Jaguar XE P250 // REVIEW on Autobahn

[@vitogiaccone9218]

Thank you for the experience AutoTopNL. It was a pleasure having you review the car.

[@blowfish3]

I owned a P300 for 29 days last year. I loved everything about it, except the seats, which caused my back so much pain I had to sell the car. This P250 has the better, straighter backed seats. If mine had those, I would still have the car.

[@karstenklein1607]

I do own a P250 SE and I'm really happy with it as long there's nor snow, neither ice on the streets as the cat definetely does not linke winter weather conditions at all. Apart from this the Jag performs way better than its predecessor, a W205 Mercedes C-Class, in any aspect. Admittedly the engine cannot compare with the 258hp engine in my G29 BMW Z4 s30i in terms of acceleration and Vmax. But it really doesn't have to. The XE is a beautiful (!!) and fun daily driver. I will keep it as long as it will be running!

[@MoneyAdventures1952]

I had a XE S, it’s very good, a fun sedan.

[@aidansky55]

My mom has a preface-lift XE, it’s the best car she’s ever owned and never will sell it.

[@designerfars]

It’s nice of you that you’ll never sell her car.

[@Achillias]

I got the Jaguar I-Pace 2020. Best driving electric car I've ever driven in. Stunning looking.

[@andrez1297]

A friend of mine got the P300 version and the 2L4Z (with 300hp instead of 250hp and AWD) makes a much better impression on me.

[@saurav0403]

I have a 2018 XE 20t Prestige. And I have to say it’s fun and very comfortable to drive😁

[@pullshow..]

One of my favorite cars back den

[@High-Performance-IQ]

"back then"... How old are you? 15?

[@pullshow..]

@@High-Performance-IQ lol m in SA jaguars don't really sell as much 😂 on the market we've got 2015 n 16 models those are old models now but back then it were my favorite

[@cardealerfan3349]

I like Jaguar, there's a guy who lives near my house and always when I'm in the car and go past that house, then that Jaguar is there parked

[@High-Performance-IQ]

Amazing. Tell us more.

[@tjsingh1099]

Probably broken down

[@designerfars]

What color is it?

[@FranGSainz]

Maybe sometimes when you don't see it, it is also parked... but in the mechanic's workshop. It's a shame because I loved the Jaguars from the 80's.

[@cardealerfan3349]

​@@designerfars it is black

[@M.SEK.P]

Wanted to buy this car, but ended up buying an BMW 330i G20, because the jaguar has to many small negative things

[@Admonitor_]

Lookswise and interiorwise, I quite like the XE. That beeing said, the R-dynamic just feels way more complete designwise. A friend of mine bought one new, took him roughly 12k km (roughly a year), until the car needed a new engine, but I guess thats jaguar for you - Not a car you wanna own unless it's under warranty. But still, I think its a cooler choice than the 3series or C-class you see pretty much everywhere, but then again, I wouldn''t buy the Jag, but buy a Giulia instead. The looks of the Giulia is just unmatched.

[@FranGSainz]

I agree with you, but you have to introduce the Lexus IS 200t F-Sport into the equation. BMW and Alfa have a sportier and less comfortable setup, it's a taste comparison of driving response versus comfort.

[@alexluke84]

Giulia is better looking, well the interior is nicer and more classy in Jag, but for me both have problems that they do not offer 3.0 diesels that I prefer, unfortunately 🤷 well a nice 3.0 petrol is offered in XE, in Giulia is nothing between the 2.0 Veloce and bonkers QV unfortunately

[@Admonitor_]

@@alexluke84 Jag doesnt offer the 3L in the XE anymore btw. What he said in the video was wrong I believe. Yes there was the V6 supercharged XE S back a few years ago, but the facelift only gets 2L engines, reaching up to 300hp.

[@alexluke84]

@@Admonitor_ true...so sad that Jag XE isn't having a proper successor anymore 🤷

[@Adamlllllllllllljjjljljjjjj]

There is something wrong with that car. That engine is not putting out 250hp, it’s either broken or a P200/20t. On Pdrive tv, the 20t XE did 0-62 in 6.8. On Test drive Freak an F PACE P250 did 0-62 in 7.7, and that is heavier. I also would’ve thought that the P250 would’ve had paddles but it might be depending on the spec. Great video

[@Chris-hw4mq]

same here no way its that slow

[@ag8912]

​@@Chris-hw4mqit is though lol

[@NomadJRG]

there were 2 people in the car, that really hurts power to weight on a low hp car like this.

