A true driver's car, the Jaguar XE redefines the concept of the sports sedan thanks to its advanced lightweight aluminum intensive construction, streamlined styling, luxurious interior, and outstanding ride and handling. The XE has already garnered more than 40 awards for its design, packaging and driving dynamics and has helped propel Jaguar sales to a 128% increase as of March 2017.

'When we launched the new generation of Jaguar in 2016, led by the XE sedan and F-PACE performance SUV, and backed by the Jaguar EliteCare ownership program, our goal was to complement the superior driving dynamics and standout design of Jaguars with a compelling value proposition' said Joe Eberhardt, President & CEO, Jaguar Land Rover North America.
