There are no plans to produce the Jaguar C-X75, but the engine that gave the bulk of its power, the 502HP 1.6-liter turbocharged, four cylinder gasoline unit, may still have a chance. According to a report from Piston Heads, the F1-derived engine is still being developed and could make it to production.
Developed by Cosworth initially as a Formula 1 engine (before the FIA changed its mind and ditched 4-cylinder units for V6 engines for the 2014 season), the powerplant then found its way on to the Jaguar C-X75 prototype. Now, Cosworth’s principal engineer Andy Ball told the website that the engine is still alive with a road-car manufacturer.
