The World's Largest Free Automobile Event in Downtown Toronto,
June 20‑24 2011
TORONTO, June 20, 2011 ‑ Jaguar Land Rover will be featured at the
world's largest free automobile event, Motorexpo, which is making
its Canadian debut in Toronto's financial district, Brookfield
Place, June 20‑24, 2011. On display will be the new 2012 model year
Jaguar XKR‑S, 2011 Jaguar XJ and Jaguar XF; and for Land Rover the
all new 2012 Range Rover Evoque, the 2011 Range Rover and the Range
Rover Sport.
Jaguar XKR‑S
Making its first appearance in Canada, the XKR‑S is the most
extreme expression yet of Jaguar's passion for building beautiful,
fast cars. For the first time with a series production car, Jaguar
gains entry to the exclusive '300km/h club' (186mph) thanks to the
effortless performance of the supercharged 5.0‑litre AJ‑V8 engine.
A revised fueling map means the direct‑injection powerplant now
produces 550hp* and 502 lb/ft of torque. Extensive tuning has
ensured that power delivery and performance are seamless,
contributing to a 0‑60mph time of 4.2 seconds. The active exhaust
encourages and rewards the enthusiastic driver with dramatic,
motorsport‑inspired aural feedback.
The pinnacle of the XK range builds on experience gathered from the
supercharged XKR and has been developed to extend the performance
parameters of the car. This new sharper‑edged character allows the
enthusiastic driver to explore the limits of the car's dynamics
without losing the refinement for which Jaguar is famous.
2011 Jaguar XJ
The flagship sedan range blends the sleek lines of Jaguar's new
design language with the brand's latest generation engines and
chassis systems. Six XJ model variants include standard and
long‑wheelbase (XJL) versions, the latter adding five inches of
rear legroom and additional luxury amenities. The new XJ is the
most powerful and luxurious in Jaguar's history, with an interior
that offers the latest infotainment technology and a wide choice of
leather and wood finishes. The range‑topping XJ Supersport and XJL
Supersport are available by special order only.
The model range includes the XJ with a naturally aspirated
5.0‑liter V8, the XJ Supercharged with a 470 hp supercharged
version of the engine, and the limited‑production XJ Supersport
powered by a 510 hp supercharged version. An XJ Supersport can
accelerate from 0‑100 km/h in just 5.0 seconds.
All 2011 XJ models are powered by variants of the AJ‑V8 Gen III
5.0‑liter V8 first introduced on the 2010 XF and XK models. The
all‑aluminum four‑cam Jaguar V8 engines combine high power with
high efficiency, thanks to such technologies as spray‑guided direct
fuel injection and dual independent variable cam timing, plus a
variable inlet manifold on the naturally aspirated engine. On the
XJ Supercharged and Supersport models, a twin vortex system (TVS)
supercharger and twin water‑cooled intercoolers are efficiently
packaged in the engine's V.
Pricing:
XJ: $88,000
XJL: $95,500
XJ Supercharged: $104,000
XJL Supercharged: $107,000
XJ Supersport: $128,000
XJL Supersport: $131,000
2011 XF
The Jaguar XF sport sedan enters its third model year with a major
powertrain change; for 2011, the 5.0‑liter AJ‑V8 Gen III
direct‑injection engine, already standard on the XF Premium model,
replaces the previous 4.2‑liter V8 in the XF base model. As a
result, the entry Jaguar now offers 385 hp and 380 lb.‑ft. of
torque, substantial increases over the 300 hp and 310 lb.‑ft. for
the 2010 4.2‑liter model, and can accelerate from zero to 100 km/h
in 5.8 seconds. The 2011 Jaguar XF is the only car in its
segment to offer an all‑V8 engine lineup.
The Jaguar XFR is powered by a 5.0‑liter direct‑injection
supercharged V8 engine that delivers 510 hp and 461 lb.‑ft. of
torque and can go from rest to 100 km in just 5.0 seconds. A twin
vortex system (TVS) supercharger and twin water‑cooled intercoolers
are efficiently packaged in the engine's V.
Pricing:
XF Luxury $62,800
XF Premium Luxury $68,300
XFR $85,300
New for 2011, all Jaguar models come standard with Jaguar Platinum
Coverage, which includes complimentary scheduled maintenance for
the five‑year/80,000 km (whichever comes first) new vehicle limited
warranty periods. This new program also includes no‑cost
replacement of wear items, such as brake rotors, pads and fluid,
and windshield wiper inserts.
All‑new 2012 Range Rover Evoque
The all‑new Range Rover Evoque is the smallest, lightest, most fuel
efficient Range Rover ever produced. The Range Rover Evoque
stays true to the core values of Range Rover while being embodied
in a more compact package. The Range Rover Evoque sends a message
that the company is serious about sustainability, and determined to
deliver vehicles that are both relevant and highly desirable.
As a smaller, lighter and more efficient Range Rover, the Range
Rover Evoque addresses the growing consumer need for more
environmentally friendly vehicles. "The unique style of the Range
Rover Evoque will attract a new generation of Range Rover customers
who have never considered an SUV before, such as premium coupe
buyers who would like to make a bold new statement." said Gerry
McGovern, Land Rover Design Director.
The Range Rover Evoque will be available in two versions: a coupe
and a five‑door. The two versions are identical in overall length
and width; however, the five‑door has a 1.18 inch higher roofline.
Every Range Rover Evoque destined for the United States will be
equipped with all‑wheel‑drive and will feature a 240‑horsepower,
turbocharged, direct fuel injected, four‑cylinder engine coupled to
a six‑speed automatic transmission.
The Range Rover Evoque will be manufactured at Land Rover's multi
award‑winning Halewood plant in Merseyside, UK. The car will go on
sale in more than 160 markets worldwide and in 22 dealers across
Canada from Fall 2011.
2011 Range Rover
Class‑leading V8 engines, a multi‑talented 6‑speed transmission,
Terrain Response® upgrades and external styling enhancements all
combine to ensure the 2011 Range Rover retains its crown as king of
the luxury SUV segment.
The range‑topping, 5.0‑liter, 510hp supercharged and 375hp
naturally‑aspirated V8s deliver supreme performance. Their
uncompromising, world‑class performance is not accompanied by an
increase in fuel consumption and emissions compared to their
predecessors. These lightweight, direct injection engines combine
benchmark efficiency with outstanding power and torque.
Acceleration in the naturally aspirated car to 100 km/h is reached
in just 7.5 seconds, while for those who want the utmost in
performance, the supercharged V8 will rush to 100 km/h in a mere
6.2 seconds.
The 2011 model year Range Rover is further enhanced by improvements
to the Terrain Response® system in the form of Hill Start Assist
and Gradient Acceleration Control. Dynamically, the Range Rover is
equipped with the last word in suspension systems by offering
Adaptive Dynamics technology offering firm control of body motions
through turns while providing the calm, composed ride Range Rovers
are famous for.

technology.
