Jaguar F-Type ZP Edition: Jaguar’s ultimate petrol special

Expect a disaster in your local magazine for the Jaguar F-Type next year. After eleven years, the two-door sports car has to make way for shiny new electric cars. Jaguar wants to be fully electric by 2025. To wave goodbye to the F-Type in style, Jaguar is building 150 copies of the car above: Jaguar F-Type ZP Edition. Available as a coupe and convertible.

As you’d expect – and secretly – Jaguar is ending the era of the combustion engine sports car with a bang. The final F model gets a bigger V8. For more power, the eight-cylinder gets help from a supercharger. Every Jaguar F-Type ZP Edition gets a 5.0 liter V8 engine that produces 575 hp and 700 Nm.

Jaguar F-Type ZP Edition Performance

The engine is also available in the Jaguar F-Type 75, a car that was supposed to be the last petrol-powered sports car. Not quite a success, as it turns out. The performance of the ZP Edition is the same: 0 to 100 km / h takes 3.7 seconds and the top speed is limited to 300 km / h. There should be no difference in performance between versions with or without a fixed roof.

The inspiration for the ZP Edition comes from the E-Types of the sixties. And it appears also from other ZP Versions. Jaguar Classic has built a set of E-Types in the same style for some time. That means: same paint colors, different interior and a big white dot on the side. The ‘Roundel’ is hand mounted and adds an extra 100 hp, we reckon.

Additionally, the Jaguar F-Type ZP Edition sits on beautiful 20-inch alloy wheels and each car receives a ‘One of 150’ plaque. The last special F-Types will be built in 2024 before they leave the scene. You pay 236,252 euros for the coupe and 241,312 euros for the convertible. These prices include VAT and BPM.
