AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)11/29 Report--

According to domestic media reports, the new domestic Jaguar XEL officially went on sale tonight, with a price range of 28.98-380600 yuan. Compared with the old model, the new model has been adjusted for appearance and interior, and the power is still equipped with two types of high and low power engines. At the same time, it provides two kinds of body appearance: elegant series and sports series.

As a medium-term revamped model, the new Jaguar XEL is consistent with the overseas version in styling, and the new car offers two appearance styles, the ordinary version and the sports version, for consumers to choose from. The sports version of the intake grille uses an all-black design, which is more popular today, while the front bumper of the ordinary version is different from the sports version.

The size of the car body remains the same as before, the length, width and height is still 4788mm/1850mm/1429mm, and the wheelbase reaches 2935mm. The difference between the two versions is that the wheel shape is different, the sports series uses the blade shape of the wheel, while the elegant series uses the multi-spoke shape. The hub adopts multi-frame two-color design, the internal structure of the rear light has been redesigned, and the rear bumper also provides two styling styles.

When it comes to the interior, compared with the current model, the changes to the interior of the new Jaguar XEL come from the details, including the dashboard, the handle, the air-conditioning panel and the steering wheel, which can display the navigation interface in addition to basic driving information. In addition, the air conditioning control panel changed to LCD display, and the knob shift was changed to Jaguar SportShift shift lever, which cooperated with the shift pick to drive.

. The new car will still use a 2.0T turbocharged engine, with two power options, 300 horsepower version and 250 horsepower version, and the transmission system will still be an eight-block self-contained gearbox. In terms of chassis, the new Jaguar XEL is still a front double-arm independent suspension, rear multi-link independent suspension, and the rear suspension is an integrated connecting rod of H-arm structure.

It is also said to have introduced a three-cylinder engine called PT153, which is divided into high-and low-power versions, with a maximum output of 160hp in the low-power version and 200hp in the high-power version.

Land Rover sold 3327 vehicles in September, with cumulative sales of 23400 from January to September, 1345 from Jaguar in September and 14400 from January to September. This figure is dismal compared with the best-selling Jaguar Land Rover a few years ago. But even such sales have rebounded a lot.

It's not hard to see from the new Jaguar XEL that Jaguar is really in a bit of a hurry right now. Although luxury brands generally launch models equipped with three-cylinder engines in order to seize the ordinary brand market, XEL accounted for 50.96% and 49.23% of Jaguar's sales in the past two months. If XEL, which can be regarded as the core model, really will launch a three-cylinder engine, what will be the sales then? will it be a slap in the face? I'm afraid I won't know until after the listing.
