In this episode from The Fast Lane Car, the guys dive headfirst into the controversial new Jaguar concept, the Type Z00. This car has caused quite a stir with its daring rebranding and unconventional design choices. Some are questioning whether Jaguar's bold move will pay off in the long run. The commercial for the Type Z00, featuring quirky scenes but minimal focus on the car itself, has divided opinions, with some dubbing it "too woke."

The team takes a closer look at the unique design elements of the Type Z00, drawing comparisons to vintage vehicles with its long hood and striking proportions. Despite its brutalist and unconventional aesthetic, the car manages to make a bold statement in the world of automotive design. Inside, the futuristic features, such as a divider between passenger and driver seats, hint at a new direction for Jaguar's design language. However, criticisms arise regarding the minimalist approach and hidden screens in the interior.

Jaguar's departure from its traditional British roots and heritage is a topic of discussion, as the Type Z00 represents a significant shift for the brand. The high price point and all-electric nature of the vehicle also raise questions about Jaguar's positioning in the competitive market. The team invites viewers to share their thoughts on whether Jaguar's risky new direction will lead to success or backlash in the automotive industry.
