The Jaguar XJ220 Is Back As A Gorgeous Concept Designed By Ian Callum

Ian Callum Designs Modern Jaguar XJ220 Concept for Callum Designs

— The Oogway View

Ian Callum's connection to Jaguar's design legacy gives this concept genuine weight — this isn't a random designer riffing on a famous nameplate, it's the man who shaped Jaguar's modern identity revisiting one of its most extreme moments. The XJ220 was a car defined by compromise and circumstance, so a clean-sheet interpretation free of production constraints is an interesting exercise. Whether it reaches production remains openly uncertain, which is worth holding onto rather than treating this as an announcement. For now, it's a serious designer's considered answer to the question of what that car could mean today.

Callum Designs previews what it says is a modern take on the iconic XJ220. If we’re lucky, it will go into production.
