With the all-new XK Coupe now revealed to the world, Jaguar is pleased to announce another all-new XK – the XK Convertible.
Designed in parallel with the Coupe as a model in its own right, the new XK Convertible uses the same advanced aluminium body structure technology to achieve excellent rigidity while minimizing weight. At just 1,635kg, the new Convertible – lighter than both its predecessor and rivals – is the lightest car in its competitive set.
A 300bhp, 4.2-litre V8 engine and Jaguar Sequential Shift steering-wheel-mounted gearchange controls ensure rapid performance of 0-60mph in just 6.0 seconds (0-100kmh in 6.3 seconds) and an electronically limited top speed of 155mph (250kmh.
The luxurious triple-lined, fabric roof – which can be powered up or down in less than 18 seconds – stows fully out of sight beneath an aluminium tonneau cover when retracted. A roll-over protection system comprising two ‘hidden’ aluminium hoops that deploy in the event of an incident is standard on all XK Convertibles.
“The all-new XK was designed from the outset to be a beautiful convertible. It is a statement of confident Jaguar design, elegant as well as powerful and with the performance and driving dynamics to match its looks”, commented Jaguar Design Director, Ian Callum
