Jaguar Land Rover has filed trademark applications for the I-Pace, I-Type and Velar, two of which are expected to be electric models.
The British company is already known to be working on a new range of electric vehicles and its first all-electric model will be an SUV. This model is expected to take the I-Pace name for production. It will incorporate styling from the C-X75 hypercar, and is reported to offer a range of around 482.80km. Sources suggest that the all-electric SUV could use electric motors mounted at each corner.
The SUV is likely to be revealed at this year’s Paris Motor Show in October, before going on sale in 2017. When launched, the electric SUV will rival the Tesla Model X, Audi Q6 e-tron and Volvo’s planned electric version of the XC90, which is due in 2019.
The second trademark, I-Type, hints at an all-electric version of the F-Type sportscar. However, it could also be used for electric versions of the XE and XJ sedans.
Additionally, Jaguar Land Rover also filed a trademark application for the Velar name. The name has been previously used on the original Range Rover prototypes in 1969, which suggests that the badge may be used on an upcoming version of the luxury SUV.
