Jaguar XE to debut on September 8

After launching the XJ and the F Type Jaguar is gearing up to launch the all-new Jaguar XE on September 8. Labelled as a 'sports saloon', a segment that Jaguar claims it created 50 years ago with the launch of the iconic Mark II.

"Built around an all-new, aluminium-intensive architecture, the XE combines thrilling performance, agile handling and precise, responsive steering, with outstanding levels of refinement", a statement from Jaguar stated.

The car will have the world's first All Surface Progress Control system which ensures rear-wheel drive traction from standstill even in extreme conditions. The sedan will be powered by the new family of engines called as Ingenium.

Mike Cross, Chief Engineer of Vehicle Integrity, said: "Jaguars have always been renowned for a balance of precise handling and a high-quality ride. The XE is the culmination of everything the company has learned over the years. The Integral Link rear suspension provides a combination of supple ride and crisp handling that is unmatched in this segment. We are on target to deliver a vehicle that dynamically outperforms our rivals."
