Jaguar Back in the mid-1950s, the Jaguar D-Type was what passed for a hypercar. It bristled with cutting-edge technology, and D-Types won Le Mans every year between 1955 and 1957. Today, the company revealed it is putting the racecar back into production, with a run of 25 new D-Types. The cars will be hand built at the Jaguar Land Rover Classic Works in Warwickshire in the UK using the original drawings and documents from the time. The 1950s is when Jaguar cemented its reputation as a company on the cutting edge of automotive technology.
