Special guest Ian Callum, Director of Design at Jaguar, sits down with Angus MacKenzie, Ed Loh, Kim Reynolds and Jonny Lieberman to talk about the new Jaguar F-Type and the inspiration behind the new two seater. The completely new roadster, arguably Jaguar’s first pure bred sports car in decades, pays homage to the spirit of the E-Type of the ’60s and ’70s and features a range of powertrain options; from a 340-hp 3.0L supercharged V-6 to a 5.0L supercharged V-8 making nearly 500 horsepower.

The crew also discusses the challenges of balancing engineering with design, and the safety regulations and legal limitations that need to be factored into designing a car.
