2015 Jaguar XE

For some reason I see shades of Holden in it. Maybe the wheels are throwing me..... it looks nice but there's nothing I've seen than stands out in terms of performance or design - plus I don't think we are supposed to see this here in the US until the 2017 model year. Alot can change in almost 2 years in terms of competition. I certainly don't think it will look "cutting edge" when it finally makes it here.

I'm sure the 3.0V6 TT diesels (as fitted in the XF/XJ) will be available at some point later on...they'd be mad not to.

I agree about the interior though on first look, very disapointing, given how good the interiors are in the XF and XJ.

Just looked at the Jaguar UK website and the XE S looks quite promising on paper.
Acceleration 0-60 mph (0-100 km/h) seconds: 4.9 (5.1)
340hp, 450 Nm
kerb weight 1665kg

1665 kg? What happen with lightweight aluminum?
BMW 335i EU kerb weight is 1595 kg?
