Farewell to Fire: 2024 Jaguar F-Type ZP Edition is the Final Combustion Hurrah
by AutoExpert | 11 October, 2023
Wow, guys, this is it—the end of an era for Jaguar and petrolheads everywhere. The 2024 F-Type ZP Edition isn't just another sleek sports car; it's Jaguar's last combustion-engined ride, and they're going all out. Only 150 of these are going to be made, so you know it’s going to be special.
Let's talk colors because these options are a tip of the hat to the legendary E-Type. You can either go for a classy Oulton Blue Gloss paint with a Mars Red and Ebony interior or a Crystal Grey Gloss paired with Navy Blue and Ebony. And check this—each car gets these cool, Porcelain White Gloss racing-style roundels on the doors. The grill and other exterior elements? All gloss black, giving it that final, swanky touch.
But this car is more than just eye-candy. Under the hood, it’s all business with the same 5.0-liter supercharged V8 engine from the F-Type R P575. That's a roaring 575 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque, folks. Strap in, because this beast rockets from 0 to 60 mph in a mind-blowing 3.5 seconds, with a top speed capped at 186 mph.
The wheels? Custom, baby. We're talking Black Diamond Turned 20-inch forged alloy wheels. Inside, you'll find a ‘One of 150’ SV Bespoke plaque. So yeah, you're driving a piece of history.
Jaguar's big boss, Rawdon Glover, puts it best: the F-Type ZP Edition is an "unrepeatable celebration" of everything we love about gas-powered Jaguars. And it’s the ultimate send-off before the brand shifts into an all-electric future.
So, there you have it—the 2024 F-Type ZP Edition is not just a car; it's a collector's item, a piece of history, and a heartfelt goodbye to combustion engines from one of the most iconic brands in the business.
