Technology Enhanced:
Adaptive Dynamics: The New Jaguar XJ delivers the comfort and refinement of a luxury car with the responsiveness and driver involvement of a sports car. Whether cornering, navigating uneven surfaces or accelerating, XJ's Adaptive Dynamics system continually monitors the car up to 500 times a second. Working in conjunction with the air suspension, it constantly varies the damping to suit the conditions.
All Surface Progress Control: The New Jaguar XJ’s All Surface Progress Control (ASPC) technology is a low speed cruise control that helps the car to cope with low traction situations. ASPC allows one to concentrate on steering the vehicle and when activated, one can use the cruise control buttons to set a 'target' speed between 3.6 km/h and 30 km/h. The system then works to achieve and maintain that speed while exerting optimum traction control.
State-of-the-art InControl Touch Pro: It enhances the New Jaguar XJ’s entertainment to the very highest level. The 20.32 cm Touch-screen at the heart of the centre console is large and highly-responsive with a customizable home screen and lightning fast response time. Pinpoint touch control allows one to manipulate and interact with information swiftly and seamlessly. The Touch-screen responds in the same manner as a smartphone or tablet computer, providing multi-touch gestures such as pinch, zoom and swipe.
MeridianTM Surround Sound System:
The New Jaguar XJ Portfolio derivatives come equipped with the MeridianTM 825W Digital Surround Sound System which uses 20 speakers including 2 subwoofers.
Exterior Colours:
Customers have a wide variety of 8 colour options to choose from on the New Jaguar XJ such as Polaris White, Rhodium Silver, Ammonite Grey, Dark Sapphire, Odyssey Red, Aurora Red, British Racing Green and Ultimate Black.
