ecognized as Jaguar's flagship full-size luxury sport sedan, the XJ model has also been the best selling Jaguar. Adding an "R" delineates the performance trim line.
The XJR shares the same all-aluminum body panels and aluminum monocoque frame as the rest of the XJ line. A supercharged version of the XJ base 4.2-liter V8 spins out 390-hp. Coupled to the line-up's standard ZF six-speed automatic transmission, the XJR can sprint from 0 to 60 mph in five seconds. Owners report 24 mpg on the highway and 19 mpg in town.
Like its smaller S-Type R sibling, the XJR shares the exclusive Jaguar Computer Active Technology Suspension (CATS) that electronically modulates the suspension to suit road conditions. In addition, this luxury sport sedan comes standard with Brembo antilock disc brakes that incorporate Emergency Brake Assist, traction control, and Dynamic Stability Control. Further safety features include dual-stage frontal airbags with side- and head-curtain airbags.
A classically appointed interior in leather and real walnut trim enfolds passengers. The standard power tilt and telescoping steering wheel, adjustable brake and accelerator pedals, along with 16-way power seats assure a perfect fit. A reverse proximity alarm system assists in parking this full sized sedan. In addition, an adaptive cruise control system uses radar to determine the distance to the vehicle directly ahead and sets the throttle and brakes to suit the flow of traffic. To keep the back seat passengers happy, Jaguar offers an optional DVD entertainment system with two backseat LCD displays. Some reviewers faulted the car's shifter design as out of date and complained about road noise entering the cabin.
Jaguar has wrapped its tradition of tasteful styling with upscale automotive technology and performance into the XJR. It warrants consideration by those who prefer traditional elegance in a full-sized sedan beyond that offered by German or Japanese competition.

2013 Jaguar XFR-S
Mon, 12 Aug 2013Why Ask Questions When You Already Know The Answer?
"Is it fast?"
We get that question a lot. Several times a month, in fact, and it comes from every corner of our lives - friends, family, complete strangers and even colleagues from time to time. And it's an understandable query. After all, speed, either in a straight line or around a twisty bit of tarmac, is a universally accepted line of demarcation between the typical family sedan and something much more fun and therefore desirable.
Automakers want to stop the EPA's fuel economy rules change, and why that's a shortsighted move
Tue, Dec 6 2016With a Trump Administration looming, the EPA moved quickly after the election to propose finalizing future fuel economy rules last week. The auto industry doesn't like that (surprise), and has started making moves to stop the EPA. Ford CEO Mark Fields said he wanted to lobby Trump to lower the standards, and now the Auto Alliance, a manufacturer group, is saying it will join the fight against cleaner cars. The Alliance represents 12 automakers: BMW, Fiat Chrysler, Ford, GM, Jaguar Land Rover, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Porsche, Toyota, VW, and Volvo. Gloria Bergquist, a spokesperson for the Alliance, told Automotive News that the "EPA's sudden and controversial move to propose auto regulations eight months early - even after Congress warned agencies about taking such steps while political appointees were packing their bags - calls out for congressional action to pause this rulemaking until a thoughtful policy review can occur." The EPA was going to consider public comments through April 2017, but then said it would move the deadline to the end of December. That means that it can finalize the rules before President Obama leaves office. The director of public affairs for the Consumer Federation of America, Jack Gillis, said on a conference call with reporters last week when the EPA originally announced its decision that it is unlikely that President Trump will be able to roll back these changes. Gillis also said on the same call that any attempt by the automakers to prevent these changes would be history repeating itself. "These are the same companies that fought airbags, and now promoting the fact that every car has multiple airbags," he said. "These are the same companies that fought the crash-test program, and now are promoting the crash-test ratings published by the government. So, it's clear that they're misperceiving the needs of the American consumer." There are more reasons the Allliance's pushback is flawed. Carol Lee Rawn, the transportation program director for Ceres, said on that call that the automotive industry is a global one, and many automakers are moving to global platforms to help them meet strict fuel economy rules around the world.
Xcar focuses on famed Jaguar test driver Norman Dewis
Fri, Jun 26 2015If you have any interest at all in motoring history, especially when it comes to European sports car racing from the '50s and '60s, do absolutely whatever you can to set aside 38 minutes for this interview with former Jaguar test driver Norman Dewis from XCar. Dewis had a hand in developing the British brand's vehicles from 1952 to 1985, and as expected over that time, he amassed some fantastic stories. Xcar did a great job of teasing a few of those great tales out of him here. From the very beginning, Dewis was gifted with a natural talent to read a car as a test driver. When he was just 16, he was taken out on his first chance to evaluate a vehicle and picked out even more intricacies than his instructor. Dewis eventually wound up at Jaguar, and that's where his career really took off. Among his many accomplishments there, he had a role in developing disc brakes both for racing and the road, set multiple world top speed records, and helped bring the E-Type to the world. Dewis even made the famous overnight drive in an XKE convertible from England to display it at the Geneva Motor Show. Dewis tells a first-hand account of being in the Jaguar paddock during the tragic accident during the 1955 24 Hours of Le Mans that took the lives of dozens of spectators. It's a story that we usually can only read about or watch in black-and-white films. Hearing Dewis' side really brings this history to life.
