The new Jaguar XK 3.5 V8 is on sale from € 75,500 as Coupe and € 83,800 in the Convertible.
To adapt to this new Jaguar XK 3.5 V8 engine was redesigned system intake and exhaust, besides having calibrated the torque curve to give a character similar to the XK 4.2 V8.
The design of monoblock aluminum led to an increase in stiffness, a decrease of radiant noise, improving performance and refinement of the engine. The timing of continuous variable cam allows a much faster response to the demand and driving conditions, while the variation in the length of the intake manifolds (variable geometry) has achieved an improvement in volumetric efficiency and performance engine.
Jaguar XK 3.5 V8 Interior
The delay taking the time to reduce heating of the catalyst and the resulting need for an enrichment of the mixture starts in cold, helping to reduce consumption and exhaust emissions. With its perfection, the use of primers "multi-hole" improves the spraying of fuel inside the combustion chamber, increasing engine power.
The engine management system (EMS) has electronic engine controls in response to the requests of the accelerator pedal. In case of failure of the engine, the EMS system activates the "limp home", which allows the car to drive albeit with a reduced performance.
Any weight reduction translates into a more effective response and better acceleration. There are many components in aluminum and magnesium alloy, the more resistant and durable as aluminum but 30 times lighter.
In summary the value of performance Jaguar XK 3.5 V8 lead with acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h in just 7.6 seconds and reaches a top speed of 243 km / h. The AJ-V8 engine 3.5 completes the current range of engines family XK, made newest generation of engine Jaguar AJ-aspirated V8 4.2 liters and 298 hp from 416 hp supercharged. The 3.5 is capable of delivering 256 hp (188 kW) and a torque of 334 Nm at 4200 g / m.
The Jaguar XK 3.5 V8 is equipped com the automatic six-speed, at the top of its class, and the sequential change with Jaguar steering wheel, allowing passages running extremely fast, in milliseconds.
The fuel consumption of Jaguar XK 3.5 V8 are: urban 17.2 l/100km; extra urban 8.1 l/100km, combined: 11.3 l/100km, respecting the anti-pollution legislation Euro 4 and incorporates a recirculation system exhaust gas. The capacity of the reservoir is 70.6 liters.
A wide range of equipment of the latest technology ensures a dynamic, driving pleasure and safety updated version of the CATS suspension system and the system dynamic stability control (Trac DSC), the system of traction ( TCS), the control system of the tire pressure (TPMS), electronic brake distribution (EBD) com ABS system, the system of emergency braking assistance (EBA), the electronic parking brake (EPB); control Adaptive cruise speed (ACC), the Bluetooth system, the system bonnet elevating a pedestrian protection (PDBS), the touch screen to control the navigation system, air conditioning, sound system and the phone.
The staple of the top model is the body entirely in aluminum, lighter and more highly secure, built with the latest technologies and techniques riveting and joining with epoxy adhesive, derived from aerospace. As a result, the XK is able to accelerate faster, consume less and produce fewer emissions, improving at the same time, levels of security, soundproofing and vibration.
