The new jaguar xe s
Completing the Jaguar sedan car range is the new Jaguar XE S, which joins the XF and XJ model lines. Its introduction into the mid-size luxury sedan segment brings the first in class aluminium-intensive monocoque. The resulting drive from integrating this robust, light structure – together with a double wishbone front suspension gives this rear wheel-drive plenty of exuberance and fuel economy.
Driver assistance include the world debut of the All Surface Progress Control (ASPC) – which automatically maximises traction when the road conditions turn adverse. Borrowing from its F-Type Coupe, Jaguar includes the Torque Vectoring by braking onto the XE. This technology mitigates understeer through intelligent braking of individual wheels, making cornering and handling a lot more effortless and rewarding. In addition to being the lightest and most aerodynamic Jaguar ever, the eight-speed automatic XE ramps up the entertainment aspect; an optional spec by British audio experts Meridian includes specially designed audio reproduction through 12 channels and 11 speakers, including a subwoofer. Prices on the Jaguar XE begin at RM365,000 (excluding road tax and insurance) for the Prestige all the way to RM580,000 for a top-of-the-line Jaguar XE S.
