A true
driver's car, the Jaguar XE
redefines the concept of the sports sedan thanks to its advanced
lightweight construction, streamlined styling, luxurious interior, and
outstanding ride and handling. The XE goes on sale in 2016 in the U.S.
The high-performance S model will be at the top of
the line-up.
The long wheelbase and low seating
position enable perfect proportions and a streamlined, coupe-like
profile. The S model's large front air intakes, chrome side vents,
discreet rear spoiler and optional 20-inch forged alloy wheels reinforce
it's performance potential.
The cabin offers
outstanding levels of comfort and spaciousness. Exquisite materials and
finishes, combined with traditional Jaguar craftsmanship make this an
interior without compare.
ALUMINUM
ARCHITECTURE
Jaguar is highly
experienced in the use of aluminum construction. That expertise in
working with such lightweight material has culminated in the
revolutionary body structure of the new XE. It is the first model
designed around our all-new modular architecture and is the only car in
its class to use an aluminum-intensive monocoque body. The lightweight,
aerodynamic form of the Jaguar XE contributes to increased fuel
efficiency and lower emissions.
The
new Jaguar XE features a sophisticated double wishbone front suspension.
The aluminum front spindles are light and stiff - forged from cast
blanks using a patented production process while the rear suspension
features an integral link system. This system delivers lateral and
longitudinal stiffness for precise handling and a supple ride. Aluminum
has been used extensively in the suspension, minimizing
weight.
DRIVING
DYNAMICS For
customers demanding ultimate performance and an exhilarating engine note
from idle right up to the redline there's the Jaguar XE S, which shares
its supercharged 3.0-liter V6 with the acclaimed F-TYPE. The Jaguar XE
will be offered with a lighter version of the ZF 8-speed automatic used
in the rest of the Jaguar range. The exceptional driving dynamics of
the XE are delivered by a number of innovative engineering
technologies.
Integral Link
Rear Suspension: The
Integral Link rear suspension delivers major benefits over conventional
multi-link designs. By providing lateral and longitudinal stiffness,
the Integral Link delivers sharp response and handling while retaining a
refined, luxurious ride. Many components of the Integral Link
suspension are made from forged or hollow-cast aluminum.
New Electric Power Assisted
Steering: The
XE model is the first Jaguar vehicle to be equipped with the latest
generation Electric Power Assisted Steering, which allows a much greater
scope for tuning than hydraulic-based systems. Benefits include
excellent steering feel, variable steering damping, ease of low-speed
maneuvering and the ability to adapt to Jaguar Drive Control settings.
DRIVER
ASSISTANCE
The
Jaguar XE will be equipped with All Surface Progress Control
(ASPC)2. This all-new system, developed
with the input of decades of Jaguar Land Rover experience in off-road
traction systems, works like a low-speed cruise control. Functioning
between 2 mph and 19 mph, ASPC is designed to precisely control the
brake system and powertrain to deliver optimum traction in slippery
conditions.
Projecting high-contrast color images
onto the windshield, the optional laser heads-up display (HUD)
technology provides the driver with information such as speed and
navigation instructions. The XE also offers systems such as adaptive
cruise control, closing vehicle sensing, blind spot monitoring,
semi-automated parallel and perpendicular parking, and reverse traffic
detection2.
ENTERTAINMENT
The all-new Jaguar InControl
infotainment system offers state-of-the-art technology to connect you
to the outside world, making every journey a pleasure. InControl Touch
supports Bluetooth, audio streaming and USB connectivity. The Jaguar XE
can be fitted with an SD card-based navigation system which allows easy
upgrades of map data. Voice control using plain speech gives access to
any level of the system, without navigating through menus, so drivers
can keep their eyes on the road3.
The Jaguar XE functions as a Wi-Fi hotspot, enabling
multiple devices to connect to the internet. InControl Remote
functionality allows users of iOS and AndroidTM
smartphones to connect to the car remotely to control car functions.
These include seven-day timed pre-setting of the vehicle's climate
control system, locking or unlocking the doors, or starting the engine.
