What Indians think about full size sedan👇 Design :- Jaguar xj f Interior :- Benz s-class Performance :- Audi A8 L Price :- Volvo S 90 Car key :- BMW 7 series Mileage :- Honda city Resale value :- innova crysta List going on.......

[@BharatSecurityWatch]

Be it the 3L V6 Diesel or the mind-blowing V8 Supercharged Petrol Flagship, XJ is Arguably the most underrated super luxury sedan in the world.

[@0690zma]

whatever you say but whenever on road you see XJ,it still looks far better than any of its rivals...

[@RishiKumar-uo9fp]

+Yashua Ribeiro true bro..

[@gtarules1]

Nothing looks better than a German car.

[@kuldip2310]

💯 %✔ agreed 👍 with your comment Jaguar really looks stunning than S & 7 series

[@JungleListSoldier]

Old German cars looked great. The new ones are so much. All the Mercedes sedans look the same. Audis are bland and rather boring. I prefer the old X350 XJ but the current one looks like nothing else on the road.

[@jscreator4072]

Yashua Ribeiro it's a beast

[@harshavardhanreddy7690]

updated jag. It is the king of the roads

[@mohamedarthil6249]

[@Techionkalp]

I fall in love with this machine

[@srk5012]

[@hardipinder]

can the earlier xjl get the same speedometer and media upgrade?

[@latishawagh695]

In luv with jags ...... Rolls-Royce......... Volvo .......... And many more 😍😘

[@rajkaka10]

while most car reviewers in India just go blah blah about driving(which is BTW important criteria for car) Autocar is one show that covers other areas too.. eg. back seat comfort were most of this car buyers will sit.. well done

[@vishnuprashanth3885]

when are u gonna do a review on the new jaguar XF?

[@Superblyme139]

[@navalsinghiskingh]

AwesOme car awesome review

[@UvanSankar]

It's superb

[@unnik693]

They could provide better alloys ...and it seems there's much shaking inside as the speed is raising up!

[@RSarts-ry6ie]

I love jaguar car

[@lotussumathi6179]

Beautiful car

[@walkaway6777]

this is the base model shd try the xjr...the top end xj..

[@chiranjibbehera9093]

Nice and beautiful

[@FuZionSniperzZ]

In India do you get only one choice of wheels? In the UK we get 19"

[@mr.kachhawa]

+FuZionSniperzZ In uk you pay on an average of 70k pounds to get jaguar xj and in india we pay 100k for the same car... imagine if the same price was given to you people, would that be possible to see such a luxury car everywhere in UK ?

[@lordrevolta]

+The Lord uhmmmm import duty on car was 110 percent last, that's what they told me in the Benz showroom

[@mr.kachhawa]

C Byte 1. Local Assembly with lot of locally procured parts: Maruti-Suzuki/Hyundai/Mahindra/TATA. Compared to US counterparts, these are competitively priced and often exhibit poor plastic parts since the margins are very tight. These models could be exported as well and create jobs in Indian economy. 2. Local assembly with CKD: Honda / VW / Mercedes-Benz are some examples, who prefer exporting kits from Japan/Europe that can be assembled locally in India, leaving some scope for employment. CKD parts attract 30% duty, so the cost is 1.3x + excise adjustment + manufacturer assembly cost and margin. The final cost for such cars could be close to 2x of US counterparts. These cars have better quality parts or comparable to ones sold globally. 3. Local assembly / Procuring from countries with Free trade agreement with India - Thailand has FTA with India. Honda for instance imports cylinder blockheads and body panels from Thailand and gets the preferential duty pricing while importing from Thailand. 4. CBU - complete builtup import. The duty is 102%. Add the excise tax - The car value will be atleast 2-3x compared to US counterparts. Average salary In India: An average Indian salary is 1/3 or 1/4th compared to the salary for the same job in US. The parity we are talking about is therefore anywhere from 3x to 12x based on how much is the buying power and what is the dream car.

[@gauravkumargklk]

as jaguar is owned and made by tata, cars (jaguar) are no longer imported, even the BMW s are being manufactured in india now a days.

[@walkaway6777]

in singspore 20 inches rims

[@vaibhavchaudhary27]

For a fully loaded, top-of-the-line luxury sedan you shouldn't have seen him bouncing around that much at both the front and the rear seats. So much beauty and charm let down by the lack of a little more practicality.

[@kapilkoka3196]

u r rite bro ! but ppl dont understand that jaguars are know for their sports legacy! they have to maintain that throughout...n basically u get stiffer suspension compared to other cars thats are rivals for that but u r much likely to enjoy the car's abitlity to make u smile than give u a bit of luxuries!

[@vaibhavchaudhary27]

I would tend to agree but the flagship Jaguar 'luxury saloon' should be luxurious. If you'd want sportiness, you'd get the XF, XK or F - Type. Certainly not the XJ.

[@kapilkoka3196]

Vaibhav Chaudhary yeah u r rite but this is the only luxury car in its price to offer ! Such a thing ! Yeah sorry bro ..u have u r opinion ! Im just telling :-)

[@vaibhavchaudhary27]

Yeah, to each his own. :)

[@ayushanand2901]

Jaguar XJ is better looking on the exterior but S class wins in luxury and 7 series in interior dash feel

[@sreeharimadhu6885]

I am a Jaguar fan but i don't get why Jaguar XF,XJ and XE look almost the same from the front.....

