Lmao, Jaguar jumping on old trends that most of the sane world now laughs at.

The ad agency who did this is living in a bubble and is completely out of touch on the zeitgeist and who the market is for Jaguar and the brand's identity.

And here's the new logo-hood ornament: jr
"Psilocybin, also known as 4-phosphoryloxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (4-PO-DMT)"
"Imagery in cave paintings and rock art of modern-day Algeria and Spain suggests that human use of psilocybin mushrooms predates recorded history."

Holy shit this gets me so excited for BRAND™.

Doesn't this just motivate you to buy Jaguar vehicles that are coming out?

They even got a new stylized typeface and EVERYTHING. Holy SHIT. Imagine the absolute bosses those marketers are who cooked that up. All of you are just jealous that your art won't be shared with the world.

Did you see what they did with the lowercase a and everything else being upper-case? Just sick. Damn.

I need to buy a Jaguar right now.

LOL. Overnight, Jaguar went from being forgotten about to being laughed about.

Oh well. They're irrelevant at this point. At least the noise my SVR makes will immediately grow hair on your chest...even for a they.

They say "copy nothing" but I swear I saw this in a Jill Biden Christmas special that was stolen from a Target commercial.

Super dumb brand direction aside… Jaguar indeed seems to be building a sedan of some sort.

I hope they put the SVR engine in it. But they won’t.

What I've found:

Their entire lineup will be electric. Hence the unique, uh, talent in the commercial. Whatever.

Gone are British Racing Green, grays and the rest. All vehicles will be a Skittles rainbow. Bright loud colors only. Hence the Skittle brigade commercial. Whatever.


I give them less than a 50 percent chance of survival.
The UK is a steamy hot mess anyway.
Whatever.

The cap-ex to flip from ICE to EVs while at the same time having the expertise to pull that off and make a profit from selling the subsequent EVs is massive. They would not survive this WITH the greatest ad campaign ever in the history of humans.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here... how about the company just build some hardware that the market wants to buy. Invent and deliver the 400-mile EV that recharges in 5 minutes and it would be the leader in the EV market space.

I would not make this bet.

For perspective... EVs are absolutely gaining traction. They are certainly the future. And the think tanks at Jaguar certainly know more than we as consumers know.
I'm sure they have a plan.

I invest in a couple of EV charging infrastructure stocks and let's just say, they are rising. 😉

Your bias is clouding your judgment. Jaguar will be totally shut down before ethe end of the decade unless Tata keeps funneling money into them.
