Jaguar's all-new 5.0-litre AJ-V8 XK X150
Introduced for the 2010 model year, the updated Jaguar XK marked one of the most significant developments in the model's life. While the timeless Ian Callum design remained unmistakably Jaguar, beneath the elegant lines came a host of meaningful improvements.
The biggest change was the introduction of Jaguar's all-new 5.0-litre AJ-V8 engine, delivering substantially more power, stronger torque and improved refinement over the outgoing 4.2-litre. Inside, the traditional J-Gate shifter made way for the now-iconic JaguarDrive Selector – the rising rotary gear selector that became a hallmark of modern Jaguars. The cabin also received revised trim, updated instruments, improved technology and higher-quality materials, creating an even more luxurious driving environment.
Externally, subtle revisions included a new front bumper, larger lower air intake, redesigned headlights with LED signature lighting, revised tail lamps and updated alloy wheel designs, giving the XK a more contemporary and purposeful appearance.
Combining effortless performance, grand touring comfort and unmistakable British style, the 5.0-litre XK represents the final evolution of one of Jaguar's finest grand tourers.
