If a Jaguar has been on your wish-list for a while, this accolade makes the XJ even more desirable. The Jaguar XJ has been recognised for its efficiency and awarded the 'Most Surprisingly Economical' honour at the inaugural Honest John Awards.
During testing by Honest John over a distance of 692-miles, the XJ, powered by a refined and highly efficient 3.0 V6 diesel engine, exceeded the claimed combined consumption figure of 39.2 mpg with ease which is equal to 16.66kpl.
Capable of travelling over 700-miles on a single tank of diesel, the XJ makes extensive use of aluminium in its chassis structure, reducing mass and driving up efficiency.
Geoff Cousins, Managing Director, Jaguar UK, commented: ' In the XJ we have successfully created an economical car without compromising the quality, luxury and sports car-like drive that our customers want to enjoy in their Jaguar.'
