Jaguar XK Coupe (2011) Updates

Tuesday, 01 November 2011 03:45 AM The fuel economy of the 2011 Jaguar XK Coupe was not its strongest point, with EPA estimates of 16 mpg city, 24 mpg highway, and 19 mpg combined for the base model. The XKR dropped to 15 mpg city, 22 mpg highway, and 17 mpg combined. Despite this, the cars performance and luxury made it a desirable choice for many.

Saturday, 01 October 2011 09:18 AM In India, the 2011 Jaguar XK Coupe would have been a rare sight due to its high price and limited availability. However, for those who could afford it, the XK offered a unique blend of luxury, performance, and British heritage. The cars exclusivity would have made it a standout in the Indian luxury car market.

Thursday, 01 September 2011 01:56 AM The 2011 Jaguar XK Coupe and convertible were priced starting at $83,000 for the coupe and $89,000 for the convertible, with the supercharged XKR versions starting at $96,125 and $102,250 respectively. These prices positioned the XK as a competitive luxury GT car in its segment. I think the pricing was reasonable given the performance and luxury offered.

Tuesday, 19 July 2011 05:34 AM The 2011 Jaguar XK had some known issues, such as potential failures in the cooling system, including the water pump and crossover pipe. Owners were advised to keep a close eye on these components to avoid costly repairs. Regular maintenance, such as changing the transmission fluid and checking the hoses, was recommended.

Friday, 01 July 2011 01:08 AM Safety features in the 2011 Jaguar XK included antilock disc brakes with brake assist, electronic brakeforce distribution, stability and traction control, and front-seat side airbags. The convertible also had pop-up rollover hoops for added safety. These features ensured a safe driving experience despite the cars high performance capabilities.

Wednesday, 01 June 2011 12:08 PM The interior of the 2011 Jaguar XK remained largely unchanged from the 2009 refresh, with new trim combinations and optional sports seats being the main additions. This maintained the luxurious and comfortable interior that Jaguar is known for. I believe the decision to keep the interior largely unchanged was wise, as it already met high standards.

Sunday, 01 May 2011 12:19 PM In terms of design, the 2011 Jaguar XK Coupe got new headlights that were 15mm slimmer than the previous ones, with integrated LED running lights. The front grille was also updated with a larger, chrome-framed oval design and brake cooling ducts. The rear featured LED taillights and a thinner chrome strip. These changes gave the XK a more sleek and modern look.

Friday, 15 April 2011 04:07 PM The 2011 Jaguar XK Coupe and convertible received several new features, including heated windshields, revised interior trim, and an adaptive cruise control system. The traditional Jaguar dog-leg shift lever was replaced with a fully electronic rotary knob controller, similar to the one in the XF sedan. These updates enhanced the comfort and driving experience of the XK.

Wednesday, 13 April 2011 05:07 PM Jaguar introduced a 75th Anniversary special edition of the XK, known as the XKR175, which was limited to just 175 units. This edition featured special black paint, aerodynamic enhancements, unique interior trim, and a higher top speed than the standard XKR. It was priced starting at $104,625. I think this limited edition added a nice touch of exclusivity to the already luxurious XK lineup.

Friday, 27 August 2010 12:18 AM The 2011 Jaguar XK Coupe saw significant updates, including a new 5.0-liter V8 engine that produced 385 horsepower, a notable increase from the previous 4.2-liter V8. This engine change improved the 0-60 mph time to just over 5 seconds. The supercharged XKR version boosted this to 510 horsepower, achieving a 0-60 mph time of about 4.5 seconds. This made the XKR competitive with other high-performance cars like the Porsche 911.
