Jaguar has revealed the interior of the upcoming Type 01 electric GT. The Type 01’s cabin is inspired by the Type 00 concept on which it is based and is as radical as its exterior design. Jaguar will debut the production-spec Type 01 in New York on October 6.

- Gets a driver's display and a central screen for AC controls
- Misses out on a rear windscreen, but features digital rearview cameras
Jaguar Type 01 interior revealed
4-seat electric GT has a minimalist cabin divided into four individual spaces
The interior design of the Jaguar Type 01 concept takes inspiration from the Type 00 concept, calling it “a concept car vision brought to production”. The production-spec model features a ‘central spine’ that runs the length of the cabin, dividing it into four individual sections – one for each passenger. This central spine has a brass finish and features a small screen at the front for operating the climate controls. This AC control screen and another display on the dashboard are being called "hidden on-demand technology", which, Jaguar says, is integrated into the EV's architecture.
The interior features a 2-spoke steering wheel with touch-enabled buttons and a distinct dashboard design for the driver and front passenger areas. There’s a digital screen in front of the driver and ‘strikethrough’ elements in front of the co-driver. Similar ‘strikethrough’ design elements are present on the top lip of the bonnet to fuse the Type 01’s exterior and interior design.
Which features do you want in Type 01?
A low, swooping roof can also be seen with panoramic glass, which is likely to feature customisable lighting patterns. The Jaguar Type 01 does not feature a rear windscreen but digital rearview cameras instead. It features four seats with dual-tone upholstery.
The doors sport the same brass finish as the central spine, but additionally feature Jaguar’s ‘leaper’ logo. Jaguar says that the Type 01’s interior is inspired by travertine stone (a type of natural limestone) and textures of artisan textiles for a “deeply sensorial experience”.
