- Jensen International Automotive reveals the name of its new performance car.
- It’s called Interceptor GTX.
- Pre-production models will debut soon.
The rebirth of the Jensen brand is one step closer to reality. Today, Jensen International Group announced the name of its new performance car—it’s called the Interceptor GTX, and we’ll soon get our first look at the car.
The name Interceptor is nothing new to Jensen. It was this model that cemented the brand’s reputation as a builder of grand tourer style, and although the new model will take inspiration from the original, Jensen is adamant that this is not a follow-up car but rather something fresh and unique.
The GTX will feature an aluminum chassis wrapped in a handcrafted aluminum body. Under the hood will be a “bespoke V8” engine, but specifications remain elusive. We’ll likely learn more about this model when pre-production models debut, which Jensen says will happen in the second quarter, and the company is designing it to compete with Aston Martin.
David Duerden, Managing Director of JIA, said:
“Unveiled sixty years after the launch of the original Jensen Interceptor, the 2026 Jensen Interceptor GTX combines traditional craftsmanship and modern technology to confidently assert its contemporary character. We look forward to revealing our first prototype soon: a special, ultra-high-performance pre-production prototype that will pump up the adrenaline and take the Jensen into new territory.”
Motorcycle Pickup1: Jensen is one of the British car manufacturers that is trying to make a comeback and enter the busy segment. Ultra-luxury GT cars are already a niche product, and new entrants mean more competition.
