Jaguar Type 01 interior revealed with four-seat layout
By William Fletcher MBE, Chief Executive Officer, New Reg Limited
Jaguar has shown the interior of its Type 01 electric grand tourer, featuring four individual seats, a full-length central spine and no rear window.
Jaguar has pulled back the curtain on the cabin of its Type 01 electric grand tourer, and the interior is as unconventional as the exterior that caused considerable debate when it first appeared. According to multiple reports, the car seats four people individually, with a central spine running the entire length of the cabin from the dashboard all the way to the rear of the interior.
One of the more striking details is the absence of a rear window and, consequently, no traditional rear-view mirror. In their place, the car relies on camera-based technology to give the driver a view behind the vehicle. Jaguar has described some of the tech features as "hidden on demand", meaning they are concealed within the cabin surfaces when not in use rather than being permanently visible, which is intended to create a cleaner, less cluttered environment inside.
The materials used throughout the cabin draw inspiration from travertine stone, according to multiple reports, giving the interior a textured, architectural quality that sets it apart from the softer, more conventional upholstery choices seen in most production cars. The overall effect positions the Type 01 firmly as a design-led grand tourer aimed at buyers who want something that feels genuinely different from anything currently on the road.
