X-TYPE: JAGUAR X-TYPE NOW OFFERS CUSTOMERS EVEN GREATER VALUE

Revealed today at the Canary Wharf Motorexpo, Jaguar has revised and simplified its X-TYPE model line-up offering customers outstanding value-for-money across the range. By consolidating the current line-up, the new model now benefits from a breadth of feature additions and changes to exterior styling without generating a price increase.

Built at Halewood, Jaguar's award-winning manufacturing facility in Liverpool, the X-TYPE combines a fresh performance spirit, handling
agility and innovative technology with the luxury, craftsmanship and refinement for which Jaguar is renowned.

The latest changes to the X-TYPE model line-up will see the 'Classic' and 'Sport' derivative dropped, leaving the 'S', 'SE', 'Sport Premium' and 'Sovereign' to form the heart of the range.

The refreshed model will retain its four engines – the 2.0 and 2.2-litre diesels, the 2.5-litre V6
petrol and the 3.0-litre V6 petrol all-wheel drive (AWD). The 3.0-litre V6 petrol AWD will only be available to buy in the estate version.

A Fresh Face

The X-TYPE has been given Jaguar's signature look with a new Bright Mesh Grille. Additionally, two new colours will be available from September production. Porcelain White replaces White Onyx and Blue Prism is a completely new colour for the X-TYPE range.
