Jaguar C-X75 is a hybrid-electric, two-seat, concept car from Jaguar which debuted at the 2010 Paris Motor Show. The C-X75 concept produces 778 horsepower through four electric motors, each of which drives one of the four wheels. The batteries driving these motors are recharged using two diesel-fed micro gas turbines instead of a conventional four-stroke engine. It is described as an ideas model that will influence future design and technology
Jaguar announced in May 2011 intentions of building a limited production of C-X75's from 2013 to 2015, with a downsized boosted petrol engine instead of the micro gas turbines in the concept model. The plug-in hybrid supercar price was estimated between GB£700,000 - GB£900,000 depending on local markets differing taxations. A maximum of 250 cars were planned to be built in partnership with Formula One team Williams F1. The production version was expected to have an all-electric range of 50 km.
] In December 2012 the carmaker announced the cancellation of production due to the ongoing global economic crisis, saying that now was not the time to launch an £ 800,000 Supercar.
Jaguar announced its decision to continue working on five prototypes to be developed until May 2013. Up to three of these will then be sold at auction, while one will go into a future Jaguar museum, and the other will be kept by Jaguar for running demonstrations
