The man behind the team that penned the new Jaguar XJ, Ian Callum, has let slip that his crews drawing instruments are again at work again, this time on an XJC. That would be a coupe version of the XJ, something not seen since 1978. In an interview with Motoring Sky during the new XJ's unveiling, Callum admitted that the English automaker hasn't just thought about it: "We've actually drawn one already, but who knows." That's probably as solid an indication that buyers might get a crack at a coupe model as we're likely to get for some time. If the car Callum's posse draws looks anything like the rendering shown here, then we almost think it's worth buying the sedan just to be able to help Jag build the business case for the coupe. In the interview, Callum also talks about the car's controversial blacked-out rear pillars and a series hybrid in the works.

Looks stunning in my opinion…very sporty - but at the moment, I like the sedan more!

Wow works very well as a coupe!!

Bring it on, Mercedes you gonna have to work miracles with the S-class coupe to play with this cat

Wow! stunning. Looks really good. (Unlike the sedan )

That chop looks amazingly good! The rear is suddenly more forgiving and the C-pillar makes the car look normal. Man I hope they change that C-pillar before production!

This is a good chop to show the XJ with the mainstream C-piller. I think that if Jaguar went this route, then the body colored strip that goes across the roof separating the panoramic roof from the rear screen should be blacked out, as is done with MB's panoramic spec'd models.