[@sreeharimadhu6885]

Billy McAuliffe How am i supposed to know that?

[@sreeharimadhu6885]

Billy McAuliffe and I never called it 'Jagwar'

[@yuliartoandry]

+Sreehari Madhu same question goes to all Mercedes-Benzes and BMWs

[@ayushanand2901]

Sreehari Madhu They are all made on the +- same platform with minor bumper stamping machine plate changes

[@sreeharimadhu6885]

+ayush anand oh k

[@newscentre6843]

Some say jaguar xj doesn't have leg stretchers in the rear seats .Is it true?

[@user-ib8du2qj7x]

himanshu y/// It is just a matter of preference, I think

[@aashishkandukuri2447]

How much it costs in INR?? on approx. and about the mileage by this XJ....

[@AJairbus321]

94 lakhs ex showrroom

[@NagaSasank]

Wow

[@sunilnaik4495]

The cat lights

[@akashpun8369]

nice😀

[@pratamakusnawan5820]

england car own by india

[@krishsen2520]

Just because it's owned by Tata doesn't mean it's Indian. It's still produced by British engineers. Nearly all luxury brand have been bought by Volkswagen, Toyota, Tata etc. Its not something unique to India

[@mohammedshahir1850]

+Krish D. who owns it matter

[@cyberbird451]

the comapny is owned by India, the cars are not. Get back to me if India design and build them, then it would be different.

[@Wilbur-em1hw]

Pratama kusnawan It is owned by tata but it still remains a jag.

[@racistindian5316]

Matt 958 which is owned by Tata

[@shravan338]

Looks wise its good but bmw 7 series and audi a8 gives a lot of features

[@zaifanadi67]

Shravan Pammi stop this indian attitude .... every brand sells an identity , you buy what suits your's .... "more features" 😕

[@Wilbur-em1hw]

Shravan Pammi audi series looks bland bmw may give you some issues in the future(read from reviews)

[@ronakroy3070]

epic

[@jashparmar4527]

99% people do not know that JAGUAR & LAND ROVER is owned by TATA MOTORS INDIA.

[@saisand2938]

Absolutely

[@walkaway6777]

but still british built and thats the main attraction..

[@samedward4937]

absolutely correct but jaguar will be jaguar

[@krutikpathak7075]

But now tata has no tieup with land Rover. The contract is cancelled because of low sale and many other problems.

[@asadpathan1097]

I would rather spend my money on the new 7 series!

[@Organ_saviour]

People still will find jaguar 😂lol

[@HarisankarSony]

New Tata car

[@nastyscorp]

what ? would you call Lamborghini Aventador a Volkswagen car as well thn.

[@anuprai2838]

your lack of knowledge is inherent from your dp.

[@jakedeane5304]

Harisankar Sony the thing is, TATA don't actually do anything with the cars, they only control finance, marketing stuff, VW have ruined Lamborghini

[@cyberbird451]

Volvo is also owned by a Chinese company but you don't hear people saying Volvos are Chinese?

[@hemanthkumarm4990]

It takes a lot of wisdom to buy something which is failing/falling and make it prosper without changing from much of its originality. No matter who wants to accept it or not, it matters to us. We may have not started this, but to keep it alive with our own contribution is nothing small.

[@pradeeppk7779]

An british beauty queen!!!!!!!

bmw is vere good

[@maheshbhoi2433]

Take 4 Passat instead

[@bommiram9335]

xj is the cheapest in this segment

[@avikchatterjee007]

I love Jags, but this is just boring. I would rather spend my 1 crore on a S Class.

[@sreenxth]

+Avik Chatterjee good choice

[@RishiKumar-uo9fp]

+Avik Chatterjee Hi Avik, well bro most of the people who buy such cars enjoy sitting in the back for the most part. however there some motorheads like me while like to pull everything out of the engine and see what it can offer and trust me bro a beemer or a merc can never drive and feel anything like a JAG. try taking a long highway drive and you'll know what im talking about. Cheers and happy drivin.. :-)

[@avikchatterjee007]

Rishi Kumar Depends on the model actually.

[@khannafi1998]

+Avik Chatterjee This is because this model is locally assembled in your country with all the base features. Just look at the rims. We in Bangladesh have to import cars from their origin country and trust me the xj we get is totally different than this one.

Bmw 7 Series is much better than this , XJ is overpriced

[@adityajadhav2279]

True that!

[@aleeshbibinc6056]

yes, it is

[@vaddesampathgoud7863]

true

[@kuldip2310]

But Jaguar looks more premium and Royal 👑 than BMW 7 series

[@kuldip2310]

Jaguar XJ looks more premium and Royal 👑 than BMW 7 series Even a lay man can say that Jag is beautiful than BMW

[@m.panandapadmanabhan4254]

Porsche is better than jaquar

[@YaqoobManiyar]

BMW 7 Series 750 Li is a lot more better than this luxury car

[@101ank]

Boring, BMW 7 pretty much schools this car lol

[@casparpolitman]

its a jaguar, its not a fancy car, jaguar always had his style and his customer, mostly old men, not young rich kid searching for a big bmw. this jag cost more, i will take the serie 7, but i respect very much this majestic car, its not for everybody, if you choose a car like this its just because you like jaguar as a brand of tradition

[@Max_Jordan]

What a boring car. Even a Hyundai i30 is better than this

[@hunaraggarwal8236]

Na

[@banglaview106]

Old & boring car

It's superb
