Jaguar badly needs a successful replacement for
the current lackluster X-Type model, but it can’t quite make up its mind on a design direction for its entry-level
luxury car. Automotive News reports that a front-running option may well be an all-wheel drive “shooting
brake,” or luxury station wagon.
We think a Jag shooting brake could be a big hit, and we’ve included
the picture of an XK-150 shooting brake in hopes that it might
jump-start Jaguar’s design team. Just trying to help.
Whatever the company decides, it had better move
quickly – 2005 production of the current X-Type fell 25 percent from the previous year, to 44,965 units.
