Jaguar has been absent from the Le Mans scene since 1991, but this spellbinding LMP1 concept design by Mark Hostler has us praying that the British manufacturer will build this car and make a return to the iconic endurance race.

Hostler believes that the XJR-19 will bring Jaguar back to the top step of the podium. According to Goodwood Road and Racing, it features a 2.7-litre V8 diesel engine, which uses both a turbo and a supercharger, a KERS system and regenerative braking.
