Jaguar Middle East and North Africa has announced the arrival of the All-New XJ. The company’s much anticipated four door flagship is now on sale throughout the region.

 

Sleek, sporting and sophisticated, the All-New XJ brings a daring new spirit to automotive luxury - it offers a seductive mix of striking design, breathtaking performance and engineering without compromise.

 

Building on the success of the new XK and XF models globally and in the Middle East, the introduction of the All-New XJ is a landmark for the revitalised Jaguar brand, extending the appeal of the All-New XJ to a new generation of customers.

 

Ian Callum, Jaguar Design Director said: “The All-New XJ is a thoroughly modern interpretation of the quintessential Jaguar. It is the most emphatic statement yet of Jaguar’s new design direction.”

 

Distinguished by unique exterior and interior design features, the All-New XJ includes an innovative new panoramic glass roof, an integral part of the All-New XJ’s design concept, enabling the car to have a lower, more streamlined roofline, while dramatically enhancing the feeling of light and space inside.

 

The All-New XJ's cabin offers four specification levels – Luxury, Premium Luxury, Portfolio and Supersport – allowing the customer to tailor the car to suit their tastes of choice in colours, veneers and leathers not seen before in a Jaguar.

 

The All-New XJ benefits from the most advanced, powerful and efficient Jaguar powertrains ever. Powered by the 5.0-litre naturally aspirated V8 and 5.0-litre supercharged V8, the All-New XJ also comprises a 470 and 510 horsepower version of the supercharged engine.

 

Proven Jaguar dynamic technologies are taken to new levels in the All-New XJ. Features such as air suspension, Adaptive Dynamics (continuously variable damping), Active Differential Control and quick-ratio power steering deliver the blend of responsive, dynamic handling and refined, supple ride expected from a Jaguar.

 

Inside the car there are advanced new technologies; 12.3-inch high-definition Virtual Instruments complement an innovative, Dual-View technology 8-inch Touch-screen that can project DVD movies or television programmes to the passenger while the driver views vehicle functions or follows satellite navigation.

 

Premium surround sound options include the top-of-the-range 1200W Bowers & Wilkins system, as well as advanced infotainment features like hard drive-based audio and navigation systems, and comprehensive connectivity for portable audio and video devices via the powerful Media Hub.

 

The All-New XJ also takes a new approach to sustainable motoring. Constructed using Jaguar’s aerospace-inspired aluminium body technology, the All-New XJ is lighter than its rivals by at least 150kg which significantly improves performance, handling and economy, while delivering increased strength, refinement and safety.

 

Robin Colgan, Managing Director of Jaguar Land Rover Middle East and North Africa said: “We are very excited about our All-New flagship which sets benchmarks in terms of design, performance and engineering. Jaguar customers in this region look for luxury, individuality and performance and we’re certain the flagship All-New XJ, which is truly beautiful and exhilarating to drive, will enjoy success here, just like the XK and XF.”

 

Long-wheelbase models will be available from launch with short-wheelbase models available upon request.
