Jaguar Unveils F-TYPE Heritage 60 Edition to Celebrate 60 Years of the E-type
Exclusive Limited Edition Honors Jaguar's Legendary Sports Car
Jaguar is commemorating the 60th anniversary of the iconic E-type sports car in 2021 with the launch of a new, limited-edition F-TYPE. The F-TYPE Heritage 60 Edition features a supercharged 575 horsepower V8 engine and all-wheel drive. Only 60 units of this exclusive model will be produced and sold worldwide*, each meticulously hand-finished by the experts at Jaguar's SV Bespoke personalization division.
Distinctive Design Inspired by the Original E-type
The Heritage 60 Edition includes carefully curated commemorative features, such as Sherwood Green paint—a color originally used on the E-type and not available on new Jaguars since the 1960s. The cabin is appointed with Windsor leather in a unique dual-tone combination of Caraway and Ebony, a finish not typically offered on the F-TYPE.
Exclusive Details and Bespoke Touches
This limited edition boasts a unique aluminum console finish inspired by the E-type’s original interior mirror surround, along with special 60th anniversary E-type embroidery on the lightweight performance seat headrests. The car also carries the E-TYPE 60 badge, matching the E-type 60 Collection released earlier this year by Jaguar Classic. Finishing touches include commemorative tread plates, SV Bespoke branding, and Caraway-edged floor mats for a truly distinctive interior.
Official Statement from SV Bespoke
Mark Turner, Commercial Director of SV Bespoke, said: “Celebrating the 60th anniversary of the iconic Jaguar E-type is the perfect occasion to introduce the very first—and rarest—SV Bespoke edition, with only 60 cars being offered globally. Our close collaboration with Jaguar Design resulted in the F-TYPE Heritage 60 Edition, a contemporary tribute to the E-type. The classic Sherwood Green from the 1960s perfectly complements the modern F-TYPE, showcasing the enduring style of Jaguar’s sports cars.”
Convertible and Coupe Forms with Exclusive Features
The F-TYPE Heritage 60 Edition is available as both a convertible and a coupe. It features exclusive 20-inch diamond-turned, gloss black alloy wheels, bold black and chrome exterior accents, and black brake calipers for a distinctive, sporty look.
Performance and Engineering Excellence
Based on the F-TYPE R introduced in December 2019, the Heritage 60 Edition comes exclusively with all-wheel drive. It benefits from enhanced dampers, anti-roll bars, and suspension joints for an engaging driving experience. Power comes from Jaguar’s supercharged 5.0-liter V8 engine, delivering 575 horsepower and 700 Nm of torque, ensuring remarkable performance in all conditions.
Impressive Speed and Acceleration
The F-TYPE Heritage 60 Edition sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds (0-60 mph in 3.5 seconds), with an electronically limited top speed of 300 km/h (186 mph).
Advanced Driver-Focused Technology
The latest F-TYPE offers a range of advanced technologies for drivers, including a customizable 12.3-inch high-resolution digital instrument cluster, the Touch Pro infotainment system, smartphone connectivity package, and standard Apple CarPlay integration.
Handcrafted Production in the UK
All Heritage 60 Edition models are built at Jaguar’s Castle Bromwich facility in the UK, before being hand-finished by the SV Bespoke team at the Special Vehicle Operations center in Warwickshire.
Jaguar Classic: Honoring the E-type Legacy
In addition to the F-TYPE Heritage 60 Edition, Jaguar Classic is marking the E-type’s 60th anniversary by creating six pairs of restored 3.8-liter E-type models from the 1960s, honoring the legendary “9600 HP” and “77 RW” vehicles under the E-type 60 Collection.
