AWD Jaguar F-Type hitting the market in 2015, will debut in LA

Jaguar will add all-wheel drive variants of the F-Type coupe and convertible to the range in 2015.


Don’t expect any visual differences, except possibly some AWD badging, but the new all-paw version of the F-Type will debut at this month’s Los Angeles Auto Show before hitting the market in 2015.

The AWD Jaguar F-Type R coupe will hit 60mph (96km/h) in 3.9 seconds and is electronically limited to a top speed of 186mph (299km/h).

No word yet on which models in the range will receive AWD as an option, but Jaguar does say that the number drivetrain derivatives will grow from six to 14 next year.
