TWR Supercat: Classic Jaguar combines power, exclusivity, and modern design (Instagram @twrperformance)
The TWR has revealed the Supercat, a grand tourer inspired by the classic spirit of race cars, based on the 1980s Jaguar XJS V-12.
The model, limited to just 88 hand-built units in the UK, is powered by a 5.6-liter supercharged V-12 engine, producing 651 hp and 538 lb-ft of torque, combined with a six-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive.
Additionally, the Supercat features a tubular frame and carbon fiber construction, advanced suspension, and modern traction control.
The design of the Supercat was created by Khyzyl Saleem, known for his bold projects, in collaboration with Magnus Walker, a famous Porsche enthusiast. The limited production of the model is a tribute to Jaguar’s 1988 Le Mans victory with the XJR-9 and will be available in both left-hand and right-hand drive versions for international markets.
The starting price is $285,000, including UK taxes, with additional options such as ceramic brakes for those looking to use the car on the track.
The Supercat is a blend of modernity and nostalgia, bringing the essence of the old Jaguars from the race track but adapted for road use. It’s an option for those seeking an exclusive, high-performance model at a time when Jaguar is focusing on the future with electric models.
