    Jaguar E-Type, the feline that reinvented the road

    Some cars are not just cars, but true works of art. The 1968 Jaguar E-Type 1.5 Series is a perfect example. A true embodiment of British glamour and sportiness, its innovative lines, endless hood and feline allure have left their mark on automotive history.

    Unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in 1961, the Jaguar E-Type immediately became an automotive legend. Designed by Malcolm Sayer, an aeronautical engineer by training, it borrowed from aviation techniques to offer a revolutionary design and exceptional aerodynamics.

    An aesthetic and technical revolution

    Inspired by the legendary Jaguar D-Type, winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the E-Type Series 1 is a masterpiece of sculptural lines and pure performance. Its long hood, streamlined headlights and tapered rear make it instantly recognizable.

    Under the hood, a 3.8 L in-line six-cylinder engine, increased to 4.2 L from 1964, delivers up to 265 hp and a top speed of around 240 km/h, impressive figures for the time. Its disc brakes and independent suspension made it a car as elegant as it was powerful, capable of rivaling the best Italian sports cars while remaining much more affordable.

    Faced with new regulations in the United States, Jaguar’s main market, the brand introduced a transitional version in 1967, called the Series 1.5. This model retained the iconic lines of the Series 1, but introduced a number of modifications, including the removal of the streamlined headlamps to meet US standards, and mechanical improvements. The E-Type then evolved into the Series 2 in 1968, followed by the Series 3 V12 in 1971.

    Today, with almost 70,000 examples produced, the Jaguar E-Type is one of the world’s most prized collector’s cars. A symbol of British Grand Tourism, it continues to seduce lovers of fine mechanical engineering and timeless design.
