Auto Expo 2016; Jaguar to showcase its new XE, F-Pace, XF facelift

Jaguar seems to be on a roll and they don’t want to slow down the momentum. After bagging the award for the leading car manufacturer in UK, they are ready to launch their all new range of cars in India. Their stall at the Auto Expo is going to be abuzz with news of the cars they plan to showcase there.

Jaguar XE

One of the most awaited launches for 2016 is the Jaguar XE. The new Jaguar XE will go up against the likes of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Audi A4 and the BMW 3 Series in India. The new Jaguar XE will get both petrol and diesel engines both with two states of tune.

The base version will put out 160bhp of peak power and 380Nm of peak torque while the top of the line diesel version will make 178bhp of peak power and 430Nm of peak torque. On the petrol front the entry level car will make 198bhp of power with 280Nm of torque while the more powerful variant will make 238bhp and 340Nm of peak torque. The Jaguar XE will also get an S variant which gets a 3.0-litre supercharged V6 engine that will make 344bhp and 450Nm of torque.

Jaguar F Pace

The F-Pace on the other hand is Jaguar’s first ever SUV and could work well in a SUV-crazed country like India. Powering the F-Pace will be the same engines that will power the XE. The diesel will be a 2.0-litre unit that will make 178bhp. The petrol on the other hand will be two engines, a 2.0-litre with 240PS and a 3.0-litre motor with 338bhp and 378bhp of peak outputs. The F-Pace will get both a rear wheel drive and an all-wheel-drive variant.

As we mentioned earlier, the Jaguar stall will also have the facelifted XF on display along with the Jaguar XJ luxury limousine. Jaguar will also showcase its popular F-Type sports car in both coupe and convertible variants along with the possibility of showcasing the updated F-Type with all-wheel-drive.
