2007 Jaguar XK-Series XK Convertible Summary
The Jaguar XK series receives a full overhaul for 2007, finally pushing the ten-year-old model into its second generation. The wheelbase has been pulled outward to offer some additional interior room, and a new all-aluminum build will help shed some pounds. The XK will see improvements to both acceleration and gas mileage thanks to the reduced bulk, but only the front passengers will benefit from the extra room.
New features this year include a more advanced version of Jaguar's CATS (Computer Activated Technology Suspension) and more powerful brakes. Jaguar fills the blur walnut and leather-adorned interior with a myriad of luxury items, including
a DVD-based navigation system, keyless start, an Alpine sound system, rear parking sensors, heated power seats, and full power accessories.
The two lower model XKs are powered by the same 4.2 liter V-8 as the potent XKR, but here the V-8 works on its own to produce 300 horsepower and 310 pound feet of torque. All XKs are rear wheel drive and include a six speed automatic transmission. A steering wheel paddle shifter accompanies the old console J-Gate, affording driver's the quasi-manual experience.
