  • 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’s New Sports Car Will Be Called The F-Type

    Jaguar used the backdrop of this week’s 2012 New York Auto Show to confirm that its new sports car based on the stunning C-X16 concept will be called the F-Type when it goes on sale in mid 2013. The car’s construction will be mostly from aluminum, just like its big brother, the XK, and...

    Callum Confirms Jaguar Crossover In The Works, Says SUVs Are For Land Rover

    A Jaguar SUV? That's not Jag's bag, baby. Or so says Ian Callum, noting that a crossover is in the works, but the big off-roaders will be left to sister brand Land Rover. That's no real surprise to us, however, as we've been reporting on a coming crossover from Jaguar--designed by Callum--for well...

    Jaguar Heritage Racing launches, factory-backed C- and D-Type racing imminent

    For those that feared the worst for Jaguar's Heritage operations after news last month that the Heritage Museum would be shutting down this fall, it appears the division is merely shifting its focus: now on to racing. Well, historic racing, to be precise. The new Jaguar Heritage Racing program will...

  • 2010 Jaguar C-X75 Concept, released at 2010 Paris Motor Show
    Jaguar’s Jet-Powered C-X75 To Be Track Car Only: Report

    In 2010 Jaguar unveiled a stunning new supercar concept called the C-X75, which was powered by an advanced range-extended electric drivetrain that relied on a pair of gas-powered ‘microturbines’ to top up the vehicle’s batteries. Then, early last year, Jaguar gave its C-X75 the...

  • 2013 Jaguar XF Sportbrake

    We can’t get enough of Jaguar’s new XF Sportbrake but sadly, we’ll have to learn to appreciate it from afar as Jaguar has no plans to launch its svelte wagon in the U.S. Despite the previous X-Type wagon selling locally, the new XF Sportbrake won’t due to differences in government regulations between the U.S. and Europe. Low expected volumes for the XF Sportbrake meant Jaguar wasn’t willing to invest in making the car’s bumper designs and engines meet U.S. certification, according to The New York Times. For other markets, the XF Sportbrake will be available...

    Jaguar Updates Leaper Logo, Launches New Marketing Campaign

    2013 Jaguar XF Sportbrake Live Photos: 2012 Geneva Motor Show

    Jaguar and Geneva have always had a special connection, ever since the now-famous E-Type was launched at the show back in 1961. The XF Sportbrake isn't as glamorous as an E-Type but Jaguar's wagon is still a sophisticated beast, and we grabbed some live photos of it on the show floor. The...

    2013 Jaguar XF Sportbrake preview

    Jaguar has finally taken the covers off its long-awaited XF wagon and we’re glad to report that the latest tourer is every bit as sexy as the sultry sedan on which it’s based, if not even more so. Called the XF Sportbrake, the design is entirely new from the B-pillars backwards. And in...

    2012 Jaguar XFR: Quick Drive

    It takes a degree of self-control to drive not one, but two diesel examples of Jaguar's XF, before finally getting behind the wheel of the high-performance XFR. There was method behind the madness, of course. With a power output on the fun side of 500 horsepower, stepping foot in the XFR before...

  • 2012 Jaguar XKR-S

    "Grace... Space... Pace". Three words that Jaguar used to describe its luxury sedans and coupes back in the 1960s, and three words by which Jaguars have been held to account ever since. That slogan raises questions when a car like the 2012 Jaguar XKR-S springs from the company's gates. Will it be a true Jaguar? And faced with the rest of Jaguar's range to compare it to at a recent event in Warwickshire, England, Jaguar's fastest car since the XJ220 supercar has a lot of grace, space and pace to live up to. It succeeds, but cautiously so. Pace It would be easy to become overwhelmed by the...

    Jaguar Considering Track-Focused XKR-S: Report

    To most, the 550-horsepower Jaguar XKR-S is about as hardcore as you’d ever want a Jaguar to be. However, for the buyer that likes to take his car to a track, race it, and then drive home again, even the XKR-S may not be focused enough. This has got management at Jaguar wondering if they...

    Jaguar Celebrates The XJ220’s 20th Birthday

    The XJ220 supercar is one of the most iconic Jaguars ever produced, and to this day remains the British automaker’s fastest production car.

  • 1993 Jaguar XJ220S

    If you love cars with a little bit of history, then you’re going to love this 1993 Jaguar XJ220S that’s going up for sale at an RM Auctions event taking place in Arizona this week. We’re sure you’ve heard of the XJ220 before, Jaguar’s V-6 behemoth from the early ‘90s which at one point was the fastest production car on the planet. Well, going under the hammer this week is an ever rarer XJ220S, one of only six ever built, and composed mostly of carbon fiber! That’s right. While the regular XJ220s all featured aluminum bodies, Jaguar had Tom Walkinshaw...

    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...

    Jaguar E-Type Sculpture Raises Money For Charity

    Between 1963 and 1964, Jaguar produced a special racing version of its popular E-Type (known in the U.S. as the XK-E). Of the 12 "Lightweight E-Type" units manufactured, one was taken by E-Type designer Malcolm Sayer and converted into a Low-Drag Coupe for tackling Le Mans. Recently, that car --...

    Earlier this month two brothers from the UK drove a Jaguar XF luxury sedan across the U.S., starting in New York and ending up in Los Angeles after traveling some 2,884 miles. While this in itself is nothing spectacular, the fact that they averaged a fuel economy of 52.4 mpg over the course of the...
