Jaguar Million-Dollar C-X75 Hybrid Supercar in 2013

The British automaker has just announced its intention to produce a limited run of 250 C-X75 supercars in partnership with Formula 1 team Williams, however the retail model will eschew the craziest aspect of the original design -- the twin turbine engines at the back. Those will be replaced with a four-cylinder, turbocharged petrol engine, which will aid the four electric motors (one attached to each wheel). Don't worry, though, this tweak has actually made the C-X75 accelerate even faster, as it's now rated to go from 0 to 60mph in under three seconds. 2013 is when the earliest production of this road-faring beast is expected to commence, with prices starting at £700,000 ($1.15 million), and there's even a glimmer of hope that a version with the gas turbines will also be built at some point down the line.

Damn that's a clean ass Jag. Glad to hear they're making another supercar. Really liked the old XJ220.

The design looks supercar-esque enough, but a four cylinder engine? Really? I mean, I know it's a hybrid and all, but it doesn't exactly sound very super at all.
