It seems a weird thing to do a rebranding before actually showing any of the new cars, but we live in weird times.
https://www.whichcar.com.au/news/jag...rand-new-logos For a bit of perspective, this is the moment where Jaguar ceases it's entire lineup and then returns with 3 new all electric luxury crossovers, at a much higher price point. This strategy was developed by Thierry Bollore who is no longer CEO, a few years ago. As to be expected, the internet has roasted the marketing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQ1XSE8QRhE The cars are revealed next week. Can only hope they are stunners.

I give it 18 months before they get bought out by another company after completely ruining themselves.

Then some potato CEO comes in, completely turns the formula that works on its head, does this and then leaves before it gets implemented? WTF? |

Looking at those promo images I reckon it will be another DEI disaster.
It's cost the computer games industry hundreds of millions just recently.

I can't even fathom what they'll bring out and how they'll justify their price point. Heck, even their current price point for many models are crazy (would you buy an Aston or a Jag?!). The F type LP or something such is $399,999!!! Sent from my Pixel 8 using Tapatalk
