Jaguar XJ 2010




Which brings us neatly to the all-new 2010 XJ seen here.
After the XF rolled into showrooms, the outgoing XJ couldn't
help but look dated. Never mind that it was actually quite a good drive
it now shared floor space with the XF's Cool Britannia, rendering .
it as current and desirable as Grandpa's Rock ports.This XJ more closely
mimics the 2077 CX-F concept. With a 29cd, officials say it's the most aerodynamic
jaguar ever built.
We were given the chance to demo the top-rung 1200-watt, 20-speaker, Bowers & Wilkins 7.1 channel
surround system in a static car, and with a better than
the B&O system available in the Audi A8 or the Naim setup
in the Bentley Continental. Even if you go with the least expensive
audio system, you'll still get CD/DVD functionality, USB connectivity,
Sirius, HD Radio and hard drive space for in-car media storage.
The supercharged model will hit 60 mph in just 4.7 seconds, essentially
obviating the need for a dedicated XJR model.
