All-new XJ for 2011
The flagship sedan range blends the sleek lines of Jaguar's new design language with the brand's latest generation engines and chassis systems. Six XJ model variants include standard and long-wheelbase (XJL) versions, the latter adding five inches of rear legroom and additional luxury amenities.

The range-topping XJ Supersport and XJL Supersport are available by special order only.
The model range includes the XJ with a naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8, the XJ Supercharged with a 470 hp supercharged version of the engine, and the limited-production XJ Supersport powered by a 510 hp supercharged version. An XJ Supersport can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in just 5.0 seconds.
All 2011 XJ models are powered by variants of the AJ-V8 Gen III 5.0-liter V8 first introduced on the 2010 XF and XK models. The all-aluminum four-cam Jaguar V8 engines combine high power with high efficiency, thanks to such technologies as spray-guided direct fuel injection and dual independent variable cam timing, plus a variable inlet manifold on the naturally aspirated engine. On the XJ Supercharged and Supersport models, a twin vortex system (TVS) supercharger and twin water-cooled intercoolers are efficiently packaged in the engine's V.

The Jaguar XF sport sedan enters its third model year with a major powertrain change; for 2011, the 5.0-liter AJ-V8 Gen III direct-injection engine, already standard on the XF Premium model, replaces the previous 4.2-liter V8 in the XF base model.
