Old Cat New Tricks

Owning a TWR Supercat is like having afternoon tea with a sledgehammer.’

TWR (Tom Walkinshaw Racing) announces the Supercat, a restomod based on the Jaguar XJS that blends classic design with cutting-edge technology.

Design involves collaboration with Khyzyl Saleem and Magnus Walker, combining motorsport heritage with contemporary aesthetics.

It is powered by a supercharged V12 engine producing 660 hp.

Paired with a six-speed manual gearbox for an analogue driving experience.

Integrated tubular steel framework enhances rigidity to manage the increased power.

Lightweight carbon-fibre body panels reduce weight by 9.3% compared to the original XJS.

Limited to 88 units, each priced from £270,000.

Deliveries are to begin in the summer of 2025.

TWR’s legacy includes iconic successes with Jaguar in the 1980s, such as wins in the European Touring Car Championship and the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

The Supercat pays homage to this motorsport pedigree while modernising the XJS for today’s enthusiasts.

It balances classic Jaguar XJS design cues with innovative engineering.

It offers an exclusive, high-performance driving experience at a premium price point.

The TWR Supercat is a limited-edition reimagining of the Jaguar XJS, merging TWR’s motorsport heritage with modern performance.

‘The Supercat proves you can teach an old cat new tricks.’
