Jaguar's hybrid supercar is more than a concept

Back in September 2010 when Jaguar displayed their C-X75 hybrid super car at the Paris Motor Show there was an awful lot of "oh year, right" style comments from people who thought it would be just a show car concept.  Seems they were wrong.

Jaguar are now taking orders.

Warp factor five Mr Sulu

There is no specific delivery date and the price doesn't seem to have been set and echos of the XJ220 supercar of the 1980s should be ringing in the ears of anyone thinking of putting the £700K down these beasties are rumoured to be selling for.

Who says hybrids have to suck?

Its still an awesome device either way.  Exceptional performance and low emissions are provided by one electric motor per wheel and a kind of jet turbine engine which runs on regular unleaded.  The space age is now.
