The icon gets a metallic fill and shadow, the type gets wider and shorter, while its metallic look mimics the jewelry on vehicles like the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/jaguar/xj">XJ</a>.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.autoblog.com/jaguar">Jaguar</a> said that "[the] dramatic alteration, including significant changes to the brand symbols of the 'leaper' and 'growler,' is the most extensive change Jaguar has made to its visual identification in 40 years."<br />
<br />
But to us, one of the most interesting things about the the new logo is that it isn't exactly new: Jaguar had the practically the <a href="http://www.the-partners.com/?url=case-studies&amp;case=jaguar">same transformation to its logo</a> applied in 2002. <a href="/2012/03/10/jaguars-new-logo-receives-mixed-review/#continued">Follow the jump</a> to compare the differences and have a look at some of the print ad examples in the high-res gallery.<br />
