  • Jaguar XE competes in the compact executive segment with models like the Alfa Romeo Giulia, Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, Mercedes-Benz C Class or Volvo S60. The British car debuted in 2015 replacing the Mondeo-based X-Type. The facelifted Jaguar XE 2020 has a more powerful engine and refreshed looks. Jaguar XE now has larger air inlets, which make the car seem lower and wider. It’s supposed to look more like the F-Type sports coupe. New headlights are now LEDs, with J shaped daytime running lights. In the back there is a new bumper and LED lights with new graphics. This is the R-Dynamic trim with the Black Styling Pack.
    Starting price: 44 000 euro
    As tested: 57 000 euro

    Thanks Marek for another informative review , many would choose the Jag , or for that matter Alfa & Volvo , just to stand out & drive something different from the usual predictable German trio that are on every street in the country , they might be the sensible choice , but are no longer rare & exclusive so i would only get one on finance & let them take the depreciation hit when the used market is swamped with 3 series , C Class & A4's 3 years later out of warranty. It is likely there will be more collaborations in the compact executive class as this segment is obviously shrinking in favour of suv's & crossovers !.

I didn't watch it yet, but I trust you, I had to write the comment first... Now let's get to that beauty. Ps: I already test drove it, but I wanted to see and listen to your opinion. Great job man!

      Yeah, I don't understand why they decided to leave the metal exposed there!? Especially with those screw/bolts things sticking out that look like they could rip open cargo like suitcases if you fill the trunk to the top!?
      But it looks like that in every photo I've seen. Either they forgot producing a panel for every review car or that's a really cheap move on an "luxury" class car.

    • @MarekDrives
      @MarekDrives 5 років тому

      @MietzklickLP Nope. That's Jaguar fit & finish. It was the same in the pre-facelift car, but over there the wires for releasing the rear seats were poorly attached. Here at least they stay in place.
      When I was picking up the pre-facelift car they PR fleet guy specifically pointed out other premium brands also leave the metal exposed. And yes, they do leave it exposed, but at least they don't leave exposed bolts! :)

      @@MarekDrives I think people mostly talks about kit what is fitted at lower bumper from front, back and side. Black exterior pack / kit not adding spoilers.(maybe the back trunk spoiler is added?). If you talked about Black Ext. Pack (windows, grille, vents) than i understand and its my fault in case of misunderstanding. But the down "spoilers" are not part of this kit and its added by 3rd party (maxton design) ... nothing against your work i love your reviews (iam long time subscriber). Just wanted to ask if native black ext. pack looks cheap or if you mean lower spoilers.
