#Jaguar C-X75

[carsthatnevermadeitetc]

Callum Jaguar C-X75, 2024. Ian Callum’s design and engineering consultancy has built a second road-legal Jaguar C-X75. The C-X75, designed by Callum, was presented at the 2010 Paris motor show but the project was cancelled before production began due to the global economic crisis. However a number of cars were built by Williams Advanced Engineering for the James Bond film Spectre. It is one of these cars that has been rebuilt by Callum restoring much of the functionality that the C-X75 would have had if it made it to production. This includes control electronics allowing for road and track drive modes and an active aerodynamics package to improve stability. The interior has been fully refitted and bought up to date with 3 touchscreens and critical controls (including the ignition button) placed on the roof-mounted console.

Jaguar C-X75 Concept Street-Legal Conversion by Callum

The Jaguar C-X75 concept car. This never actually went to production but at least 3 of the *actual* hybrid supercar concepts were put together. These used a small diesel engine to drive two turbines, which in turn powered the electric motors. Any actual figures are mostly speculation.

Another 6 or 7 were made as bare-bones models with V8 engines for production of the James Bond 007 movie "Spectre" of which at least a couple remain in museums.

This would fit in with the Corpo world of Cyberpunk 2077.

Like everybody, I too was shocked when Jaguar first showed their new branding. Didn't really understand it, but also left benefit of the doubt, expecting that there should be more to it. And now, seeing the new elements in situ, applied to a (concept) product, it does make more sense. (The new wordmark still isn't convincing me though.)

As for the concept car itself, I think this Type 00 should have some longevity. We'll find out whether it'll be timeless like the C‑X16 (F‑Type) and C‑X75 (C‑X75), but I can see how this can still inspire in years to come. And I bet Elon Musk is jealous that Jaguar has this, while he's ended up with awkward, supposedly‐“futuristic‐like cyberpunk” objects like the Cybertruck and the Cybercab.

The Aston Martin DB10, created exclusively for James Bond in Spectre, marks the first time a car was specifically designed for the film series. Bond first encounters the DB10 in Q’s lab, where he learns it has been reassigned to Agent 009. However, Bond “borrows” the car for a rogue mission in Rome, leaving a bottle of chilled Bollinger in exchange. The DB10 is then seen driving through Rome's iconic landmarks before arriving at a SPECTRE meeting. As Bond flees the meeting, SPECTRE agents fire machine guns at the car’s bulletproof body armor and glass. A high-speed chase ensues as the new SPECTRE agent, Hinx, pursues Bond in a Jaguar C-X75 through the city streets. During the chase, Bond attempts to use the DB10’s weapon systems, even though he is unfamiliar with their operation. He first tries the ‘Backfire’ button, which reveals a twin-barrelled machine gun extending from the rear Aston badge, but discovers it is out of ammo. The ‘Atmosphere’ button only activates the car stereo. As they race alongside the Tiber River, Bond engages the ‘Exhaust’ button, unleashing a twin flamethrower. Finally, he presses the ‘Air’ button, which deploys the sun-roof ejector seat, allowing him to escape just before the car crashes into the river. As Hinx watches the Aston sink, Bond safely parachutes away and disappears into the night.

The DB10 features a chassis based on a modified V8 Vantage with a longer wheelbase, powered by a 4.7-liter V8 engine. Q claims the DB10 can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.2 seconds, although Aston Martin states a top speed of 190 mph and a 0 to 60 mph time of 4.7 seconds. The car’s sleek design includes a shark-inspired nose where the grille sits in shadow beneath the main feature line, hinting at its stealthy character. The body panels are made entirely of carbon fiber, exposed on the sills and diffuser, and it has a full clamshell bonnet with a heat-mapped perforation pattern, negating the need for a vent surround. The designers drew inspiration from the classic DB5, working to ensure that when viewed in profile, the DB10 exhibits a single elegant shoulder line running from front to back. Only ten of these concept cars were built, with eight used to film key scenes in Spectre and the remaining two reserved for promotional purposes. Director Sam Mendes contributed to the design process, requesting a car with “clean, clear lines, something classic where it is almost impossible to place its year of birth,” aiming for a design that felt timeless, somewhere between the early ’70s and now.

The main filming sequence involving the DB10 was shot in Rome over three weeks in March 2015, involving 350 crew members and 250 blockers to secure the roads. The production shut down a 4 km section along the River Tiber, including five bridges, using a total of 15 locations such as the road leading up to the Vatican and Via della Conciliazione. Preparations for the shoot included location scouting a year prior, with pre-production beginning in October 2014. During testing, the stunt team went through a pair of tires every 10 minutes. Gary Powell coordinated the stunt driving while Mark Higgins was behind the wheel of the DB10.

In the first Cars film there's a scene (the same scene where he offers to take McQueen tractor-tipping) where Mater mentions a girl he used to know, Dorene, and says that "she looked just like a Jaguar... Except she was a truck!"

Anyways in Cars 2 Holly Shiftwell is partially based on a Jaguar C-X75. So I guess Mater has a type?

Callum designs has taken one of the surviving Jaguar C-X75 stunt cars (as seen in 007 ‘Spectre’), finished it with the V8 from the Jaguar F Type and assembled a one off supercar that is really something special.

This is how it should be done.
