Design & Styling

The Jaguar XE takes many of the styling cues from its larger siblings, the XF and XJ. The angular headlamps and the big grille are both Jaguar hallmarks.

The XE's lines flow smoothly towards the back and onto the small boot lip spoiler. The rear tail lamps are angular as well and compliment the XE quite well.

All these styling cues combine to form a sleek and a compact sports saloon that anyone can easily be recognized by anyone as a Jaguar.

Top Features Of The Jaguar XE

  • First-in-Class Aluminum-intensive monocoque design
  • Luxurious soft-grain leather interiors
  • 8-inch infotainment system with Meridian Audio Sound System
  • All Surface Progress Control (ASPC) - Low Speed Cruise Control
  • Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) and Electric Powered Assisted Steering

Availability & Rivals

The Jaguar XE is currently available in Jaguar showrooms across the country. The New Jag will go up against the German heavyweights like the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Audi A4 and the BMW 3-series.
