- Jaguar confirmed that 2024 will be the final model year for the F-type coupe and convertible.
- Europe is getting a 75th anniversary edition to mark the end of the road, but information about a U.S. special edition isn’t available yet.
- The F-type first arrived for the 2014 model year and received updates throughout its 10-year run.
Jaguar will soon be without a sports car, as the F-type will disappear after the 2024 model year. A 75th anniversary model (pictured at top) has now been released for Europe to commemorate the end of its production run, and a JLR spokesperson confirmed to C/D that the 2024 F-type will be the last for the U.S. market as well. We’ll likely get some sort of final edition as well, but details aren’t available quite yet.
The F-type first arrived for the 2014 model year and was initially available only as a convertible. The coupe went on sale afterwards, and both supercharged V-6 and V-8 engines were offered. A turbocharged four-cylinder joined the lineup later on, as did an optional manual transmission for the V-6, but most recently the F-type slimmed down to a V-8–only, automatic-only powertrain lineup. For 2023, the supercharged 5.0-liter V-8 is offered in 444-hp and 575-hp states of tune. Pricing ranges from $74,675 for the P450 coupe up to $112,475 for the R convertible.
The Europe-market 75th anniversary edition—this number denoting 75 years of Jaguar sports cars, since the XK120—features numerous appearance tweaks, a unique color, and special badging. The U.S. version may incorporate a similar look, but we don’t have details on what the 2024 F-type lineup has in store for us. Jaguar says it will share more in December.
