Jaguar to produce and sell classic E-type coupe with an electric powerchain

E-type Jaguar (Green Car Reports)

“Jaguar announced [last year] that it plans to produce and sell classic E-type coupes, similar to the one that carried Prince Harry and Meghan Markle from Windsor Castle to their wedding reception, starting in 2020—complete with its electric powertrain.”

“The beautiful coupes are based off the E-type Zero concept shown last year and won't actually be new; the production two-seaters are original Jaguar E-types restored at the company's Classic Works center and converted to electric power. …….Jaguar says the electric E-type will use technology from Jaguar's latest electric production car, the I-Pace SUV.”

“The company will build the electric E-types at its Classic Works restoration shop alongside other classic Jaguars. The company said the E-type Zero could be among other classics restored with electric powertrains from the classic center.”
