With a full charge of the battery, the autonomy would be between 620 and 760 km, at least.

A completely new design

Aesthetically, the future Jaguar XJ will adopt the brand new design language, both indoors and outdoors. One of the most striking details according to Autocar lies in the removal of the badges of the mark, to adopt a new lettering “Jaguar” as well at the front as at the back, but especially the rear window removal which will be replaced by a rear-view camera, like the Polestar 5.

The next Jaguar XJ, as well as the new range of 100% electric models from the British brand, will be launched from the year 2025. These newcomers will completely replace the current range, including the 100% electric Jaguar I-Pace which will soon retire. According to Jaguar Design Director Gerry McGovern, their replacements would be totally different.

Launched in 1968, the Jaguar XJ is an essential model of the Coventry firm: the current generation of the large high-end sedan, marketed since 2010, was withdrawn from the catalog in 2019, without being replaced immediately. The arrival of its new 100% electric version by 2025 should then correct this gap in the range.