[@mikeypv6]

I got 145mph in my old XE 2.0d 163hp manual on the UK autobahn... this should definitely be quicker than it was

[@GregB419]

🇺🇸 here. Just watch these videos to hear Max talk. Love his accent.

[@annahenrietta9517]

You should try the XF . It has the v6 Diesel with 300 hp and a petrol V6 with either 340 or 380. I think you'd love the V6 diesel it doesn't pretend to be a petrol v6 it's just got that endless behaviour of all the decent diesels.

[@heatcool8932]

do the 2018 XE S AWD 380 horsepower or the project 8

[@szymon6207]

Sure

[@Alexucci97]

the lack of sportiness comes from the absence of paddle shifters. Once you go manual, trust me this thing loves to push hard. I own a P300 so maybe it's tuned differently, but I know for sure that going manual makes everything more responsive, and gear shifting is much faster

[@ТарасСидор-й1ы]

Great video, thank you! Unfortunately there are not many reviews on facelifted XE, had to buy one almost blindly. No regrets though :) Also have P250 version and it's not fast indeed. Even 328i seem faster. Pre-facelift had 35t V6 version, but since 2019 it no longer exists. They have P300 AWD, but it's a 2.0L 4-cyl and is not much faster due to increased weight.

[@katiekennedy9214]

Just gorgeous thank u for the video❤

[@alessandrozanetti166]

i have a 2016 XF with the V6 petrol engine😄 is very fun to drive only problem is i live in switzerland.. so i can't drive fast haha

[@v12-s65]

It‘s not at all an engine for sporty driving. They mainly developed it to be able to pull things like a 2.1 ton Range Rover Velar. A 330i feels like it has 50hp more than this. Certainly not very jaguarish, comfortable it is though. The diesel however with 200hp is a really great choice. I had it in the Evoque and did 250‘000km with it. I‘d recommend the D200 with RWD, if you want this car. Basically uses nothing for fuel. If i was 24 (I‘m 21) I would rather take an F-Type R 😆

[@Greeky555]

I have a XE P250 HSE and it's different. Mine goes 250kmh and it's a lot faster. 🤔

[@rowaddles4287]

I do like Jaguars. But underneath the bonnet, the car loves to give you issues. Especially electricals becoming the weakest part of the Jaguar. The interior has cheap plastic parts which hardly lasts since it would either fall off or just not function properly. Yet, i do hope Jaguars become more reliable soon in the near by future, since i still do have hope for the brand.

[@alexluke84]

With a 3litre diesel this wpuld be my car of choice in a class if I would want an alternative to Germans

[@SparkingMeteor]

If this facelift model had a V6 or V8 ….

[@svenlazic]

Since when 1611kg is not that heavy

[@VisionCityMayor]

Martin laughing about the door open sound in the back lmfao

[@FranGSainz]

I only like the exterior of the Jaguar. The more you get into the depth of the vehicle mechanically/electronically, the worse it is (known brand problems). The gear change must have some design problem, particular point of view. If for €50,300 I don't choose a BMW 330i because it may be more sporty than comfortable, I will surely choose the Lexus IS 200t F-Sport (€44,200) than the Jag XE P250 (€46,550). Indicative prices for comparison.

[@Ne0LiT]

interesting I have a 2012 w204 c220 cdi, thats 170hp, and apparently my car should be slightly faster than this car in automatic based on your tests, lol. Both cars should be pretty much the same weight, so I feel like there must be something wrong with the the car you guys tested out because there is no way that this is putting out 250hp.

[@Jackdudu]

Bugatti Tourbillon top speed test?

Yeah maybe in 2026 or later…

Interior looks nice, but it's built very bad. All the plastics/elements are barely holding themselves. You can pull the piano black plastic near Gear Shifter, etc.

Recently tested an XE, i would say that its far from BMW 😢

[@kelk713]

Why on earth would you say no to a BMW 330i with B48 engine

[@skw2102]

It’s sad to say but I think especially the pre LCI does everything better than this car. My dad has one and it’s just magnificent

[@M.SEK.P]

​@@skw2102yeah, i have a 330i G20 pre lci and wanted to buy the jaguar. Its beautiful, but to many negative things
