Jaguar has revealed its new XJ luxury sedan, featuring a decided departure from the retro aesthetics into a bold new modern look. Look out Mercedes-Benz and BMW 7-Series, there may be some new classic competition rolling your way!
The XJ series sedans are starting around $72,500, placing them among the more expensive everyday drivers on the market. The XJ supercharged edition will set you back a bit more, naturally, at $87,500, and the XJL version is around the $90,000 mark.
Did you think I was finished? There are also XJ Supersport and XJL Supersport models for $112,000 and $115,000, correspondingly. This is quite the luxury lineup, with a marketing approach to many segments.
Here are the breakdowns:
• Base XJ: 5.0-liter V8 385 horsepower
• Mid-level supercharged: 5.0-liter V8 470 horsepower
• Supersport: 5.0-liter V8 510 horsepower
Base XJ models hit the 0-60 mark in 5.4 seconds, supercharged models at 4.9 seconds and Supersport models at 4.7 seconds. This speed is thanks to a lightweight aluminum body. The base models top speed is around 121 miles per hour, while the Supercharged is around 155 miles per hour.
All XJ models utilize the same six-speed automatic transmission, making them driver friendly and ideal for most drivers.
