Jaguar XE Prototype Image Surfaces Online Ahead Of Paris Motor Show
Jaguar, the British multinational car manufacturer, has now taken the wraps off its upcoming sports sedan - Jaguar XE. We were excited in March to know about the <a href="https://www.crazyengineers.com/threads/jaguar-xe-global-roll-out-in-mid-2015-features-at-glance.73668">Jaguar XE Global Roll Out In Mid 2015, Features At Glance</a> of what it will look like when the company announced the name XE at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show. Now, just as the Jaguar XE is set to be unveiled globally at the Paris Motor Show, a new image has appeared that shows the car's production shape. Banking on the sedan's advanced lightweight construction, the Jaguar XE developers boasts off the car's chassis made fro pressed aluminium sheets and castings joined with rivets and aerospace adhesives. Jaguar officials believe this will be considered as the car's highest USP.
Jaguar designers and engineers have applied the philosophy “anything we can imagine, we can create†to the new Jaguar XE will be powered by the premium 'Ingenium' range of 2.0-litre, four-cylinder engine, which is by far the company's most advanced (low-friction, low-emission and lightweight) engine. The Jaguar XE will be able to travel at over 186mph (299 kmph) speeds with lesser CO2 emissions of 100g/km on certain models. The company has also shared that high performance versions of the engine which produce about 400bhp are also on the cards.
Hoping to make the car premium as well as practical, the company will ensure that Jaguar XE goes on sale globally around mid 2015. The car will thus be available in India around the same time, where it may find its rivals in the existing sedan models such as Audi A4, Mercedes-Benz C-Class and BMW 3-series. Tata - the parent company for Jaguar, might expect to generate volumes in sales once this particular model is launched here.
