The speculation about the possibility of a Jaguar SUV lasts a long time. Ford, a request addressed to him while they were the owner of the Jaguar in 2008, they denied it. The new owner of Jaguar, Ratan Tata (the boss at Tata Motors) asked - he denied it. Will it or not? Denials, on the contrary, some believe that competition can lead to the birth of this new breed of famous cat.
Jaguar SUV
A good reason to believe that the SUV might be the Jaguar in the future, because BMW doubled its previous sports utility model X5 with the X6 back in 2009. This demonstrates a commitment to a luxury SUV, which the Jaguar cannot afford to ignore. If BMW is successful, it is reasonable to conclude that Tata Motors will either have to add luxury to the Land Rover or Jaguar strength. Later it seems more believable than the previous one, since BMW and Jag were long-term competitors in the luxury / sports field.
The idea of a luxury SUV obviously gained traction. These vehicles are entering a niche market consisting of those who love a four-wheel drive truck, being surrounded by luxury. It's a bit exciting to be isolated from the elements, while at the same time putting it down - what's not to like about it?
So what are these denials about? Why is Tata against the Jaguar SUV? There are several reasons for this assessment. Tata Motors recently (late 2008) acquired Jaguar from the Ford Motor Company. Ford was already planning to add a top XK range with the XKR-R and pull up the rest of the XK and XJ models. By executing these plans at the initial stage of management, Jaguar will experience a smoother transition of ownership. In addition, Tata would like to see the previously untapped potential in the Jaguar line become a reality. The first priority will be the restoration of its luxury sedans and sports cars. Mr.Tata even has plans to create a new XE sports car line. This expected masterpiece will be lightweight, with all the new proposals and engine looks that are astounding. Finally, Tata believes that the Jaguar SUV will take sales from the already legendary Land Rover line.
Jaguar has already flirted with the idea of a utilitarian luxury car. Four-seater X Type Estate drive was released in Europe - available in Europe. Despite the fact that it is not an absolutely serious SUV, Estate has fulfilled the requirements of many users. Equipped with a four-wheel drive, it was impressive in road tests, including traction, driving and even forcing him to overcome the ski slope. The technology of the latest version of this car is surprisingly effective and allows you when some others fail. It’s not like Jaguar can’t be impressive in this market or even surpass it.
Competition is the real driver in this discussion. As mentioned earlier, BMW has already opened the door through which the Jaguar SUV could ever roll. Other companies that compete with Jaguar have come to the conclusion that they need luxury SUVs in their line to survive in North America. The $ 2.1 billion acquisition of Tata's Jaguar is not a limitation. Turning on any turn on the Jaguar is as silly as it is dangerous.
