The C-X17 is Blue and beautiful

Julian Thomson is of the guys behind the success of the C-X17 concept. He has been working with the British manufacturer along with Ian to craft several astonishing designs. We tried to understand what are his thoughts, when he sat down to design the C-X17 and what does he think of Jaguar’s first crossover concept.

Q1) Is there anything new on the C-X17, that will be seen on other Jaguar products?

Ans) It just represents our latest design, and you can see a lot of similarity in design. It is a new direction of movement as this is a crossover, and this is the first time we have a crossover. We have our own design language and we have picked up everything from it.

Q2) This is the first crossover for Jaguar, so what were the challenges you faced to design this?

Ans) Yes the crossovers are higher, longer and even wider. This is the first time we have made such products, hence we had to do a lot of studying of other crossover projects and at the same time also ensure that vehicle that we have designed retains all the Jaguar design aspects. 

Q3) If one had to pick a Jaguar crossover, one reason to buy over competition?

Ans) Well it is the best looking and it will also be the best one to drive when it comes out, so I give you two strong reasons.

Q4) One design element in the C-X17 concept that you really like?

Ans) The whole car I believe, its not outlandish or crazy, its just very well executed. I love the loops on fog lamps and I even love the interiors.

Q5) One or two words to describe the car.

Ans) Blue. Beautiful.
