Car Barn Sport | Jaguar F-Type (2014) | And progress - this tradition with a new language, assertive design has always Jaguar elegance sinuous, muscular, and the F-type continue to be defined. In profile and from top to bottom in the Jaguar F-Type The main argument of "HEART" starts gill shark dissection blade on either side of the grid. This first Heartline times stronger and runs as top of the line of defense, with sight lines that help the driver when cornering. Besides surface "light catcher" in detail above the threshold, it sends a sense of line speed of the car. The surface light catcher Detailed review wrap allows the surface of the door to the whole side of the car, whereby an effect of the fuselage. The clean lines and elegant tail, are partly possible to reduce by including a rear spoiler, which distributes active at high speed on the aerodynamic lift. The spoiler is generated when the F-Type 60 mph and then down to flush when the speed below 40 mph.
Technology has facilitated the design language of Jaguar F-Type, the device requires a single compact xenon projector, while the J-Blade LED daytime running the HEART project by offering a lamp. The lower edge of the side vent upper bell-shaped shell. The hidden door handles automatically implement support design purity. The handles remain flush with the door panel until it is activated by an unlock the car with the key or touching a touch-sensitive area of the lever. The distribution provides a mechanical automatic "handshake" and called for the driver and front passenger to give. Full LED taillights a new Jaguar sports car company to interpret the classic signs of the past anew. Wrapping the lights to the rear edge of the rear wheel housing of the rear-wheel drive is highlighted powerful actuating position. V6 Twin Center was introduced in a nod to the classic Jaguar E-Type in 1961. Exhaust finisher bolder increasingly installed on a Jaguar These are molded in one piece of stainless steel, to create a continuous surface gloss. The F-Type Jaguar V6 model is characterized by black satin ribbon on doors, vents, front splitter and rear bumpers, while the two "S" models are glossy black finish in these areas.
Ian Callum, Design Director of Jaguar Jaguar, which replaced the use of the facilities of the aluminum body today the construction of the new Jaguar F-Type to its advanced architecture of rigid, lightweight aluminum. Jaguar engineers applied over a decade of experience in the production of aluminum, two goals for the F-type reduced mass and the extremely stiff body to achieve. AC300, an aluminum alloy of the 6000 series was specifically chosen for the part of the Jaguar F-Type to achieve these goals. The structure of the F-type is riveted and glued, and the manufacturing process emits 80 percent less CO2 than similar welding steel structure. In addition to the structural alloy developed an alloy of aluminum panel Jaguar AC600 enter the language design. The AC600-alloy strength and quality of performance, but with a high degree of plasticity.
Aluminum construction, including aluminum front and double-wishbone rear suspension helps to give the F-type with an ideal balance, necessary to improve the agility of a pure sports car. The new structural alloys in the construction generally results a high stiffness F. uses means of computer-assisted-mode programs to Jaguar lateral stiffness progress to 30 percent in key areas such as the front suspension mounting points, compared unlike other Jaguar models . This rigidity provides a basis for a precise point suspension system, excellent connectivity and driver response generate loyalty. Significantly begins valuable folding top, a hallmark exotic F-Type Jaguar and where the Heartline front is a single molded piece, using a 1000-ton press. Jaguar and others have developed new production techniques to deliver the structural integrity of the design and engineering in the F-type. The normal process of pouring the cold metal could not get the desired shape. Jaguar engineers have developed a method in which
The F-type uses composite materials, rather than any previous Jaguar, with the structures below the threshold, and trunk lid made of high strength polymers. A complete analysis of the entire structure of the car, transmission, body and roof contributed to the gross vehicle weight of approximately 3,521 pounds (1,597 kg). Aluminum forms a large part of the commitment to sustainability, Jaguar did. "We are creating a new generation of Jaguar sports cars so it needs to be credible, both in design and execution point of view. ride, handling and agility - increasing the rigidity while reducing weight. The F-Type shows the new supercharged Jaguar, a supercharged V6 3-liter 340PS and 380PS. In the states of the melody and the 5-liter supercharged V8 S-Type Jaguar V8 with 495hp and 460 Nm of torque F All are equipped with the new Intelligent Stop / Start system to improve fuel economy in certain driving situations. The 380hp version that was produced exclusively for the F-Type, 339 pounds-feet of torque at 3.500 to 5.500 rpm. The V8 produces a torque curve produces largest with 460 foot-pounds in the range 2.500 to 5.500 rpm.
