Jaguar is ending production of its popular two-door sportscar, the F-Type. The British car maker has also announced that the last F-Type produced at its Castle Bromwich facility will join the prestigious Jaguar Heritage collection, exactly 50 years after the last Jaguar E-type ended production. This milestone marks the end of an era for Jaguar’s iconic models while heralding the beginning of a new chapter for the British marque.
The last F-Type, a convertible powered by a 5.0-litre V8 petrol engine and finished in ‘Giola Green’, mirrors the design of the final 5.3-litre V12 engine powered E-type Series III Convertible produced in 1974. This historic F-Type will be entrusted to the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust where it will join its E-type predecessor. Both vehicles will be showcased in special events and activities.
Launched in 2013 as a convertible, the F-Type was Jaguar’s first two-seat sportscar in nearly 40 years. The coupe version followed suite and was launched in 2014. Jaguar has produced 87,731 units of the sportscar since 2013, and the model will remain available until early 2025.
