The flagship of the Jaguar range, the XJ continues to be respected and admired by customers throughout the world. Now Jaguar reveals the most powerful and exclusive XJ in the line up- the XJR Portfolio. A sports saloon of elegant design and supreme luxury, the XJR Portfolio inspires. The supercharged 298kW 4.2 litre V8 engine offers genuine sports performance, accelerating the car from standstill to 100kph in just 5.3 seconds.

A unique character, expressed through a series of features tailored to produce a car of individual beauty and sophistication, XJR Portfolio's exterior styling reflects it's performance credentials. The bright mesh grille and sculpted aluminium side power vents are matched with bold 20" Callisto 5 spoke alloy wheels.

The 4.2 litre V8 engine delivers more than 80% of it's maximum torque at 2000 rpm, which together with the lightweight aluminium body, results in better fuel efficiency and lower emissions, not to mention tremendous desirability.

Inside the cabin, contemporary Aluminium Weave veneer complements the sumptuous Warm charcoal upholstery.

The Computer Active Technology Suspension (CATS) and Active Air Suspension use intelligent electronics to deliver optimum balance between ride comfort, handling and traction. Handling is precise; control and responsiveness supremely confident and driver feedback instantaneous. Clever and intuitive technologies designed to work with the driver and enhance the driving experience.
