5 reasons to buy the 2015 Jaguar XK

1. Choice of coupe or convertible 

The 2015 Jaguar XK is a two-door luxury car available in sporty coupe or convertible body styles. The coupe is ideal for climate-controlled driving on long road trips, featuring 11.7 cu-ft of cargo space and rear liftback access for your suitcases. You and your copilot can also toss your bags into the handy back seats for an ultra-quick getaway. If you prefer driving with the top down, the XK convertible may be just your speed. You can quickly power the top up or down, with convenient soft-top storage in the bodywork behind the back seats. 

2. Strong V8 engine 

If you’re looking for a luxury car that offers thrilling straight-line speed, the 2015 Jaguar XK delivers. You’ll get a 385-hp 5.0L V8 engine that makes 380 lb-ft of torque, sprinting from zero to 60 mph in just 5.2 seconds in the coupe or 5.3 seconds in the convertible (according to the manufacturer, when new). This stout engine is paired with a smooth six-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. While you’re enjoying the potent power, you’ll be treated to a throaty V8 soundtrack befitting this high-performance vehicle. 

3. Agile handling 

The 2015 Jaguar XK has an all-aluminum body, offering a blend of lightness and strength that unlocks exceptional sports car handling. You’ll appreciate the adaptive suspension, which continuously monitors the XK’s speed, steering, and body movements to deliver the appropriate response in every situation. Whether you’re tooling around town or hitting the open road, you’ll relish the Jaguar XK’s sharp handling and compliant ride.  

4. Upscale interior 

Every 2015 Jaguar XK boasts a premium interior, with a variety of available colors and materials that appeal to the senses. Seating colors include Ivory, Caramel, Warm Charcoal, and Truffle, and headlining is available in Canvas or Jet morzine fabric, suedecloth, or Poltrona Frau® leather. Plus, you’ll love the unique rotary gear selector that rises out of the Piano Black center console when you press the start button. Once you enter this handcrafted cabin, you may never want to leave. 

5. Single well-equipped trim 

For the 2015 model year, the Jaguar XK is available in one feature-filled trim (base XK), making it easy to find the car that’s right for you. You’ll appreciate the heated steering wheel and 16-way adjustable luxury front seats, upholstered in twin-stitched soft-grain leather. The front seats feature both heating and cooling functionality, as well as driver and front passenger memory. Stay connected with the seven-inch touchscreen and Bluetooth® capability, and enjoy your favorite tunes with SiriusXM® Radio, HD Radio, and an eight-speaker Bowers & Wilkins® surround sound system. With all these premium amenities, the 2015 Jaguar XK is an appealing choice.
