Not too many months ago, our new government’s Make In India campaign was front page news. And of course, all automotive manufacturers seemed to get on board without much of a fuss, putting out press releases about future plans to make some rather interesting cars in India. Jaguar, owned of course by Tata Motors has also gotten on board with the make in India campaign and makes their flagship XJ in India along with their XF. What makes this particular version of the XJ interesting though is the fact that it gets the 2.0-litre 4-cylinder petrol engine making it the cheapest petrol powered luxury limousine you can buy. Read on to know more..

Exterior Styling  
The XJ is without a shadow of a doubt one the prettiest luxury cars in the world today. From its large grille reminiscent of Jaguars rich heritage to its aggressively designed headlamps, the XJ is a certified head turner.

And it gets even better around the back with its wraparound windscreen design that flows flawlessly into the blackened out c-pillar. And then there are the vertical tail lamps and the sheer scale of the thing to contend with. Throw in some large split 5-spoke wheels and a blacked out panoramic roof and what you get is a luxury limousine with enough street presence to put even a gold wrapped Bugatti to shame.

And even on this entry level version, there are no signs of cut corners or missing features which is something we really like about the XJ. Of course, if you are feeling generous, you could always add exterior trinkets like the leaping Jaguar hood ornament, chrome plated split exhaust tips and even a lip spoiler for the bootlid.
