Jaguar XJS Reviews

Jaguar was quick to hit the electrified market with its I-Pace, but now with a few more competitors on the board, does it still stand up? We did a full urban test to find out.

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is the latest automotive brand to move to a five-year/unlimited-kilometre warranty in Australia, although there is one key difference with its version

Jaguar's first all-electric model, the I-Pace, may have had a mixed reception but parent company, Jaguar Land Rover is preparing to commit to a battery-powered future in a big way.According to a report from Britain's Autocar, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) will invest more than £1 billion ($1.9b) upgrading its factories to build a series of EV models for both of its brands beginning in 2021. Three new models - Land Rover's long-anticipated ‘Road Rover', Jaguar's all-new J-Pace and XJ replacement - will all be built in the Castle Bromwich factory on the brand's MLA platform.MLA has been designed by the brand to underpin all of its future models from both brands, allowing for fully-electric, plug-in hybrid and petrol or diesel engines.The Road Rover, a nameplate trademarked by the company more than two years ago, is the long-rumoured first full-electric Range Rover. It will be a luxury flagship with a clear on-road bias, in a major departure for Land Rover in multiple ways.The J-Pace will be Jaguar's answer to the Audi Q7 and BMW X5, at least in size, sitting above both the F-Pace and I-Pace. While it will debut as an EV Jaguar is expected to add the brand's new inline six-cylinder petrol to expand its appeal.The final member of this trio of next-wave JLR EVs will be the replacement for the XJ luxury sedan. It will make the switch to electric power in a bid to give it a fresh start after sales of the current model declined steadily over its lifecycle. Jaguar's designers have hinted repeatedly in interviews over the last 12 months that the new XJ will be a bold departure visually from the current model.It will do battle against the likes of the Tesla Model S and the upcoming Mercedes-Benz EQS as more luxury car makers make the electric switch.

Jaguar Land Rover has uncovered the Project Vector, an all-electric and autonomous vehicle it envisions as the future of urban mobility.Measuring around 4000mm in length, the self-driving pod is specifically designed to easily navigate tight city streets and maximise interior space for passengers.The battery and all-electric drivetrain are housed within the floor of the Project Vector, though exact details are yet to be revealed.What can be seen is a steering wheel and pedals, meaning the Project Vector will not be a full Level 5 autonomous vehicle that can operate without any driver involvement.Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) boss Ralf Speth said the Project Vector was built with environmentalism in mind as the brand marches towards its ‘Destination Zero’ plan for zero emissions, accidents and congestion.“Project Vector shows Jaguar Land Rover as a leader in innovation to make our societies safer and healthier, and the environment cleaner,” he said.“Through this project, we are collaborating with the brightest minds in academia, supply chain and digital services, to create connected, integrated mobility systems – the fundamental building blocks for Destination Zero.“Project Vector is precisely the brave and innovative leap forward needed to deliver on our mission.”
