Estimated time of travel between the two Canadian hubs is touted to take just 45 minutes, can carry around 54 passengers, and would cost around $70. For reference, a plane journey take 50 minutes, and travel by car is over 3 hours.
Rain usually does not spell ideal track conditions for getting behind the wheel of a race car for the first time, but that doesn’t deter oversteer enthusiast Chris Harris as he pilots the Daytona 24 Hour winning Group C Jaguar XJR-9 around Brands Hatch Racing circuit in West Kingsdown.
This week we’re taking a look at Jaguar’s mid-sized all wheel drive sports sedan. The XF has stiff competition in the segment from the likes of the BMW 5-Series, the Audi A6, and Mercedes Benz E-Class, but this cat’s claws might just be sharp enough to steal some sales from the established leaders.
Our friends at Motorsport Retro brings us this gallery of the most legendary Jags built to attack a road course. A decade ago, Jaguar decided to bow out of the F1 series, exiting worldwide motorsport indefinitely. Regardless, Jaguar’s 50-year racing history still stands, and it includes some of the most incredible racing machines each era of competition had to offer. While Jaguar might be more well known for their road-going sportscars, racing icons like the XJR-9 and D-Type still hold special places within the hearts of motorsport fans worldwide. Here’s a look at some of the most notable racing Jags ever to grace the race track.
Jaguar has revealed its first crossover concept with the C-X17 at the Frankfurt Motor Show. The sports crossover design study features a strong, lightweight aluminum unibody architecture, and previews a new range of Jaguar models.
This month saw the fifth annual Wilton House Classic and Supercar Show in England, in which over 200 supercars converge on the grounds of Wilton House, home of the Earl and Countess of Pembroke.
This is the Master Landing Page for the Jaguar XJR. From now on, as we further review this car, we will be updating this page with whatever fresh content we create. Future drive reviews, updated specifications, videos, and other relevant information will all be found right here, in one convenient spot.
Jaguar is stepping up to the plate when it comes to high-powered luxury sedans, with an R version of its flagship XJ. Packing the same 550-horsepower, 5.0-liter, supercharged V-8 found in the XFR-S and XKR-S, the new XJR will compete with the likes of the Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG and Audi S8
Cadillac has been producing some really fantastic sedans as of late. We’ve been fans of the CTS (particularly the monstrous V-badged version) for some time now. Recently, we fell head-over-heels in love with the brand’s new compact sedan, the ATS. Now, Cadillac has seen fit to toss us the key fob to its large XTS, and let us draw our own conclusions. We can tell you, without giving too much away in the first paragraph, that this car really honors the marque’s new tradition of thoroughly enjoyable, thoroughly American luxury sedans.
We show you some of the finer details of the 2012 Jaguar XJL Portfolio. For the best listening experience, we recommend wearing headphones for the POV test drive.
The Jaguar XKR-S represents a kind of supercar that is, at once, both strange to conceive and utterly approachable. That is has legitimate supercar credentials is undeniable: massively fast, quick off the line, spectacular handling both on a track and on the road, gut-churningly beautiful to behold, and significantly more rare than even other fast Jags. And yet, there’s nothing intimidating about the driving experience, unless you happen to be scared off by loud internal combustion engines (in which case this isn’t the article for you, anyway).
The Jaguar XJ is a popular executive limo the world over, thanks to its classy looks and sumptuous luxury trimmings. For 2013 though, it just got a bit more luxurious, thanks to the new Ultimate trim.
According to a new report on Autocar, Land Rover feels there is a case for creating an even more exclusive Range Rover model to compete in the “super-luxury” SUV segment.
As a preview to its official debut at the Geneva Motor Show, Jaguar has unveiled its five-door XF Sportbrake.
When one is buying a luxury sedan for close to (or at) six-figure prices, the basic demands on the car are legion. It must look impressive inside and out, be supremely comfortable, have all of the latest technology, and offer refinement, quiet, and ear-tickling audio in equal measure.
Land Rover’s flagship model, the Range Rover, was recently snapped by Autoblog spy photographers during a winter testing session. Styling for the luxury SUV appears to retain flavors from the current generation, while mixing in slight changes like a gently sloping roofline. Underneath the skin, it will reportedly utilize the same chassis as the Jaguar XJ. Several of the spy shots catch a glimpse of the test car’s interior and, at least for now, it doesn’t appear that major changes have been made.
We’ll admit it (if you haven’t figured it out already), we’re just a little bit obsessed with Japanese tuning company Wald, and it’s formidably cool Black Bison Editions. Proof of our obsession came with the news of the latest BBE from Wald, this last-generation Jaguar XJ.
The new Jaguar XJ line has been a rarity for Winding Road, in that it’s a car that almost every member of our staff agrees about pretty wholeheartedly. With supple but athletic handling, massively good engines, and amazing looks, what’s not to like?
The XJ is a perfect flagship in this new golden era for Jaguar, so I was excited to have my first chance behind the wheel of one of the standard wheelbase versions. One would think that, save for the range-topping Supersport, this supercharged and more compact XJ should be the car to have for enthusiast driving. And that’s true, at least up to a point.
Equal parts birthday present, technology demonstrator, and styling exercise, the Jaguar C-X75 Concept has broken cover in Paris. Designed for Jaguar’s 75th birthday, the C-X75 looks like a reinvented XJ220, and we must say we like it. We also like the stats.
Well, folks, after a day spent driving the new XJL and the Panamera back to back, I’m here to tell you that the luxury sedan market has new players intent on upsetting the proverbial apple cart. As Seyth indicated in his coverage of the new XJ, Jaguar is back in a big way. As a measure of just how far Jaguar has progressed, my recent time in the XJL suggests that Porsche, more than BMW or Mercedes, is the required comparison. Lexus really doesn’t merit mention in this company. How times change.
