La Jaguar F-Type est la nouvelle voiture de sport décapotable lancée par la marque. Cette merveille de technologie utilise l’aluminium comme matériau principal et Ian Callum, le directeur du design pour la marque, argue un réel focus sur le pilote. Et de fait les commandes sont inspirées du cockpit des avions de chasse.
Design matters at Jaguar, but the British car-makers have only recently evolved their overall aesthetic. A few years back, when they unveiled the Jaguar C-X75, we got a glimpse of where the creative direction was heading for the sportscar facet of their…

In this movie we filmed at Clerkenwell Design Week earlier this year, clay modeller for car brand Jaguar Charles Douglas tells Dezeen editor-in-chief Marcus Fairs how he turns a designer’s sketch into a 3D form that can be scanned for manufacture.
Speaking in the Farmiloe Building, Douglas explains how he uses an armature milled to 50 millimetres lower than the intended finished surface of the clay as a guide to sculpt to the correct level.

He demonstrates how he uses a slick tool to work the clay in different directions to achieve the perfect shape and thickness.

Although there is a certain amount of craft and creativity in his role, Douglas says that he is restricted by “engineering points all around the bonnet and crash points on the bumper,” as well as other control points because “you’ve got to get an engine in there and you’ve got to get in and out”.

Extensive car porn from the most prestigious annual automotive weekend
Pebble Beach is to vintage automobiles what the Superbowl is to football and Art Basel is to art fairs. The group of events, anchored by the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, include shows, auctions and races each presenting the most celebrated works of automotive design and engineering. Drawing collectors, racers and enthusiasts from all over the world, we felt it was about time to see what this weekend is all about.
Thousands of cars and tens of thousands of fans provide an incredible opportunity to see some of the most beautiful and most innovative examples of automobile design. Driving around town is a sensory overload, with whiplash-inducing head turns to see everything from an Ariel Atom 3 to a pristine 1957 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz convertible. It’s also an increasingly important event for auto manufacturers, many of whom introduce new cars, offer test drives of new models, and premier concept cars. Many of the events differentiate the years by hosting specific makes, models or celebrating anniversaries, and this year was no exception. We covered many of the activities and captured more than 2,500 images. Here are some of our favorites.
The Quail, a Motorsports Gathering, celebrated the 50th Anniversary of the Jaguar E-Type, Ferrari’s America and Superamerica models, Pre- and Post-War Racing Cars, Post-War Sports Cars, Super Cars, and Sports and Racing Motorcycles. The 1952 Glocker/Porsche Roadster was one of our favorites.
A highlight at The Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion at the Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca was seeing so many Jaguars on the track celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the E Type.
Getting up close with the beautiful cars at the auctions—from barnyard finds to impeccably restored rarities of all types—provides unlimited fantasies of ownership. Favorites from The RM and Gooding & Company auctions included a 1960 Ferrari 250 GT and a 1956 Volkswagen Karman-Ghia.
The Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, which takes place on the celebrated 18th fairway of the Pebble Beach Golf Links, is arguably the world’s most prestigious vintage automobile show. Each year 200 cars are selected to participate. This year’s focus included Stutz, Jaguar E-Types, Ferrari GTO, early Rolls-Royce Silver Ghosts and Italian Motorcycles. We were there as the cars were driven onto the fairway at sunrise—an opportunity to not only see these vintage beauties actually drive, but also a chance to see the incredible pride, passion and focus of their owners.
