For the laid back back seat commutes go for the XJL and for the self driving pleasures get your hands on the XJ R-Sport.
The Jaguar XJ is powered by a 3.0-liter Supercharged V-6 engine which is the reason behind the sporty nature of the car. It covers the distance of 0 to 60 mph in less than 5 seconds which is impressive and with a top speed of 186mph, the car is a dream for drivers.
The 8-speed automatic engine is powered by 340hp. Getting this engine qualities at such a price is favorable. The engine features make Jaguar easier to drive on the highways.

Jaguar XJ faces tough competition from Mercedes Benz which has a 362hp engine. But the fact is that the Benz is $14,500 costlier than the Jaguar. Other cars like the BMW 740i Sedan and the Audi A8 are completely outclassed by Jaguar's engine.
The Jaguar XJ signifies excellence and flaw in every drive. It lives up to its sporty reputation with great acceleration and speed. As mentioned before, with a top speed of 186mph, Jaguar's engine provides it a license to go extreme.
The highway drives on full-throttle are something which cannot be missed. The emission rate of CO2 is a little higher than its competitors but price again plays an important role here.

The speed of Jaguar XJ is similar to that of its competitors. It lacks behind in CO2 emission rate with the BMW again beating the Jaguar. But after going to the other features, all these small issues are nowhere to be seen.
The Jaguar XJ has a good combination of front and rear brakes. According to its weight and the wheelbase, the braking system in Jaguar is just perfect for the drivers.
High speed allows it to drop to 0mph just a little late than the other cars, but light-weight brakes give it a superb ride. The brakes weigh 3891lbs and the speed can come down from 60-0mph at a distance of 122 feet.

The Jaguar XJ lacks a little in the fuel economy section. Despite its bulky engine and 4.5-inch wheelbase, it gives an average fuel economy in both the cities and the highways. The drive experience is certainly great but the customers may have to empty some part of their pockets on the fuel.

Among the competitors, it is very close to Audi and Mercedes, while the BMW leads the line with the highest fuel economy among these great sedans.
The interior design is a positive point for all XJ models of Jaguar. Housing jet-like air vents and a thin 12.3 film transistor instrument panel along with a low set dashboard gives it an all-round different look from that of old sedans.
The XJ interior is stunning, but some detailing lacks solidity. The seats are comfortable up front and the back seats come with adjustable cushions which are a great asset for a long ride. The tremendous interior also contains:
 There are not much but very essential new technical areas inside the Jaguar XJ. The 10-inch center screen has replaced the previous 8-inch screen, along with:
 The Jaguar XJ is a very spacious car. The interior and seating look like a comfortable room with all the luxurious features. The seating is leather quilted and comes with a massage system which is heaven for the customers. It has self-arranging seats, which can handle suspension. Also, the Premium Rear Seat Package offers great assets such as tables and massage systems for the rear seats too.

The volume inside Jaguar XJ is a little less than all the other sedans. This is understood as XJ has left behind the classy-sedan look and has adapted a sporty appearance in the market.
 It should be kept in mind that the XJ is a smaller car than the BMW, Audi and the Mercedes in length and breadth. One great benefit even after that is the cargo volume.

The cargo of Jaguar is spacious and can hold a great deal of baggage. The longer cars like BMW and Mercedes-Benz have bigger cargos but the Jaguar still beats Audi, even after being a shorter car in length.

The new XJ is light-weighted which allows it to move swiftly and turn swiftly too. It has a tremendous ground clearance of 6.3 inches which is unbeatable.
Less length and more width give it volume and comfort to the passengers. It has a wheelbase of 119.4 inches which is due to its small size in comparison to other sedans.

The other competitors have more length and a higher wheelbase. The BMW, for instance, has a great wheelbase of 126.4 inches. This gives tough competition to the Jaguar in the market.
The stylish exterior and sleek looks make Jaguar a car to be preserved for the eyes. The sporty adaptation has given an overall change to the exterior. Some great exterior features are as follows:
For the makers of the Jaguar, safety is the primary concern. The producers have added numerous features to make the Jaguar XJ a safe machine. It is a blend of an aggressive speed and exterior with a classy interior with myriad innovations. The Jaguar perfectly sets a paragon for the new brand sedans. It has great safety features installed in it which makes it a safe car for the passengers.
The BMW forms a perfect and the toughest competitor for the Jaguar. It is a bigger sedan with a greater wheelbase, fuel economy, and acceleration.
Even after that, it cannot beat the Jaguar on the most effective basis of the engine. BMW's engine is 320hp as compared to Jaguar's 340hp. A better ground clearance gives Jaguar another superiority over the BMW. The better price plays a key role too.
The Audi A8 L proves to be of no match for the Jaguar. Better engine, speed, ground clearance, cargo volume, and better price help the Jaguar to completely outclass the Audi.
The Mercedes has a better engine than the Jaguar, but its big size and heavy installments make it a bulky car in comparison with the swiftness and acceleration of the Jaguar. The Mercedes is a good classy sedan, but Jaguar combines both sporty and classy.
