Jaguar has opened bookings for its latest and most affordable offering yet, the XE sports sedan. The XE is the first car to feature an aluminium-intensive monocoque in its segment, which includes cars like the Mercedes-Benz C-class, BMW 3-series, Volvo S60 and the Audi A4.

 

Unlike its rivals that come in both petrol and diesel guises, Jaguar will offer the XE with a 2.0-litre petrol engine, available in two states of tune, producing 197bhp and 237bhp. The engines will be coupled to six- and eight-speed automatic transmissions.

 

The XE is equipped with torque vectoring by braking and All Surface Progress Control (ASPC). Interiors get soft-grain Windsor leather seats, a panoramic, sliding sunroof, ambient lighting, a 380-watts Meridian audio system and an eight-inch touchscreen interface for its navigation and InControl infotainment system.

 

Jaguar will launch the XE on 3 February at the 2016 Auto Expo. The sedan is expected to be priced competitively around the Rs 38-lakh mark, and the British marque is likely to build the sedan at the Jaguar Land Rover facility in Pune.
