CARBON CERAMIC*
Derived from motorsport technology, the optional Carbon Ceramic Braking system is available on
F-TYPE S
,
F-TYPE V8 S
and
F-TYPE R
. It is the most powerfully performing braking system ever fitted to a Jaguar road car.
Instantly recognisable with striking yellow calipers and offering up to a 21kg weight saving, it further reduces
unsprung mass with corresponding benefits to both ride and handling. The system features monobloc calipers
with 6 pistons at the front and 4 pistons at the rear.
Providing greater resistance to fade and wear, as well as delivering high levels of sustained performance in even
the most demanding conditions, the Carbon Ceramic Braking system was track tested over hundreds of hours
at long and short course race circuits across Europe. These included the Nürburgring, Rockingham in the UK
and Fiorano in northern Italy, which are all recognised as taking an extraordinary toll on brake components:
temperatures on the Carbon Ceramic discs reached between 600 and 900 degrees centigrade during fast
lap driving.
