Posted earlier today to Carscoops, the images show off a blue vehicle that looks rather like a Jaguar XF with a lift kit. We’re expecting it to be much more than that when it’s actually unveiled on Monday.
Called the C-X17 – a name that follows Jaguar’s concept car nomenclature tradition – the new utility-type vehicle won’t possess any off road ability like sister brand Land Rover’s offerings. Instead, it will be a more style and luxury-oriented model tasked with expanding Jaguar’s lineup. The C-X17′s production nameplate isn’t known.
The C-X17 also represents the expansion of Jaguar’s scalable architecture, which is set to underpin a wide range of the automaker’s upcoming models including its new compact sedan range.
Although not much is currently known about the C-X17, we should learn more later when it is officially unveiled at about 5:00 p.m. in Europe on Monday, September 9.
Jaguar dealers globally have long clamored for an SUV or a crossover, but the automaker’s management has had its hands full reinvigorating the brand’s passenger car lineup.
The production version of the C-X17 could bow as soon as the Geneva Motor Show next March.<![CDATA[
