2003 Jaguar XJ6
Unlike other car manufacturers, Jaguar doesn't come
out with a new version of each model every year. In
the 34 years since the first XJ6, it has had only six
generations, the last in 1997 when the AJ-V8 engine
was introduced as one of the engine choices. This makes
it all the more exciting when a new version is developed.
This past September 26, 2002, at the Paris Motor Show,
the seventh generation of the Jaguar XJ6 was born.
As the latest effort from Jaguar, the XJ6 represents
the cutting edge of aluminum construction, performance
technology and interior amenities. All this in one of
the most striking exteriors in the automotive world
means the XJ6 is a car that has people sitting up and
taking notice.
Under the Hood
The new XJ6 has a choice of four different engines;
either of two 4.2-litre V8s (supercharged and naturally-aspirated),
a new 3.5-litre V8 and a 3.0-litre V6, all with six-speed
automatic transmission. These offer 400, 300, 262 and
240 horsepower respectively. The smallest, at 240hp,
may seem like a lightweight but put it in the trim new
XJ and amazing things happen because of the lightweight
and the supporting handling technology.
This car has everything, advanced aluminium architecture
supported by an array of state-of-the-art electronic
technologies to assist drivers in enjoying the car to
the full. The electronic parking brake automatically
engages and disengages, Emergency Brake Assist provides
timely, measured assistance from a sophisticated four-channel
anti-lock braking system in an emergency when it senses
the driver is not up to the task. Traction Control is
complemented by Dynamic Stability Control, a safety-oriented
system that detects and responds to both oversteer and
understeer and intervenes if it detects the vehicle
is at the limit of its grip capabilities. Then there
is the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) that can be set
to keep the new XJ at the required pace, slowing or
speeding up the car to maintain a set speed and distance
behind the car ion front. A feature of the ACC system
is Forward Alert, which can provide an audible warning
to the driver, even when the cruise control is not operating.
Meanwhile highlights of Jaguars Advance Restraint Technology
System include sensors that determine the size and position
of the passengers and regulate the airbag inflation
process accordingly.
Standard Features, Options Packages and Style
The inside of the Jaguar is equally impressive. For
a start the multi-media entertainment system allows
simultaneous enjoyment of up to three different audio,
video or games systems using wireless headphones and
screens mounted in the rear of the front seat head restraints.
Include four-zone climate control, leather upholstery,
walnut burr trim, multi-way power adjusting seats in
front and back and so much more that it would take pages
to list and you have an idea of the grace, power and
comfort inherent in this luxury motor car.
