This week on Dezeen, we revealed Jaguar's Type 01 electric car, which was designed to "inaugurate a new era" for the British car brand.

Created as the first car in a new era for Jaguar, the Type 01 was unveiled at an exclusive event in New York. The car is the production version of the Type 00 concept car that was revealed alongside a highly controversial rebrand two years ago.

Dezeen visited Jaguar's London flagship store ahead of the launch to take an exclusive look at the car.

With Grand Designs returning for another series, we interviewed the show's long-time host Kevin McCloud, who considered how British architecture has changed since the show launched in 1999.
