  • Jaguar's XFR with the Speed Pack option.

    When it comes to key auto shows worldwide, the Moscow Auto Show is rarely mentioned in the revered tones as the Paris Auto Show, the North American International Auto Show or even the Geneva Motor Show. Still, Russia is a key market for automakers, especially those in the luxury segment, so having a presence at its key auto show is important. Jaguar may not be rolling out any flashy concepts in Moscow, but that doesn’t mean the brand won’t be introducing new products. First up is the launch of an all-new all-wheel-drive system, available on 2013 Jaguar XF and XJ models powered by...

    2013 Jaguar XJ Preview: Jaguar's Flagship Gets New Engine, AWD, New Model

    There’s plenty to like about Jaguar’s range-topping XJ sedan, available in both standard and long wheelbase variants, and the changes to the model lineup for 2013 are aimed at improving sales without compromising the XJ ownership experience. The biggest change for 2013 is the addition...

    Jaguar Previews Plug-In Hybrid XJ With New Prototype

    Building on its XJ Limo-Green project of 2009, Jaguar has unveiled today an updated XJ plug-in hybrid prototype at the 2012 Goodwood Festival of Speed.

    2013 Jaguar XJ Ditches Base V-8, Opts For Supercharged V-6

    While a supercharged V-6 Range Rover Evoque R may or may not be in the works, on the other side of the Jaguar-Land Rover house, the changes for the 2013 XJ are confirmed: it will drop the base normally-aspirated 5.0-liter V-8 model in favor of a supercharged V-6. With 335 horsepower (340 metric...

    Jaguar Shows Off Its XJ Ultimate Edition: Video

    If you’ve never driven a current Jaguar XJ sedan, trust us: it’s a perfectly satisfying luxury ride. No, it’s not up there with Bentley or Rolls-Royce, but neither is the price tag, and the big cat can more than hold its own against competitors from Japan and Germany. If the XJ...

  • 2012 Jaguar XJ Ultimate Edition

    Jaguar has launched a new ultra-luxurious version of its XJ flagship sedan at the 2012 Beijing Auto Show, adopting the ‘Ultimate’ tag last used on the Range Rover Autobiography Ultimate Edition from Land Rover last year. Based on the long-wheelbase XJ, the ichanges applied to the XJ Ultimate Edition focus on the rear accommodation and provide passengers with the kind of luxury appointments they’d find in a private jet. A full-length, leather-trimmed centre console separates the two individually tailored rear seats which feature power adjustment, ventilation, massage and...

    Jaguar XJ Gets More Executive Thanks To Startech

    It's always nice to see a logical tune. Let the stripped-down, two-seat super-coupes get 1,000-horsepower engines and gaudy carbon fiber body kits, luxury cars are about elegance, comfort, and of course, making the money needed to buy them. Instead of focusing all its attention on the engine bay or...

    BMW 5-Series, 7-Series Could Get LCD Gauges

    LCD instrument panels are nothing new. The 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid used a partial LCD display, as does the current Ford Explorer.

  • 2011 Jaguar XJ

    Jaguar's new XF and XJ sedans have made waves in sport-luxury seas, bringing a newer, fresher face to what was once a bit of a stodgy lineup. Now it looks like Jaguar may be planning even more boat-rocking, with several new models in the pipeline including a sports car, a BMW 3-Series rival and an estate wagon. However, the list of new model additions may not end just there. The hope is that Jaguar will be able to triple its sales to around 750,000 vehicles by 2018, but to do so it will need a much fuller lineup of vehicles. With a new management team on board, including new brand manager...

    This, friends, is a cautionary tale, and one that makes it all too clear that the world would be a better place if everyone drove supercars. Lend an ear.

    Last night, a swarm of celebs descended on Alice Tully Hall for one of the fashion world's biggest events: the Council of Fashion Designers of America's annual Fashion Awards.

  • 2012 Jaguar XJ Coupe rendering

    Mercedes-Benz has the soon-to-be renamed CL Coupe and BMW has the 6-Series, two high-end coupes or 'grand tourers' that compete in a relatively exclusive segment--even Audi has the upcoming A7 four-door coupe--so it wouldn’t be too surprising to see Jaguar launch a new two-door version of its stunning XJ flagship. The automaker’s already acknowledged that it's working on hybrid versions of its new aluminum-bodied sedan and during a media gala event at the launch of the 2010 Jaguar XJ, the car’s design director Ian Callum acknowledged that a coupe version was at least in the...

    Just for the record: we hate press embargoes. Not only are they 99% useless in this age of digital media, where nuclear secrets can be disseminated as quickly as family photos, but they're awfully pretentious. No one likes being on the receiving end of a stern, finger-wagging talking-to --...
