Jaguar has confirmed that it will bring an all-new mid-size sports sedan to production and would name it Jaguar XE. The XE sports sedan will be the first product from the new aluminium architecture. This aluminium architecture was showcased in the C-X17 concept car in 2013.
At the Geneva Auto Show Dr Ralf Speth, Chief Executive Officer, Jaguar Land Rover, confirmed, “We announced just a few weeks ago that our new Engine Manufacturing Centre would produce a new family of premium, lightweight, low-friction, low emission four-cylinder petrol and diesel units. The first of our Ingenium engine range will be used in our all-new mid-sized Jaguar sports sedan. That car will be called the Jaguar XE, and it will be unveiled in production form later this year.”
The global rollout of the XE sports sedan will begin in 2015, and it will be the first aluminium monocoque vehicle in the segment. Benefits of aluminium will be there for all to see and experience with the new XE as it will be light and stiff for unbeatable handling, performance, refinement and efficiency.
Utilising the most flexible engine architecture ever produced by Jaguar Land Rover, with an advanced design configured to suit in-line and transverse installations for rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations, the new engines will be both efficient and powerful – including top speeds of over 300km/h and emissions lower than 100g of CO2 per km.
