The communication leaders wanted to emphasize that the XJ Jaguar will set new standards in the luxury, a model in which the British automaker puts great hopes.

Low weight and together with over 50% of recyclable materials help the economy of 6614 pounds of CO2 for each vehicle.

A few days ago we presented you a funny car commercial. In my opinion it was getting away from the subject, but my point of view is very far from being a professional one. So, some guys with some knowledge about commercials gathered last days to show me how it’s done. Here is the result.

When you say Jaguar, you think of something that looks very nice, luxurious and that great things happen under the hood. If you ever liked the old XJ, there’s nothing that will make you hate the new one. If you hated the old one, you will surely love the new one.

The hybrid engine comes to support the Limo-Green project funded by the UK government as they try to build the next generation of luxury sedan.
The new Jag uses a 145 kW, 295 lb-ft unit electric motor. After every charge you are able to drive the car for 30 miles using the lithium battery
