NEW DELHI: Jaguar has revealed a striking new logo and brand identity as part of its transition to becoming an all-electric car manufacturer by 2026. The rebranding aligns with the companyโs philosophy of โExuberant Modernism,โ characterized by bold designs, vibrant colours, and a refreshed version of the iconic leaping cat logo.
The revamped visual identity introduces four unique elements: the Device Mark, Artist Mark, Makerโs Mark, and Strikethrough. These symbols aim to reflect Jaguarโs emphasis on innovation, craftsmanship, and artistry. Moving away from traditional automotive branding, Jaguarโs new approach focuses on bold visuals rather than featuring its vehiclesโa nod to its โCopy Nothingโ philosophy.
The brandโs evolution sets the stage for its upcoming all-electric four-door GT concept, which will debut on December 2, 2024, during Miami Art Week. This highly anticipated reveal signals Jaguarโs ambitions to compete directly with electric vehicle leader Tesla.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk weighed in on Jaguarโs new logo on X (formerly Twitter), quipping, โDo you sell cars?โ The lighthearted jab drew a humorous response from Jaguar: โYes. Weโd love to show you. Join us for a cuppa in Miami on 2nd December?โ Musk did not respond further, but the exchange underscored the growing rivalry between the two brands.
Jaguarโs move to electrification comes as global automakers accelerate their shift to sustainable energy. With its rebranding, Jaguar aims to distinguish itself in the increasingly competitive EV market. The companyโs focus on modern, vibrant aesthetics reflects its commitment to originality and innovation.
