Jaguar Land Rover has begun deliveries of the iconic Jaguar XJ in India. The car was shown in India during the Delhi Auto Expo in January this year and the stunningly beautiful and revolutionary new product from the Jaguar stable was acclaimed by one and all.

Commenting on the occasion, Mr S Krishnan, Tata Motors’ Senior Vice President (Commercial), Passenger Car Business Unit, said, “We notice a very intense aspiration in India to own an XJ. We are encouraged by the number of customers who have expressed a desire to own this iconic car.”

Sleek, sporting and sophisticated, the all-new Jaguar XJ brings a daring new spirit to automotive luxury. It offers a seductive mix of striking design, breathtaking performance and engineering. The elongated teardrop shape of the side windows establishes the car’s silhouette and lies at the heart of its flowing design. It does not just look streamlined -- its drag coefficient of 0.29 makes it the most aerodynamic Jaguar ever, along with the XF.

At the heart of the all-new XJ’s construction is Jaguar’s unique lightweight vehicle architecture. Primarily aluminium, but also using magnesium and composite alloys, this allows Jaguar to produce a significantly lighter and stiffer body – the lightest in its class. The structure features aerospace-based riveting and bonding processes, and uses these advanced materials to deliver improved strength, enhanced refinement and superior safety performance.

A coupé profile cloaks a cabin that offers comparable levels of space to saloons with a more conventional style. There is generous accommodation for five occupants. The exquisitely designed interior has a strong sporting character throughout. The spacious cabin is rich in the tactile delight of soft-glove leather, warm veneers and cool chrome.The panoramic glass roof dramatically enhances the sense of light and space inside.

In keeping with its status as the ultimate four-door Jaguar, the XJ introduces a new generation of interior technologies, pioneering the use of display and infotainment systems such as the innovative Virtual Instrument dials, 8” full color Dual View technology Touch Screen display and 1200W Bowers & Wilkins premium surround sound system.

The all-new XJ delivers a driving experience that is just as memorable as the car’s appearance. Benefiting from technologies like continuously variable damping (Adaptive Dynamics), quick ratio power-steering system, JaguarDrive SelectorTM, JaguarDrive ControlTM, Jaguar Sequential Shift and Dynamic Stability Control with Trac DSC mode the new XJ combines responsive, sporting dynamics with the refined, supple ride expected from a luxury Jaguar.

The new XJ is available in India in the long wheelbase version. It is powered by the highly acclaimed 5.0-litre 385PS AJ-V8 Gen III naturally aspirated direct-injection V8 petrol engine. More information on the product is available on the Jaguar India website at Jaguar India - Jaguar Cars - Home

Jaguar XJ 2.0L petrol India bound

It will be the smallest petrol motor in this class of cars in India when it goes on sale. The power output of 237bhp from the turbocharged direct-injection unit is nearly a hundred down on the 3.0-litre V6, but this apparent lack of power isn’t going to be an issue for owners as most of them are likely to be chauffer driven. At Rs 1.16 crore (ex-showroom Delhi) for the base spec, it will sit at the bottom of the XJ range, offering a substantial saving over around Rs 14 lakh over the similar specced 3.0-litre V6 which is priced at Rs 1.30 crores. The bookings for the car began a week back with deliveries scheduled for September.

2014 Jaguar XJ Now Available for Pre-Booking for 5 Lakhs: Launch in June

Jaguar India is set to launch the 2014 Jaguar XJ which is the series of flagship, full-size, luxury sedans sold by Tata owned company. The car, showcased at the Delhi Motor Show, is expected to be launched in June and customers can pre-book the car with a deposit of 5 lacs to avoid last minute rush.

The folks at Jaguar had officially confirmed during the Auto Expo that the new XJ will be a Completely Knocked Down (CKD) unit and will be assembled at the company’s facility located in Pune. Only the long wheelbase version of the car will be available in India. 2014 XJ will become the third model to be locally produced after Land Rover Freelander 2 and Jaguar XF.

The 2014 XJ will be available in two engine variants:

•2.0l 4 cylinder 240PS petrol engine with a top speed of 241kph, accelerating from 0-100 in 7.5 second.
•3.0l 6 cylinder 275PS turbocharged diesel engine with an electronically limited top speed of 250kph, accelerating from 0-100 in 6.4second.

Both the engines will be mated with the 8-speed sequentially automatic doing the transmission duties and beautifully crafted 19 inch wheels.

The new XJ will be pitted against the yet to be launched Audi A8 facelift and the new Mercedes S-Class which just had a price reduction of 20 lacs thanks to the car now being assembled in the Pune plant at Chakan.

Locally made Jaguar XJ sedan here by June.

Jaguar XJ sedan to start at Rs 95 lakh; to get more equipment.

The carmaker is about to start local assembly of the XJ here and will offer the same great package at a Rs 95 lakh starting price (ex-showroom, Maharashtra). This is a considerably lower price tag compared to the base CBU XJ which earlier started at Rs 1.16 crore (ex-showroom, Mumbai, pre-octroi).

Mr. Rohit Suri, Vice President, Jaguar Land Rover, India said:

“We are excited to introduce the locally manufactured Jaguar with a 2.0L petrol engine, a first in its segment, at an attractive price point. The recently launched XJ 3.0L Diesel received an overwhelming response from customers across India. The introduction of the all-new 2.0L petrol engine is keeping in mind our endeavour to broaden the appeal of this fabulous car to customers who are more inclined towards driving a car with a powerful petrol engine at its heart.”

The 2.0L i4 petrol engine with a maximum power output of 177 kW @ 5,500 rpm and maximum torque of 340 Nm@1,750 rpm, is an all-new state-of-the-art turbocharged engine, combining six cylinder refinement and performance with four cylinder economy.

The new 2014 Jaguar XJ features a range of enhanced interior features focused on the rear cabin of the car. New features in the Jaguar XJ include electrically adjustable rear seats with massage function in three intensity settings, increased rear headroom, Rear Seat Entertainment with two 25.9 cm (10.2) LCD screens, electric rear side window blinds, soft door close, 825 Watt Meridian Surround Audio System, LED reading lights in the rear and newly designed business tables in the rear.
