The Jaguar F-Type has always been known as one of the best balanced sports cars in the market today. The car, which takes its cue from the legendary E-Type, offers driving pleasure that can be used for everyday yet still go flat-out on the track. And the all-aluminum two-seat sports car somehow manages to excel at both ends of the spectrum.
Now, the five-year old stunner adds a few more toys to make life pretty interesting when driving. One such feature is the Touch Pro infotainment system that utilizes a tablet-style interface to sift through the various navigation, connectivity, and entertainment menus. It makes for easier operation while keeping drivers more focused on the road ahead.
The biggest news for the latest Jaguar F-Type update, however, is the world-first ReRun app. Developed together with GoPro, it is basically a black box-style application that records various vehicle data, along with video footage to help capture those memorable jaunts behind the wheel. Drivers can get info on speed, gear selection, throttle position, brake force, and even g-force. All these can easily be downloaded to the driver’s smartphone for quick review and playback.
Apart from being a great conversation piece, the ReRun app allows enthusiasts to capture their best driving times and use them to compare stats when going up against comrades on track. It’s pretty much like getting the car’s telemetry by race teams to help improve performance—just like what is being done in Formula 1. And you don’t need a large pit crew to do so.
With the Jaguar F-Type’s new ReRun app, you can truly get the best performance out of the car. And you now have evidence to show for it.
