Jaguar confirmed the sedan segment D and D-XFR

Jaguar reveals new rumors about plans for the future: the English manufacturer has confirmed the development of a D-segment sedan which will go to address Mercedes C-Class and BMW 3 Series. The model, like the ill-fated X-Type, will be responsible for drastically expand the volume of the house, but it will be very different from the ancestor not memorable.

The current Jaguar range is too narrow and in many markets we need something more: only by returning to explore a segment of the lower house can become a global player, according to the managers. The first step towards a major expansion of the volumes will be the introduction of 2.2 four-cylinder turbo diesel on the XF.

The arrival of this engine, which is crucial in Europe, will be accompanied by the launch of a four wheel drive system (in this case in the viewfinder are the U.S.) and the debut of a new V6 petrol on the XJ, which looks primarily to China. In the so-called "snowbelt" U.S., 70% of the models sold abroad premium features of the four-wheel drive, while in China, XJ V6, because of which would be subject to taxation, it will cost half (!) Of the V8.
