Jaguar Teases and Names New XE Sedan as BMW 3-Series Rival

It’s now official: Jaguar’s new BMW 3-Series, Cadillac ATS and Lexus IS rival will be called the XE. Set to be revealed in the coming months, the car features an aluminium monocoque construction (the first in the segment) and promises to be the most advanced, efficient and refined in its class.

Power for this new sedan, originally believed to bear the name XS, will come from a new series of UK-built enignes called Ingenium. These petrol or diesel units all displace two liters, they’re all turbocharged and the most frugal of them all promise sub-100 g/km CO2.

Other, more powerful engines will be offered, though, as Jaguar mentioned that the car is designed to achieve speeds in excess of 300 km/h (186 mph), so the BMW M3 and upcoming C-Class AMG had better watch out for the future XER.

The Jaguar F-Type Coupe, one of the most beautiful cars in the world is now available in India at Rs 1.21-1.82 Crore (ex-showroom, Mumbai)

The Jaguar F-Type cabriolet is a spectacular car in its own right and with the introduction of the new F-Type Coupe the Jaguar sportscar line up gets even better. What has been called by many as possibly the most beautiful car in production today, the Jaguar F-Type Coupe has finally been launched in India. Essentially, the Jaguar F-Type Coupe is as same as the convertible but with a fixed hard top. Not only does this add to the visual appeal of the F-Type but it will also go a long way in making the car much better to drive than before.

Available with three engine options, the F-Type Coupe will come in standard, S and the top-of-the-line R specification. The standard car gets a 3.0-litre V6 supercharged engine that generates 340PS. The standard Jaguar F-Type Coupe can be instantly recognised by the two large exhaust tips mounted in the centre of the rear bumper and the smaller 18-inch rims. The Jaguar F-Type S Coupe comes with the same 3.0-litre supercharged V6 engine but with 40PS more than the standard. The resulting V6 engine producing 380PS in the Jaguar F-Type Coupe S gives the car a 0-100kmph time of 4.8 seconds and a top speed of 275kmph.
