The Jaguar XE has an improved outward appearance and sporty performance. It features excellent leather seats, LED headlights, a second touchscreen with climate controls, a digital rearview mirror, and wireless charging pads for phones. The steering is crisp, and the suspension absorbs road irregularities seamlessly while maintaining the wheels’ balance. Further, the car has a four-cylinder engine that can generate 247 horsepower. Here’s a closer look at the key specs.

Exterior
A refreshed front and back bumper makes the Jaguar XE appear broader and lower. Anyone who looks at the car will appreciate its exterior features, like clearcoat paint, body-colored front and rear bumper with black rub strips, and light-tinted glass.

The front bumper apertures are now more prominent, and the grille is wider with a unique mesh pattern. Some other features of the XE include 19-inch alloy wheels, Xenon adaptive headlights, an awesome moonroof with electric tilt and slide, and LED headlights. The car’s curb weight is 3,385 lbs. It is 55.7 inches high, 184.2 inches long, and 77.4 inches wide, with a ground clearance of 4.3 inches.

Interior
Once inside the car, passengers are greeted by a double screen. The bottom display manages the temperature settings, while the top manages the remainder of the infotainment features.

The Jaguar XE has many other exciting infotainment and connectivity features in the cabin, such as quality speakers, USB and AUX input, and Bluetooth compatibility. Customers get a steering wheel made of soft grain leather, ambient illumination, dual-zone climate control, 12-way electrically adjustable front seats, split-folding back seats, and a central armrest.

Engine
Jaguar XE S features a two-liter Ingenium gasoline engine (also known as the P250), which generates 247 horsepower and 269 lb-ft torque. The sportier XE R-Dynamic S trim has a P300 engine that produces 296 horsepower and 295 lb-ft torque. A standard eight-speed automatic gearbox and rear-wheel drive configuration are retained, but users can upgrade to an AWD system that keeps the XE sturdy while improving performance with Intelligent Driveline Dynamics technology. This AWD sedan has an improved grip in all-weather situations. The eight-speed transmission’s shifts are pretty accurate, and gear changes are swift and clean. The Jaguar XE delivers 24 mpg city, 34 mpg highway, and 28 mpg combined. Jaguar claims the P300 will hit 60 mph in 5.4 seconds vs. the P250’s 6.2 seconds.

Performance and safety
The XE’s security features include driver and front passenger airbags strategically placed in front, back, as well as along the side window curtains. Some other safety features include emergency braking, power child safety locks, seat belt reminders, a seat occupancy detector, whiplash protection for front-seat passengers, and an ISOFIX back. The NHTSA and IIHS crash test ratings are not yet available, but the available safety technology is reassuring.

The Jaguar XE is the manufacturer’s smallest sedan, designed for driving ability and elegance, that competes with other small sports sedans worldwide. It has a solid turbocharged engine as standard, an aggressive appearance, leather seats, and optional all-wheel drive. The vehicle’s price starts at around $40,000. Jaguar has always been one of the names to beat when making passionate and exquisite vehicles. So, if these features interest you, visit a nearby dealership to learn more about the car.
