Vehicle Description
The Jaguar E-Type, for the North American market, is a British
sports car that was manufactured by Jaguar Cars Ltd between 1961
and 1975. Its combination of beauty, high performance, and
competitive pricing established the model as an icon of the
motoring world. The E-Type with 150 mph top speed, sub-7-second 0
to 60 mph acceleration, monocoque construction, disc brakes,
rack-and-pinion steering, and independent front and rear suspension
distinguished the car and spurred industry-wide changes. The E-Type
was based on Jaguar's D-Type racing car, which had won the 24 Hours
of Le Mans three consecutive years beginning in 1955, and employed
what was, for the early 1960s, a novel racing design principle,
with a front subframe carrying the engine, front suspension, and
front bodywork bolted directly to the body tub. No ladder frame
chassis, as was common at the time, was needed, and as such the
first cars weighed only 2900lb. Few automotive brands can match
Jaguar when it comes to consistency in design. From the E-Type
forward, long wheelbase platforms with elongated noses and short
rear overhangs became the company's signature look. Enzo Ferrari
stated the XKE Roadster was the Most Beautiful Sportscar Ever
