The supercharged 5.0-liter V8 packs an aggressive 550-horsepower at 6,500 rpm, a 502 pound-feet torque at 5,500 rpm max, and intelligent start-stop control, this engine allows a 0-60mph sprint in 4.4 seconds and an electronically limited peak speed of 174mph.
Thrust and power is routed to the rear tires via an eight-speed automatic transmission mechanism which tracks acceleration and deceleration, throttle and braking patterns, road load and cornering forces. On automatic mode, these allow smooth gearshift changing to accommodate different driving conditions, while corner recognition offers swift and seamless overtaking.
Performance
The dynamic system found in the Jaguar XJR allows enhanced driver involvement with better steering accuracy and heightened stability and control at top speed. For an aggressive driver, the XJR's engineering is a bonus.
The 20-inch tailored Pirelli tires, adaptive suspension system dampers capable of adjusting 500 times per seconds, and exclusive sports seats is the ultimate package for any driver.
Elite Design
An all around sweep starts with the chrome-rimmed front bumper with black mesh lattice, the signature "R" emblem, and sleek hood louvers. The stout full-size four-door design is further enhanced by forged-aluminum wheels from the XJ Supersport series which gives it a prominent and serious fascia.
This bold stance is completed by a rear bootlid-mounted lip spoiler with the Jaguar insignia proudly embossed. The color palettes include ten different variants for assertive toning.
The tactful mishmash of technologies and styling cues make the 2014 Jaguar XJR ride limber, lush, and elegant.
