Jaguar will reveal the F-Pace performance crossover later this month at the Frankfurt Motor Show. It is a production version of the C-X17 concept car, a five seater and the fourth new product from Jaguar in 2015.

It will be built in Solihull when it goes on sale next year.

Gerd Mauser, Jaguar Land Rover chief marketing officer, said: “2015 is Jaguar’s 80th anniversary and it has been a monumental year of transformation for the brand.

“First with the introduction of the innovative Jaguar XE and followed closely by the class-leading all-new XF, our product revitalisation continues to move at a very confident pace.

“Today is a proud moment for Jaguar as we launch with our first performance crossover.”

The Jaguar F-Pace will be joined at Frankfurt by three new Jaguar products, the enhanced 2016 Jaguar XJ and the all-new XF, which will both be available to view in retailers across Europe from September, along with the award-winning new Jaguar XE.

The 2016 Jaguar F-Type range, which now includes all wheel drive and manual transmission options in coupé and convertible body styles, will also star at the show.
