Jaguar Land Rover unveils ‘Bond car’

AMMAN, October 4, 2015

Jaguar Land Rover recently unveiled the Jaguar CX-75, the car which James Bond drives through the moonlit streets of Rome in an iconic high-speed chase scene in one of the new Bond adventure, Spectre.

The British carmaker also unveiled the Range Rover Sport SVR and the iconic Land Rover Defender at the palatial Thurn und Taxis in Frankfurt.

The C-X75 supercar, named the most advanced Jaguar ever created, was provided by Jaguar Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations (SVO) in collaboration with development partner Williams Advanced Engineering headquarters in England.

Specially modified Land Rover Defenders and the fastest, most powerful Land Rover ever, the Range Rover Sport SVR, also star in major action sequences shot in Austria. The Defenders were constructed by the JLR Special Operations division with huge 37-inch diameter off-road tyres and enhanced body protection to tackle the challenging terrain of the snow-covered mountain roads used for filming.

Managing director of Jaguar Land Rover Special Operations, John Edwards, said: "For Jaguar Land Rover to once again be a part of the iconic vehicle line-ups in one of the most celebrated film franchises in the world represents a proud moment for us. It’s an incredible opportunity to showcase production and concept cars alike and we look forward to continuing this relationship well into the future.”

Spectre, the 24th James Bond film is scheduled for worldwide release in November.
