Jaguar: Don’t Call It An SUV

Jaguar’s upcoming SUV, previewed last year with the fast-looking C-X17 concept, should not be defined as an SUV.

That’s according to an interview with Jaguar Land Rover boss Ralf Speth, who told the UK’s Autocar that “a Jaguar SUV is not possible”.

That doesn’t mean the brand has cancelled its SUV project, of course, but that SUVs “and 4x4s” are the domain of Land Rover.

“The Jaguar concept is far more road-orientated. It will need a different kind of name,” Speth told Autocar.
