic.
Under the hood, the F-TYPE ZP Edition houses nearly 570 hp produced by a supercharged petrol V8 engine, designed for exceptional performance across all terrains and weather conditions. With a robust all-wheel-drive system enhanced by Jaguar’s Intelligent Driveline Dynamics (IDD) technology, the car boasts a 0-60mph time of just 3.5 seconds, capping the top speed at an electronically-limited 186mph.
The interior and exterior details of this edition have been meticulously curated by SV Bespoke, featuring Porcelain White Gloss hand-painted racing-style roundels on the doors and grille surrounds — a nod to its racing history — horizontal seat fluting and Gloss Black accents. Additionally, Gloss Black Diamond Turned 20-inch forged alloy wheels, exclusive F-TYPE ZP Edition branding and a “One of 150” SV Bespoke commissioning plaque further highlight the vehicle’s collectible status.
Rawdon Glover, the Managing Director of Jaguar, said “As Jaguar embarks on the boldest transformation in its history, to become a modern luxury all-electric brand from 2025, this is an unrepeatable celebration of Jaguar’s internal combustion sports car provenance.
He added “F-TYPE has captivated sports car drivers for more than a decade, just as the E-type did five decades before it. The ZP Edition is the ultimate celebration of that lineage, joining an illustrious roster of heritage-inspired collector’s editions including the 2015 Project 7 and 2020 Heritage 60 Edition.”
The F-TYPE ZP Edition will soon be available to order via inquiry through Jaguar’s official site, with the Coupé model priced at $165,000 USD and the Convertible model priced at 170,000 USD.
