Jaguar is launching an updated version of their Jaguar XE saloon, the car comes with a new diesel MHEV engine with 204 PS and new electrified powertrain options.
The car gets some design changes on the outside and inside with some new LED headlights and more, all cars come with an eight-speed automatic transmission.
Enhanced Efficiency with MHEV Technology
For the first time on the Jaguar XE, the next-generation 2.0-litre four-cylinder Ingenium diesel is available with the latest Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV) technology for enhanced efficiency. This new MHEV system uses a belt-integrated starter generator to harvest energy usually lost during deceleration and braking, which is then stored in a 48-volt lithium-ion battery. This stored energy can be redeployed to assist the engine under acceleration, improving both fuel efficiency and performance. The MHEV technology not only reduces CO2 emissions but also enhances the overall driving experience by providing smoother and more responsive power delivery.
Advanced Infotainment and Connectivity
Inside, Jaguar’s state-of-the-art Pivi Pro dual-sim infotainment system ensures the XE is always connected. The intuitive new interface makes it easier for drivers to view information and perform frequently used functions on the move. The Pivi Pro system features a 10-inch touchscreen with a simplified menu structure, allowing drivers to access or view up to 90% of common tasks from the home screen in two taps or less. Additionally, the system supports over-the-air software updates, ensuring that the vehicle’s software is always up to date without the need for a dealership visit.
The Pivi Pro system also includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard, providing seamless smartphone integration. The dual-sim technology ensures that the system can stream media and download updates simultaneously, without compromising on performance. Furthermore, the XE is equipped with a 12.3-inch digital driver display, offering high-definition graphics and customizable layouts to suit the driver’s preferences.
Design and Comfort Enhancements
The updated Jaguar XE features several design enhancements that contribute to its sleek and modern appearance. The new LED headlights not only improve visibility but also add a distinctive look to the front of the vehicle. The headlights are complemented by a redesigned front bumper and grille, giving the XE a more assertive stance on the road.
Inside the cabin, the XE offers a luxurious and comfortable environment with high-quality materials and meticulous attention to detail. The seats are upholstered in premium leather, and the interior trim options include a range of sophisticated finishes such as open-pore wood and aluminum. The cabin is also equipped with ambient lighting, allowing drivers to customize the interior atmosphere to their liking.
Performance and Driving Dynamics
The Jaguar XE is renowned for its dynamic driving experience, and the updated model continues to deliver in this regard. The eight-speed automatic transmission ensures smooth and precise gear changes, while the advanced suspension system provides a balanced and composed ride. The XE’s lightweight aluminum architecture contributes to its agility and responsiveness, making it a joy to drive on both city streets and winding country roads.
In addition to the MHEV diesel engine, the XE is available with a range of petrol engines, including a powerful 300 PS 2.0-litre four-cylinder unit. These engines are designed to deliver strong performance while maintaining impressive fuel efficiency.
