The XKR-S had been designed to significantly broaden the appeal of the XK range, offering enthusiastic drivers a compelling, fresh choice in the luxury GT class.

The XKR-S will be powered by an uprated supercharged AJ-V8 Gen III R direct-injection engine which will produce 550PS and 680Nm of torque. This will deliver a 0-60mph acceleration time of just 4.2s, 0-100mph in 8.6s and a top speed of 186mph (300kph).

In addition to the engine modifications the XKR-S will have a bespoke suspension set up, reprogrammed Adaptive Dynamics, and an active sports exhaust to deliver an authentic racecar inspired experience.

Alongside its incredible performance, the XKR-S is the only car in its class that emits less than 300g/km CO2.

The XKR-S will be ultimate expression of Jaguar’s long held duality of purpose; GT character with incredible performance.
