Jaguar has announced lower starting prices for its F-Type Coupe and Convertible models for 2017. The F-Type’s adjusted MSRP comes about two months after Jaguar announced lower prices for some of its 2016 models.
Prices for the 2017 F-Type Coupe will start from $61,400, representing a price cut of $3,600. The open-air F-Type Convertible will list from $65,400, or $2,700 less than the outgoing model. Jaguar says the new MSRPs are intended to improve the “competitive value position” of the F-Type range.
The cheaper F-Type models will ship with Jaguar’s supercharged 3.0L V6, rated at 340 horsepower. A six-speed manual will be equipped as standard while an eight-speed auto will be available as an optional extra.
In order to accomplish a lower price point, Jaguar has swapped out the F-Type’s previous 14-way power adjust seats for a six-way adjustable partially electric setup. However, Jaguar has kicked in a valet mode and solar attenuating windshield glass as standard, which the automaker says makes the new F-Type line a $1,700 value compared to the 2016 cars.
The 2017 Jaguar F-Type is scheduled to land in dealer showrooms in late spring 2016.
