    Jaguar’s first family sports car, the F-Pace, performed a gravity-defying, record-breaking stunt on a 360-degree loop, one day ahead of its global motor show debut in Frankfurt. It now has a place in the record books for the largest ever ‘loop the loop’.

     

     

    The all-new Jaguar F-Pace, the world’s most practical  SUV (with the soul of a sports car), was driven with daring precision by expert British stunt driver Terry Grant. Grant undertook two months of intense physical and dietary training to ensure his body was prepared for the 6.5 G-Force, which is greater than the forces experienced by space shuttle pilots. 

     

     

    Precise physics, angles, speeds and dimensions were considered by a team of experts including structural engineers, mathematicians and safety experts. The car withstood extreme forces of 6.5G as it completed the giant 19.08-metre tall loop.

     

    The F-Pace vroomed through the specially built structure, using its sportscar-derived technology and safety features to complete the record loop and officially signal the opening of order books worldwide.

     

    Showcasing all the agility and litheness of the feline family that inspires its name, Jaguar had previously also resorted to putting the XF on a high-wire. (Read all about it here)

     

    To celebrate the launch of the all-new F-PACE, a special model called the First Edition, priced at £65,275 in the UK, will be limited to 2,000 units globally in the first year of production only. Powered exclusively by the 300PS 3.0-litre V6 diesel engine, the First Edition is distinguished by a unique metallic paint colour – Caesium Blue; a clear reference to the breakthrough C-X17 concept unveiled at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show.

     

    With its obsession with aerial stunts, we believe for Jaguar ‘the sky is the limit’.
