The C-X17 is a concept from Jaguar that will be unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show.

The concept is built on a new, aluminum monocoque that will be used in production cars starting in 2015. Jaguar calls it iQ[Al]. It is a modular, aluminum platform that can be adapted to a variety of vehicles. The first production car to use it will be Jaguar’s smaller luxury sedan built to take on the 3 Series that will arrive in 2015.

The engine is from Jaguar Land Rover’s new four-cylinder petrol and diesel architecture that it claims will allow for 300km/h top speeds (186mph) but with emissions below 100g/km of CO2.

The frontend is an evolution of the front of the XF but enlarged for the bigger crossover. It has a big, rectangular grill with LED lit air intakes. The headlights have a much more squinting look with LED running lights under them. The front styling flows delicately over the front fenders to the front door. The line is picked up again at the rear door and carried to the rear fenders and to the rear. The taillights squint in a similar way to the front, and the rear hatch is sharply pointed to give the concept a sense of movement. The roof is made from a single pane of glass with a thick border of the car’s platform surrounding it for support.

The interior seats four in individual sport seats, plus two more in folding rear jump seats. It is covered in black and white leather in several textures and brushed and anodized aluminum trim It shows off Jaguar’s next generation technology with an infotainment system called the Interactive Surface Console that uses multiple linked screens with Internet connectivity. It allows rear passengers to send screens to the front to share with front passengers and vice-versa.
