Jaguar’s luxury grand tourer, the XK offers standard V8 power, a sensuous aluminum body and a deep model range to satisfy diverse tastes. No matter how it’s equipped, the XK carries on the Jaguar tradition of inviting craftsmanship and rewarding performance.
What's New for 2014
Joining the lineup for 2014 is the XKR-S GT, a limited-production halo model that extracts maximum performance from the XK platform.
Choosing Your Jaguar XK
Available as a rear-drive coupe or soft-top convertible, the XK comes standard with a 385-horsepower 5-liter V8, matched to a six-speed automatic transmission. The only way to access more powerful supercharged engines is to move up in trim level.

Touring
The unusually named entry-level model carries the normally aspirated V8 and all the expected features in this class like a leather interior with front memory, navigation, parking sensors and automatic wipers. You also get an adaptive suspension, LED running lights, and a tonneau cover for the convertible.
Base
Jaguar might call this the "Base" XK, but it adds 20-inch wheels, upgraded leather upholstery, ventilated front seats with expanded controls, a heated steering wheel and a 14-speaker Bowers & Wilkins sound system. The base XK can also get the Technology Pack with adaptive headlights and adaptive cruise control with collision warning, and the Portfolio Pack with specific wheels, extra chrome trim and a leather headliner.
XKR
At the XKR level, buyers get a supercharged 510-horsepower V8 along with specific 20-inch wheels, adaptive headlights and HD radio. The available Dynamic Pack adds a more aggressive suspension and sportier body trim. You can also opt for black gloss wheels, an upgraded exhaust system and adaptive cruise control.
XKR-S
The most powerful XK, this carries a 550-horsepower version of the 5-liter V8, and upgraded suspension and exhaust systems. The exterior gets an aerodynamic body kit that features plenty of carbon-fiber components. For the ultimate XK experience, check out the low-volume XKR-S GT. Available only as a coupe in Polaris white paint with black hood stripes, it comes with carbon-ceramic brakes, racing-spec suspension components and suede interior trim.Although price isn’t a prime concern in this class, the XK outperforms several competitors that cost significantly more. Among its peers, it’s a bargain. So buy the best you can afford and enjoy the distinctly British top-down experience.
