AutoGuide caught up with Jaguar design direct Ian Callum at the New York auto show, where he confirmed that a "big surprise" is coming for jaguar.

“Within two years, we’ll have something that’s not driven by a petrol engine,” he said, before joking that it’ll have, “just a couple of hamsters.”

With patent filings for "EV-Type," "I-Type," and "I-Pace," models, one can dare to make a guess that Jaguar is going to come out with electric versions of the F-Type and F-Pace. Perhaps another jaguar will receive the treatment as well, or there could be an electric Jaguar that is completely unique.

But there will be more news or a new model or concept car from Jaguar before the year is out, with Callum promising an additional surprise, which is likely to debut at the Paris Motor Show this fall.

Anyone that has been with this forum long enough will know a CUV will be part of that line up, a vital product when you look at how well other car makers are progressing with CUV's of their own, from the Germans to Japanese. Jaguar doesn't want to miss out.
