    Jaguar has officially unveiled its new electric vehicle, the Type 01, marking the brand's most powerful road car ever produced. The big and sleek grand tourer follows a controversial rebrand from two years ago and arrives after the automaker ditched its previous pink branding.

    Why it matters

    The introduction of the Type 01 represents a dramatic transformation for Jaguar following years of preparation and a step away from its traditional lineup of luxury sedans and sports cars. The British automaker is positioning this large electric sedan as its first EV and the beginning of a major brand rebirth. Reviewers describe the vehicle as a gigantic grand tourer with proportions bordering on vulgar and note its heavy city impracticality.
