context_page_description: The Jaguar C-X16 is a concept hybrid electric sports car that was unveiled by Jaguar Cars at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show on 13 September. In April 2012, Jaguar announced that they will be manufacturing a new sports car based on the Jaguar C-X16 called the F-Type, which was subsequently shown to the public at the Paris Motor Show in September 2012.
context_section_description: The car body is constructed from aluminium, and is said by Jaguar to be the smallest car that they have made since the XK120 of 1954.  The drivetrain comprises a hybrid unit, combining a 375 bhp (280 kW; 380 PS) 332 lb⋅ft (450 N⋅m) supercharged 3-litre V6 petrol engine with a 92 bhp (69 kW; 93 PS) 173 lb⋅ft (235 N⋅m) electric motor and an eight-speed ZF automatic transmission.  The battery pack, which is mounted behind the front seats, is charged using a brake regeneration system.  The car can run on engine alone, motor alone or on both in combination.  Under engine power, the electric motor can also be activated to boost acceleration, in a similar way to the KERS system used in Formula 1 cars, by using a switch on the steering wheel.
