2011 Bertone Jaguar B99 GT Concept
No loss for me to follow news from the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, because there are interesting cars including concept cars, new cars, hybrid cars and tuning cars. One that concerns me at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, is the B99 design study for an entry-level Jaguar sedan by Bertone. On the same, I seen GT version of B99 concept is there.
Dubbed B99 (for the 99th anniversary of Bertone) the eye-catching concept car has a sleek coupe profile. The Italian design house’s B99 concept is just 4.5 meters long. Combine this with the very low height (1.35 meters) and the pretty wide body (1.95 meters), whose profile brings to mind the classic Jaguar XJ.
Added the suicide doors give it a distinctive appearance, but if Jaguar were to build a production model, it’s unlikely that they would remain. The narrow windows and the short front overhang give the car a dynamic yet classy look, while the front and the rear mirror each other, with very thin headlights/taillights and an oval grille whose form is replicated in the back.
While interior, Bertone Jaguar B99 Concept offer a classy environment, mixing brushed aluminium with leather and polished African walnut trim. The concept sports sedan is said to feature a newly developed full-hybrid drive, but further details remain unknown.
