For all companies, there comes a time when a rebrand is needed—either to attract new customers, to keep the old ones interested, or both. A rebrand can take a company to unprecedented heights or unexpected lows.

Currently, vehicle company Jaguar is in the middle of rebranding, and so far, it seems that their case is the latter one. It’s all because people online aren’t satisfied with the so-called “wokeness” that the brand is trying to push with their ad, in which they don’t even show a single car.

I hate the trend for minimalist logos and logo less brand names in san serif fonts. I think traditional logos don’t look tired but show heritage, and they look classy on some brands. Some logo plates were a real work of art. Cadillac used to have ducks! Where are the ducks? If Rolls Roys ever ets rid of the spirit of ecstasy and the RR logo we in trouble. Jaguar used to produce some of the most beautiful cars. They are still nice but less elegant and classic. Even the ford era cars were cool. The XJ sedan had a “look” from the 1968 series 1 to the end in 2009 with the introduction of the 351, which is nice but boring.

Why are there rocks and dirt? Is it a desert? Is it a road in the desert? Why is it pink? Is that rock a car, like Spongebob's mobile boulder? Why isn't there a car in the ad? Did they have an accident? Were they fined?...

    I know they're gorgeous and seductive, but in the luxury sports car category, they suck. They have always been considered unreliable, which makes maintenance/repairs all the more costly. There are so many luxury sports cars on the market that consistently rank higher, why waste your money on some vehicle they can't even pronounce properly. The American ja-gwaar is closer to the Belizean pronunciation.

    Well said. And, not just @ Jaguar, I’ve worked for a couple dozen companies and consulted with dozens of clients worldwide, and it’s ubiquitous - particularly in larger organizations. Rarely adds value or drives growth, instead almost always creates more cost, time waste and, sadly, cynicism amongst those who do real work on behalf of real clients, products and needed functions.

    Now, the day has come, and the rebrand is here. Starting from 2026, the company will only be manufacturing and selling electric cars. With this news, they also launched a new logo, marketing slogans and an ad showing it all off. 

    In this 30-second video, there are diverse people shown in bright colors, with slogans like ‘break moulds,’ ‘create exuberant,’ and probably the main one, ‘copy nothing’ displayed on the screen. At the end of it, there is a new logo shown – “JaGUar”, with seamlessly blended upper and lower case characters in visual harmony. Interestingly, for an ad from a car company, there are no cars shown.

    The latter “flaw” is one of the reasons why the rebrand wasn’t met with much enthusiasm. Even Elon Musk tried “roasting” them for this by tweeting on his platform, “Do you sell cars?”. The Jaguar brand didn’t give in to the billionaire’s “roast,” and suggested he come to Miami on December 2nd and see their new lineup. But Elon wasn’t the only one making this point online. 

    This wasn’t the only issue people had with the rebrand. One of the other heavily talked about issues was that this new brand look didn’t represent its actual customer, which sounds kind of ironic seeing that the company is rebranding to be more inclusive

    I have never wanted a Jag less in my life.

    What this claim means is that basically, the company that owns Jaguar, Tata motors, isn’t British, so they lost a sense of how a British brand like Jaguar should look, thereby taking away its heritage. The company was created in 1922, but made its name when they started manufacturing eye-catching sports cars, and ever since, they have remained a luxury brand. 

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Luxury is something that not everyone can have, something that is limited to a certain group of people. So, when Jaguar now strives to be more inclusive, it’s understandable why some people are displeased.

    If it’s attainable by more people from different walks of life, luxury (which is also sometimes linked with British, especially royal British culture) is not the same anymore. Simply said, the target audience isn’t reached with this ad.

    You know damn well the investors are furious, and worse scared. No telling what they'll do.

    Some people also had an issue with the rebrand’s slogan “copy nothing.” These critics pointed out the irony that by making the Jaguar’s logo simpler, the company essentially is copying the trend of others simplifying their logos, too. 

    ADVERTISEMENT
    ADVERTISEMENT

    Besides all of this, there has been a bit of transphobic discourse too, especially on X. Without giving them too much attention, we can simply say that the rhetoric some of the critics use is unwarranted, no matter how much they don’t like the ad. 

    All of these (and probably some others we didn’t catch) criticisms forced the people behind the rebrand to defend their idea. In an interview with Financial Times, managing director of Jaguar, Rawdon Glover, said the intended message of the ad had been lost in social media’s “blaze of intolerance” and denied that it was supposed to be a “woke” statement.

    He also added that they simply don’t want their brand to look like any other, as it would drown between all of them. Basically, they wanted to move away from traditional automotive stereotypes. 

    Sadly, the rebrand didn’t work as intended. Instead, people online are either recreating how they think the ad should have looked or are simply roasting it with hilarious memes and reactions.

    Well, at this point it doesn’t seem that Jaguar is going to back out from what they have planned. So, we’ll have to wait and see whether this rebrand will be the death of Jaguar, as many netizens are predicting, or not. Only time will tell.

    While that happens, make sure to scroll down to see the reactions and memes we talked about.

    My dad was an master mechanic, he needed to test drive a Jag late in the day and just brought it home overnight. Me of course was drooling over it and he even let me drive it for a few minutes. He said as far as luxury cars go the only thing worse than a Jaguar is a DeLorean, that Jags are always in the shop for one problem or another. So I have a VW lol

    Can confirm. Ngl, it's a sexy car, but the mechanic saw it more than I did. Sold it & bought a Chavelle 😉

    And the Detroit 3 STILL are getting their asses handed to them by Japan, reliability-wise. Deming tried to help, and was dismissed. IMO we have gone past the limit of our abilities. Hell, the techs don't even understand them.

    At least it will deter hood ornament theft. If the new ad is an indication the metal jaguar is going to be replaced by something like a brightly colored nylon dish scrubby

    I suggest that they gained their marketing 'experience' from being influencers on social media and are therefore clueless about business. Go woke, go broke!

    Imagine the pressure on the team designing their first electric car. Boss: "Jim! The new logo and the weird sci-fi movie models have alienated 97% of our customer base. No pressure, but it's really important our first electric car is not a total POS!"

    Living in Ireland, we get both UK and Irish ads. It makes me laugh that the Brits are all "hyoon-day" and Ireland is pure "hi-oon-die"!

    It's pronounced "Jag-wahr" in America because it's named after an American animal whose name is brought to us via Spanish. Doctor Who calling a fajita, "faj-it-a" instead of "fa-heet-a" is kinda endearingly silly ("oh, those Brits!"). Car dealerships in America calling it a "jag-you-ahr" in an otherwise American accent makes people want to laugh at how pretentious and stupid you are.

    It is like some people who have problems if their name is not pronounced precisely how they like it.. I kinda understand them a bit, but also who cares if someone pronounce my name differently it's not like it diminish my value or smth. I am still me. I trust myself not how someone call me.

    As an American who moved to Britland from a state that still occasionally has wild jaguars, I remain highly amused everytime Britons tell me I'm pronouncing the word wrong.

    I dunno what I'm missing, but when I do a reverse image search, it comes up with a comic about Hamburgers. Where do the Nazis come in?

    I read an article claiming that at root, they're trying to go for logos that can auto-resize on all devices, hence the extremely simple lines. Still... yech.
