Jaguar X Type Summary
The Jaguar X-Type is an entry level luxury compact executive car produced by the longstanding
British firm since 2001. The X-Type is the smallest of the current Jaguar saloon cars. The initial
version of the X-Type was a saloon. In 2004 an estate version came on the
scene, only the second ever Jaguar estate car
and the first using a diesel engine. The Estate came with a choice of four
engines, a 2.0 litre direct injection diesel and 2.0 litre, 2.5 litre and 3.0
litre petrol engines
The X-Type is equipped with 192 hp (143 kW)
2.5 L or a 227 hp (169 kW) 3.0 L Jaguar AJ-V6 engine. All wheel drive patented
Jaguar Traction 4 system is standard in the US
and optional in Europe. There is no diesel version in
the U.S.
2007 models continue the iconic muscular Jaguar styling with
some new standard features. The saloon receives stability control, for example.
Both 2007 X-Types are powered by Jaguars 3.0 litre
DOHC V-6, which provides 227 horsepower and a top speed of 140mph on the V6
option.
The X Types four-wheel
drive system is tuned to send 60 per cent of engine power to the rear and
40 per cent to the front wheels, delivering a reputation for great road
handling.

Diesel Particulate Filter is an optional filter system that catches the
very fine diesel soot particles that arise in combustion engines. The
filter system reduces soot particle emissions to near zero, not only exceeding
European emissions standards (EURO STAGE IV) but also helping to reduce
the level of pollutants in the environment.
