Jaguar XE

The Jaguar XE is one of 10 Jaguar Land Rover models in the MotorJury library, the catalogue that sets out to hold every car ever made — production, prototype and concept alike. The record places its introduction in 2015. The photography on this page is hotlinked from Wikimedia Commons under an open licence, with the photographer credited on every frame.

The era it was born into

To read the Jaguar XE properly it helps to place it in its decade. The 2010s were the decade electrification stopped being a science project — Tesla forced the incumbents' hand, downsized turbo engines replaced displacement, and the crossover conquered every market. Any car launched into that world was shaped by it — by what materials, engineering and regulation allowed, and by what buyers of the day demanded. Its direct contemporaries in this catalogue, introduced within three years of it, include the Chevrolet Chevrolet Camaro, the Ferrari Ferrari 488, the Ford Ford Escort — the cars a buyer of the period would actually have cross-shopped.

The numbers, read closely

On paper, the Jaguar XE reads like this: the record lists its engine as Petrol engine / Petrol: / 2.0 L Ford EcoBoost engine#2.0 L (2010–2015) / Ford EcoBoost Turbocharger / turbo Straight-four engine / I4 (until 2017) / 2.0 L Ingenium engine family / ; kerb weight is recorded at 1474 kg - 1665 kg; drive goes through 6-speed manual transmission / manual (ZF Friedrichshafen / ZF) / ZF 8HP transmission / 8-speed automatic (ZF 8HP transmission / ZF 8HP45 or 8HP70); the layout is FR layout / F4 layout. Every figure above is a manufacturer specification carried by the Wikipedia infobox or the open Wikidata record for this model — nothing on this page is estimated, and where a source is silent the row simply does not appear.

Its place in the Jaguar Land Rover story

Within Jaguar Land Rover's own catalogue the Jaguar XE sits alongside the Jaguar C-X17 (2013), the Jaguar E-Pace, the Jaguar F-Pace, the Jaguar I-Pace. The record names the Jaguar X-Type as its predecessor, anchoring one end of its lineage. Design is credited to Ian Callum (2013). Assembly is recorded at United Kingdom: Solihull (Solihull plant); Birmingham (Castle Bromwich Assembly); Ryton-on-Dunsmore (Project 8 only) / China: Changshu (Chery Jaguar Land Rover) / India: Pune (JLR .

On the record

For the years the United States federal record covers, EPA-rated economy comes in at 28 mpg combined, which works out near $3,150 a year in fuel at current prices.

How this catalogue works

This library is generated, verified and rebuilt from the open record on every deploy. The catalogue skeleton comes from Wikidata, specifications from Wikipedia's infoboxes under CC BY-SA, photography from Wikimedia Commons under each file's own licence, and the ownership data from United States federal safety records. Nothing is written by hand and nothing is invented: every fact on this page traces to a public source, and every page is rebuilt nightly as those sources improve. Errors in the source record will appear here too — and disappear the night the source is corrected.

From catalogue to ownership

What this page cannot yet tell you is what the Jaguar XE costs to live with — that is a different dataset. MotorJury's ownership verdicts are computed from federal complaint and recall records plus EPA economy data, published per model year as the nightly ingest reaches each car. If this model was sold in the United States, its years will surface in the ownership database; browse it live or price any car yourself with the true-cost calculator.
