Trivia
- Two different generations of this family exist. Units made before 2014 are codenamed Jaguar-1B and look identical to the Eagle-B7 platform used for the Z5K320. Units made at some point in or after 2014 use the Jaguar-1BR platform, with a redesigned label and more substantial cutout for the heads.
