First glimpse of Jaguar's stunner
Aug 26 2005 By Edward Stephens, Evening Mail
JAGUAR today released the first pictures of its stunning all-aluminium sports car, the new Jaguar XK.
The new model, to be launched early next year, is the most technically advanced Jaguar ever built and its development heralds a new era for the Birmingham car maker in terms of both design and engineering.
Built at the company's Castle Bromwich plant, the all-new XK continues the Jaguar tradition of creating beautiful ground-breaking sports cars, but behind its stunning looks it bristles with modern technology.
The use of aluminium for the body of the all-new XK means it is 31 per cent stiffer than the XK it replaces. More importantly, Jaguar says, it is also up to 90 per cent stiffer and 180kg lighter than key rivals.
