It all started with the latest Jaguar XK-R, developed by engineers of the jaguar as the valuable advice given by the technicians of Hethel. Already we have, you will be requested, because we are not face to face for the XE, spider to war with the Porsche Cayman / Boxster.
Received placet, narrow mutual hands of the Allies OVERSEAS have opted for an ephemeral, for the development of a platform in aluminum for the next two posts (a front engine) is more appropriate to shorten the XJ or the floor adapt like Xk? The informant language usually long (thanks to him, in fact, we know these details) provided no answer to that question.

The new XF V6 Diesel S combines superb performance with energy consumption. From 0 to 100 km / h in 6.4 seconds and 250 km / h maximum speed, but an average consumption of 6.8 litres/100 km.
Since its launch, which took place last year, the XF has been recognized as the result of extraordinary new direction of Jaguar design. E 'soon became evident that this was a car in which the pleasure of driving exceeds the expectations created by its beautiful line. Today, the new XF Diesel S raises the driving pleasure to new levels, shifting the balance further while maintaining the core values of sophistication and luxury sport sedans of the XF.
Based on the considerable experience gained in designing the 2.7-liter engine, new diesel 3.0-liter AJ-V6D Gen III show that it is possible to ensure greater performance while reducing consumption and emissions of CO2. XF in the new engine produces 10 percent less CO2 than the 2.7D, while the power was increased by 33 percent as Diesel S. In addition to reducing CO2 emissions, the new 3.0-liter engines meet the Euro 5 legislation which comes into force in early 2011. These significant performance gains are obtained with an average consumption in the combined cycle of 6.8 litres/100 km for both models, an improvement of more than 10 percent compared with the 2.7 liter engine.
A key feature of the new engine is the exclusive system of parallel sequential turbochargers, the first of its kind to be installed in a motor V worldwide. With high torque across the range of engine speeds, improved responsiveness of the throttle and low emissions of CO2, the two turbochargers run in a sequential order to ensure a unique and the best pair of category at low revs, ensuring enormous increase of power at rates higher. In most everyday situations, including driving on the motorway, you use a turbocharger primary variable geometry reactive, while the smaller secondary turbocharger geometry sets is idle, saving energy and improving efficiency.
When the engine turns over 2800 per minute, the secondary turbo intervenes within 300 milliseconds, going to increase fluid and continuous power of the engine without any perceptible delay, nor any drop in performance. To drive a turbo pressure should be from the exhaust that creates pumping losses in the engine, increasing fuel consumption. To remedy this, valves controlled by the engine management system isolating the secondary turbocharger from the exhaust stream that suction from the engine when not needed.

The paparazzi Global Motors this time they did the the spy photos! What you see immortalized in spy photos accompanying this post is the awaited Jaguar XF-R 2010.
By now almost ready for prime time official (probably in March 2009, over the next salon the Geneva), this car should be equipped with a roaring V8 engine of 5.0 liters with an output of 500 horses.

Only sixty copies for a car that is designed to speak much of himself. This is Jaguar XK 60, created a limited edition to celebrate the sixtieth anniversary of the legendary XK, one of the finest sports cars ever made in the world.
Already view at the British Motor Show, the XK 60 will be one of the main protagonists of the Bologna Motor Show, scheduled from Dec. 5-14, thanks to some truly unique features, that the catapult in the enchanted kingdom of luxury cars.
The XK is one of the symbols most representative of the Jaguar brand. The cars that became part of this legendary collection are among those who have brought a wave of innovation in the car, thanks to design grintoso and slender forms that have made it a roadster collectors.
The Jaguar XK 60 is the last declination of the legendary XK, reread in key ultramodern and HiTech. Its construction is entirely in aluminum, which makes the car lighter and more durable in its class. The automatic transmission 6-speed <is perhaps one of the best in the world and is associated with a 3.5 liter V8 engine that delivers 256 hp. Balance between control and agility allowed by the active suspension control electronic.
Available in both coup version that the convertible version, features a new front grille with double honeycomb. Still too early to talk about price and other technical characteristics: waiting confident the Motor Show to learn more.
