Since the company was founded in 1922, Jaguar has evolved from the production of motorcycle sidecars to become one of the world's leading designers and manufacturers of beautiful, fast premium saloons and sports cars. 

With remarkable changes to the brand over the past 3 years, the most recent addition to the Jaguar range is the new XF, which won the prestigious What Car? Car of the Year 2008 and Best Executive car 2008 as well as What Car? Best Executive Car 2009. There is the all-aluminium XK, the dramatically beautiful sports car that embodies everything you would expect from a Jaguar . Next is the flagship of the range, the all-aluminium XJ now with a highly acclaimed diesel engine, and the  X-TYPE Estate and Saloon which represent Jaguar's pedigree for exciting performance, precise and responsive handling.
 
And now Jaguar has accelerated the pace of change with the new generation XK and XF ranges, revealed in January at the North American International Autoshow, Detroit.

With all-new V8 engines, new Adaptive Dynamics, even more dramatic looks and a redesigned interior, the new XK and supercharged XKR build on 60 years of legendary performance to take the Jaguar sports car experience to a new level.

The new XF took the world by storm in 2008. And now, the car that defines Jaguar sporting luxury is even better, with all-new, highly advanced petrol and diesel engines designed to deliver outstanding performance with remarkable efficiency, even greater luxury and choice, and an expanded range — including the stunning new XFR high performance model.
