What should I look for when buying a used Jaguar XE?

Across all model years, at 72.5% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

Older model years carry meaningfully higher accident rates, so always verify the vehicle history report on pre-2019 models.

Key things to evaluate:

• Safety package: The standard package includes a reversing camera, a distracted-driver monitor, low-speed automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane-keeping assist, automatic high-beam headlights, and front and rear parking sensors.
• Infotainment: Jaguar offers the latest version of its InControl Touch Pro Duo infotainment system in the 2020 XE, and it works better than previous iterations of the technology.
• Fuel efficiency: The EPA says it should get 25 mpg in combined driving, but the car returned 20.3 mpg on my testing loop.

Which Jaguar XE trim should I buy?

The 2020 Jaguar XE offers these trims:

• XE P250 S: The value pick for most shoppers, with rear-wheel drive standard and a starting point before you add the more performance-focused equipment.
• XE P300 R-Dynamic S: The stronger choice for driving enthusiasts, with AWD included and the more powerful engine setup.

What Jaguar XE do most buyers choose?

The Jaguar XE years with the most listings are 2018, 2017, and 2019.

Those higher-volume years tend to draw more shoppers because they give you more inventory to compare, which can make it easier to find the right price, mileage, and condition combination. They also tend to be the years most buyers cross-shop first when looking for a used XE.

What is the Jaguar XE's resale value?
