Jaguar Plans New Sports Car Concept For Paris Show

It's just another 'teaser', so don't phone your dealer yet...

Jaguar has an annoying trick of teasing us with gorgeous new sporty car concepts that won't ever get built, and it seems we're all going to be played like fiddles again next month at the Paris motor show.

According to reports from JLR's owner Tata, (originally sourced by Autocar magazine's Indian franchise), Jaguar is 'setting phasers to stun' once again, this time by pulling the wraps off a new XK-sized design study.

They say the 'new XK' concept won't go into production, but has been cooked up to introduce a new styling direction for the marque, as well as being a showcase for Jaguar's forthcoming hybrid technology.

We've borrowed the magazine's rendering, and there are a few more details here which are interesting should you be minded to jump ship for a few moments.

Meanwhile, we'll take a minute to reprise some of the other Jaguar show concepts that we've enjoyed lusting after. Albeit (so far) in vain...