Besides the fast zero-to-60 acceleration, the new Jaguar F-Type compressor deliver exceptional performance and fusion step. Based on the 5-liter V8 Jaguar, 3-liter V6 shares all alloy. The supercharged V6 and V8 engines combine high compression, direct injection and twin independent variable (DIVCT) and a compressor to. Both the V6 and V8 heads, aluminum grab a control valve innovative. The new intelligent Stop / Start system offers advantages in fuel consumption in certain urban driving conditions. Start / Stop uses a dual-magnet, the system move quickly start the engine driver takes his foot off the brake pedal to the accelerator. With eight close-ratio in exchange Quickshift automatic, the F-Type Jaguar driver a speed that keeps the engine in its optimum power range. The transmission was developed specifically for the Jaguar F-Type prioritize acceleration. V6 Model S has a slightly lower gear ratio (higher number) 3.31:1 3.15:1 Final. Against the standard V6 model
Complete transfer of the F-Type - until the tire footprint - is to allow for an optimal response to ultra-fast transient torque that provides the driver with highly sensitive information optimized. The system improves the connectivity Quickshift sense, ensuring high performance, now on. The show can be seen that the car is driven by monitoring acceleration and braking, steering, accelerator and brake pedal activity, freight transport by road, the kick-down request, even if the vehicle is driven up or down. Recognize a driving style more energy, the transmission will automatically change and shift more aggressive shift points higher. Order to maintain the balance of the car during a pitch, the transmission is the management of the engine for the gas Blip automatically instruct the engine speed match. Manual drive for the driver at any time, either via the steering wheel mounted paddles or the console-mounted switch. If dynamic mode in the PLC Jaguar drive is selected, the transmission automatically climb to the red line and the engine just to keep the engine from stalling, so that total control in the hands of the pilot.
Dynamically configurable options is another first for Jaguar. This allows the operator to select the desired mode dynamic elements, such as the weight and direction of the response of the throttle valve can be sharp, while the two races Adaptive Dynamics models remain unchanged. The system allows the driver to record lap and split times and information on the gas and brake pedal inputs, and also generates the G-forces. A mechanical limited slip differential is standard on the S-Type R, which gives the driver the opportunity to explore the car excellent balance and the outer boundary of management control in a specific order. The V8 model is to maximize S with an electronically controlled differential to active traction and equipped to greater control. The aluminum frame of the F-type makes possible for the best connection for the driver from the road. Each steering behavior to change the transmission, throttle, brakes and suspension are connected finely ground, and where accurate as possible.
Mike Cross, Chief Engineer Vehicle Integrity, jaguar Agility in the Jaguar F-Type starts with his size that give the car a planted position "wheels pushed to the corners." The F-type measuring 176 inches (4470 mm) long on a 103.2-in. (2,622 mm) pitch. The width of the track on the rear of the front, 64.1-in. (1585 mm) and 62.4 inches (1627 mm). Overhangs front and rear also in mass concentration inside the shed that will help reduce the moment of inertia and the car lot to go just to make full use of this feature, make use of borrowed Jaguar engineers pay special attention to optimize the weight distribution from front to rear. To give the exact address in the response and feedback, F-Type uses a knuckleduster alloy front bezel and very stiff, even aluminum. In the Jaguar F-Type, the balance tips the course participation, the administration accessible, while compliance with good lap times. Dynamic mode allows the driver - at the push of a button - the sporty character of the vehicle to emphasize the response of the throttle to improve, steering weight gain, so that gear changes faster and top of the range increase of revolutions and the intervention threshold of the stability control . Dynamic mode also prevents automatic upshift when the transmission shifts to the manual mode.
In addition, the S-Type R and S V8 models equipped with adaptive damping suspension system dynamic Jaguar controls the vertical movement of the body rates, balance and tone. Dynamic mode in these models also offers lowest fixed by the Adaptive Dynamics system damping. "Jaguar has a unique heritage of sports cars immense then the general expectations for the F-type are in development, so it was not only a privilege but also a great challenge A Jaguar sports car is more than the speed sense absolute .. It is their mobility and their reaction to the actions of the driver, create the responses from milliseconds to connect to the vehicle. Ian Hoban, Vehicle Line Director F-type cabin skewed distribution reflects a clear focus on the driver. Attention to the driving experience A handle on the center console sweeps on the passenger side, outlined the position of the driver and wrap around the center console. Controls are ergonomically grouped by function, the driver can use easily, without taking his eyes off the road.
Ian Callum, Design Director for Jaguar A small three-spoke steering wheel with a diameter of a flat design also available as part of a package of optional equipment. Rotary knobs control the heating and cooling for each side of the machine. The controls are dual purpose: for vehicles with heated seats, pushing the hard left or right controls the temperature for that location. A row of toggle switches under the function selectors additional air conditioning, eco-design classic Jaguar sports cars. Both models are equipped with ends S darker than the standard V6 Jaguar F-Type. Reclining sport seats with power height adjustment and manual front / back movement, a nod to the weight reduction. Places available power can with the addition of lateral reinforcements for more force to be appointed high arch support. Since the machine drive is 20 mm lower than the Jaguar XKR-S, lowering the center of gravity and allows the driver to feel more connected to the device. The Jaguar F-Type is equipped with two audio systems premium British experts Meridian ™ audio available. The F-type OTR will be available.
