Jaguar has unveiled its third all-electric virtual gaming sports car – the Jaguar Vision Gran Turismo Roadster. Jaguar’s latest all-electric virtual race car joins the grid for the launch of Gran Turismo 7 – the latest and most immersive iteration yet of the world-renowned racing game.
The Roadster is designed to bring gamers the pure, visceral driving experience of an open-cockpit Jaguar sports car powered by three electric motors generating a total power output of more than 750kW and instant, maximum torque of 1200Nm. It features a swept-back aero screen directly in front of the driver. There’s a modern interpretation of the fin synonymous of the three-time Le Mans-winning D-type, aerodynamically optimised using the latest computational fluid dynamics tools to be deployable at speed for enhanced stability with minimal drag. The theme continues with the hand-crafted leather straps on the front fenders and iconic roundel lights in the front grille. Enhancing the experience still further are the new features that Polyphony Digital has developed for Gran Turismo 7which is available for PS4™ and PS5™ consoles from 4th March.
The Gran Turismo Creator and President of Polyphony Digital Inc Kazunori Yamauchi said, “We are delighted to announce the Jaguar Vision Gran Turismo Roadster, which completes the trilogy of Jaguar Vision vehicles for Gran Turismo 7.”
