Jensen Restomod Specialist Announces All-New Interceptor-Inspired V8 GT

The project targets enthusiasts who want a fully analogue driving experience as the brand moves beyond restorations to a clean‑sheet model.

Overview

  • Jensen International Automotive confirmed a ground-up luxury GT with an aluminium chassis and a bespoke V8, taking inspiration from the 1960s Interceptor.
  • The car will be hand-built in the UK in ultra-low numbers by a dedicated division, signaling a move beyond the company’s Interceptor restomod business.
  • A single teaser image shows classic cues such as a long bonnet and raked roofline, paired with modern detailing front and rear.
  • Autocar reports the powertrain is understood to be based on the latest Chevrolet Corvette’s 6.2-litre V8, a detail JIA has not confirmed.
  • Timing remains unclear, with some outlets suggesting a debut later this year and others saying next year, and a Goodwood reveal described as plausible but unconfirmed.
