The New Jaguar XJ in Illinois

The 2011 Jaguar XJ exudes luxury along every inch of its exterior and interior. As the flagship of the Jaguar fleet, the XJ is the ultimate Jaguar experience, unleashing performance, style, and luxury as never before. It showcases the new design language at Jaguar and proves that a large sports sedan can be compelling and provocative. You'll love cruising around Peoria, Bloomington Normal, Chicago, and beyond with this choice car. Take a look into what makes the XJ so special.

Performance

The Jaguar XJ has a 385 hp direct injection 5.0L AJ-V8 Gen III naturally aspirated engine – the most technically advanced engine Jaguar has ever created. The ZF-6 speed automatic transmission is fully adaptive for smooth gear changes. The option to drive manually is always available, as a gearshift mode with paddles is mounted behind the steering wheel. The frame of the Jaguar XJ is made of a lightweight aluminum bodyshell derived from aerospace techniques. Adaptive Dynamics, Dynamic Stability Control, and Active Differential Control allow the Jaguar XJ to handle all obstacles and challenges of the Central Illinois roads with ease.

Interior

The interior of the Jaguar plays host to leather, wood veneers, chrome, high definition screens, and much more. A panoramic roof with electrically operated blinds extends the full width of the roof, and runs from the top of the windshield to the front of the rear seats. The virtual instruments replace the traditional physical instrument cluster with a 12.3" screen that displays a greater range of information. There is more leather inside the Jaguar XJ than inside any previous Jaguar. The seats are expertly crafted from softgrain leather. The front seats are heated and cooled, and the rear seats are heated, keeping you and your passengers warm in the harsh Peoria winters. Dual zone climate control is also included for front and rear passengers. Phosphor blue halo illumination and interior mood lighting create a distinctive interior environment that can't be found in another vehicle. The Jaguar XJ really comes alive at night and is perfect for an evening out in Chicago.

Technology

A 600W premium sound system provides excellent sound, but the option to upgrade to a 1200W Bowers and Wilkins surround sound package featuring 20 speakers throughout the cabin is available. A 30GB hard drive provides plenty of storage for a music library, just insert a CD and it will be copied to the drive. The Media Hub will connect and control your media devices, and includes docking for an iPhone or iPod, other MP3 players, and USB memory sticks. In the center of the console is a full color HD touchscreen complete with navigation system. Climate control and Bluetooth telephones can also be controlled from here. By focusing the controls on one screen, it minimizes the amount of switches necessary on the instrument panel, thus reducing clutter. The rear entertainment system includes dual 8-inch LCD screens mounted in the back of the front headrests, along with two WhiteFire digital wireless headphones.

Interior Choice

The interior has four possible color combinations - jet seats with jet upper fascia and ivory headlining, cashew seats with truffle upper fascia and canvas headlining, dove seats with jet upper fascia and ivory headlining, and finally ivory seats with oyster upper fascia and ivory headlining. Three veneers are potential choices - Burl Walnut (standard), Satin Elm (no cost option), and carbon fiber (additional cost option).

Exterior

The Jaguar comes with 19” Aleutian alloy wheels, xenon headlights with LED signatures and power washers, a panoramic roof, “Cats Claw” rear LED light clusters, and an aerospace inspired aluminum body. The choice of two solid and six metallic paint colors, or five special order metallic colors is available to customize the appearance of the Jaguar to the individual's liking.
