Jaguar is a top-tier luxury car brand used by the British royal family, selling luxury sedans, sports cars, and coupe SUVs. It was founded in 1922 and is headquartered in the UK. Main models include the I-PACE, XJ, XF, F-Type, XK, Cambridge Limited Edition, etc. The important milestones in Jaguar's development are as follows: In 1935, the first Jaguar model, the SS100, was born. In 1953, with its newly developed secret weapon, the "disc brake," Jaguar began its undying legend on the Le Mans circuit. In March 2004, Jaguar officially entered the Chinese market. In July 2009, the all-new Jaguar XJ made its global debut. In February 2014, the all-wheel-drive version of the Jaguar XJ successfully challenged the world's extreme low temperatures. In January 2015, Jaguar announced the mass production of the C-X17 concept car, naming it the F-PACE. In December 2020, it ranked 165th on the 2020 World's 500 Most Influential Brands list.
Since childhood, I've been fascinated by cars, especially the stories of legacy manufacturers. The Jaguar brand reminds me of its quintessentially British heritage. Founded as early as the 1930s by William Lyons in England, those classic E-Type models remain highly revered among collectors today. Design-wise, their elegant lines exude British sophistication, with manufacturing bases long established in Coventry. Although acquired by India's Tata Group in 2008, which enhanced its global operations, the brand's core values - meticulous craftsmanship and British aesthetics - remain entirely unchanged. I see this as a family legacy; despite changing ownership, its soul remains thoroughly British to the core.
