Jaguar has released a new photo that shows off the face of its new XE sports sedan, which is meant to rival the BMW 3-Series and Mercedes C-Class. The car features an S badge on the grill which implies that it’s a sportier version.
Jaguar is really giving the XE all it’s got with an all aluminum construction, using a newly created RC 5754 alloy. The XE is also set to introduce a new family of 2.0L four-cylinder “Ingenium” engines. While not much is known about the new family of engines, we do know that they can be fitted in transverse or in-line orientations and be used for rear-wheel or all-wheel drive setups.
The launch of Jaguar’s new XE sports sedan will be marked with the “FEEL XE” project, an audio-visual spectacle that will feature Emeli Sandé, and will be seen and heard across the Thames on September 8 when the car will be unveiled.
The public will be able to influence this special new track through social media using the #FEELXE tag. Jaguar is also collaborating with Stella McCartney and Idris Elba for the FEEL XE project. Emeli Sandé and Jaguar are looking to the public for inspiration as she begins to write a FEEL XE song about the feeling of “Exhilaration” that is said to be at the heart of the XE.
“I’m excited about working with Jaguar on the FEEL XE campaign and with an incredible British brand. The new XE is innovative in its design and I can’t wait to start collaborating with the world, looking at what defines Exhilaration for them, and premiering the track in London at what is going to be an incredible event!” the singer said.
