COMPELLING SPACE

A high-performance grand tourer, every aspect of the XK is ergonomically designed to enhance the driving experience. Whether driving across town or across the country, its 2+2 configuration provides rear seats for occasional use or as a convenient storage area. For additional practicality, Convertible models have a trunk capacity of up to 11.1 cubic feet. Coupe models provide 11.7 cu. ft. of space.

The XK never compromises on luxury – from its modern textures, flawless craftsmanship and signature Phosphor Blue mood lighting, to the XK Convertible's triple-lined canvas top that, when stowed, minimizes encroachment on trunk space.

REFINED PERFORMANCE

Thrill to the smooth delivery of power from a choice of three formidable 5.0 liter Jaguar engines: The highly acclaimed 385 hp V8, the V8 Supercharged delivering 510 hp, and — exclusive to the XKR-S and XKR-S GT — a V8 Supercharged producing an astounding 550 hp.

The 5.0 liter V8 385 hp engine of the XK Touring and XK models produces exhilarating acceleration with effortless refinement.

More dramatic performance comes with the 5.0 liter V8 Supercharged engine fitted with a sixth-generation, twin-vortex supercharger. This all-aluminum quad-cam powerplant is available in two versions: 510 hp and 550 hp, powering the XKR and XKR-S, respectively. It offers a linear delivery of performance, and instant access to high levels of torque at virtually all engine speeds.



INSTINCTIVE RESPONSE

Feel the intuitive control that connects you to the road. The XK is a car with handling so responsive it feels instinctive. The ZF® six-speed automatic transmission is intelligent, with adaptive software that automatically modifies the gearshift strategy to ensure the right gear is selected for virtually every situation. Electronic dampers constantly adjust the suspension, adapting smoothly to the road conditions. The result? The optimum balance between ride and handling, as well as delivering a highly refined driving experience.


LIGHT BUT RIGID ALUMINUM

Core to the outstanding performance and agility of the XK is its all-aluminum body. Formed in this lightweight metal using engineering techniques developed in the aerospace industry, the aluminum body’s exceptional rigidity delivers precise, agile handling and pin-sharp cornering.
In addition to its body rigidity, aluminum construction saves weight, which yields benefits of quicker acceleration, shorter braking distances and improved fuel efficiency. What’s more, 50 percent of the XK body structure is made from recycled or reclaimed aluminum — part of the Jaguar commitment to sustainability.
