JAGUAR has unveiled a striking coupe concept at Frankfurt, which offers clues to the company's future design philosophy.

Managing director Jonathan Browning said: 'We challenged our designers to show how the Jaguar 'look' could advance in the years ahead, to reflect the company's transformation from niche manufacturer to major player in the premium car sector.

'This represents a long-term vision though, rather than anything that we will see tomorrow. The R-Coupe provides an insight into Jaguar's long-term future design philosophy, reaffirming our commitment to create cars that stir people's emotions.'
