International Auto Show
(MAHWAH, N.J.) ‑ November 20, 2012 ‑ Jaguar Land Rover will draw
the world's attention to all things British with the debut of three
exciting new luxury automobiles in the U.S. at the 2012 Los Angeles
International Automobile Show, November 28 ‑ December 9.
"This year's Los Angeles Auto show is one of the most significant
U.S. shows in years for Jaguar Land Rover as we launch a true
modern day British invasion with the debut of three breakthrough
new products," said Jaguar Land Rover North America President, Andy
Goss. "Jaguar Land Rover is making major strides to grow the
business with highly targeted new products. The new Jaguar F‑TYPE,
Jaguar XFR‑S and all new Range Rover will all make a major impact,
specifically in the United States, which will be the world's
largest market for all three vehicles."
Making its global debut at the show will be the XFR‑S model, the
fastest and most powerful sedan Jaguar has ever produced. This is
the second model in the ultra‑high performance R‑S range, with just
100 sedans being offered for the 2014 model year in the U.S. market
‑ making it one of the most exclusive Jaguar models ever.
Making its U.S. Auto Show Debut in Los Angeles is the all‑new 2013
Land Rover Range Rover. The world's first SUV with a lightweight
all‑aluminum body, the new Range Rover takes the capabilities of
the marque's flagship to a new level, with greater luxury and
refinement. The U.S. specification vehicle with the
naturally‑aspirated 5‑liter V8 will be approximately 700lbs lighter
than the outgoing equivalent. This new aluminum platform delivers
significant enhancements in performance and agility, along with an
improvement in fuel economy and reduction in CO2 emissions. The new
Range Rover goes on sale in December, 2012, starting at
$83,5001.
Making its U.S. Auto Show Debut in Los Angeles is the 2014 Jaguar
F‑TYPE, displayed for the first time with the Black Pack (high
gloss black body trim). An all‑new two‑seat soft‑top convertible
sports car built on a front‑engine; lightweight aluminum
architecture with rear‑wheel drive, Jaguar has engineered
the
F‑TYPE to be a true high‑performance sports car. The Jaguar F‑TYPE
combines low vehicle weight (starting at 3,521 pounds), high power
(340hp, 380hp and 495hp versions) and superb aerodynamics to
achieve a pure sports car experience, yet with Jaguar elegance.
F‑TYPE goes on sale in early summer, 2013, starting at
$69,0002.
