Jaguar's £140k EV spotted testing in the Arctic Circle ahead of summer unveiling

Jaguar has moved to quash rumours that it is considering a U-turn on its all-electric reboot by releasing images of its new battery-powered £140,000 luxury four-door GT undergoing winter testing ahead of its summer unveiling. Reports emerged last month that bosses had instructed engineers in Britain to develop a hybrid drivetrainover growing concerns that potential customers with range anxiety might not want its new breed of EVs. But having since rubbished the speculation, the British brand - now owned by Indian giant Tata Motors - has leaked a selection of images and footage of its first 'new Jaguar' taking to the ice in Lapland months before it's due to be revealed fully. A selection of Jaguar's 150 electric prototypes have been pictured gliding over the snow and ice in the Arctic Circle as part of its 'extreme winter tests' conducted in temperatures as low as minus 40°C.
