Comfort and Convenience

The deliberate engineering doesn't stop with matters of performance. A highly styled interior awaits inside this year's XJ, with a level of sophistication unmatched by any other in the class. There is one particular aspect of the interior that has caught the attention of many reviewers. The XJ offers superior visibility compared to the Panamera, which has been criticized because the rear pillar creates an extra-large blind spot for drivers. This feature renders the XJ not only more stylish, but significantly safer.

Cost and Value

When you are in the luxury automobile market, you need to be discerning. Are you getting real value for your money or are you paying for a label? The incredibly well-equipped Jaguar XJ starts at thousands less than the Panamera, and delivers more than enough luxury and performance to maintain its high status in the segment. The Jaguar XJ also runs a Flex-Fuel motor, meaning that you have the option to use E85 ethanol blends as well as premium unleaded gasoline. This forward-reaching feature isn't just great for fuel-saving; it will help the XJ retain its value and appeal well into the future.
