he Jaguar F-TYPE Coupé, the most dynamically capable, performance- focused production Jaguar ever, made its global motor show debuts in both Los Angeles and Tokyo in
November 2013. The F-TYPE Coupé model line-up is headlined by the F-TYPE R Coupé, its 5.0-litre V8 supercharged engine enabling acceleration from 0-60mph in 4.0 seconds, and a top speed of 186mph (electronically limited). F-TYPE S Coupé and F-TYPE Coupé models complete the range, powered by Jaguar’s 3.0-litre V6 supercharged engine. The F-TYPE Coupé range complements the existing 2013 “World Car Design of the Year” award-winning F-TYPE Convertible model line-up of F-TYPE, F-TYPE S and F-TYPE V8 S. The F-TYPE Coupé embodies the uncompromised design vision of the stunning Jaguar C-X16 concept sports coupé that debuted at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show, its dramatic cabin-rearward stance being defined by three heartlines. The first two heartlines – shared with F-TYPE Convertible – form the muscular front and rear wings, the third heartline being the sweeping coupé roof profile which provides
an unbroken silhouette while emphasising the visual drama of the tapered cabin sitting between powerful rear haunches. Jaguar’s expertise in aluminium technology has enabled the design vision for the F-TYPE Coupé to be delivered in a lightweight yet extremely strong bodyshell. Its torsional rigidity provides the basis for excellent dynamic attributes. The F-TYPE Coupé’s body side is made from a single piece aluminium pressing, probably the most extreme cold-formed aluminium body side in the automotive industry, eliminating the requirement for multiple panels and cosmetic joints. As well as the motor show debut, the F-TYPE Coupé made a dramatic appearance on TV with a new TV commercial, entitled “Rendezvous”, directed by Oscar-winner Tom Hooper and starring Sir Ben Kingsley, Tom Hiddleston and Mark Strong. The advert is the latest offering in Jaguar’s “British Villains” campaign which began with the introduction of the F-TYPE Coupé in November 2013, and made its world premiere during the coveted advertising slot in the Super Bowl XLVIII North America broadcast interval, receiving more than 11 million views online (as of March 2014).

he C-X17 was created as a design study to introduce Jaguar’s all-new advanced aluminium architecture. This modular, scalable architecture will allow
Jaguar to grow its product portfolio and target high-growth areas of the premium market, beginning with a new mid-sized C/D segment sedan in 2015. The C-X17 concept is one example of the diversity of vehicles that could be produced using the new architecture. The Jaguar C-X17 stretched the design possibilities of the segment by combining the character and driving experience of a sports car with increased presence and flexibility – all imbued with the sleek lines, sporting design and luxurious sophistication Jaguar is renowned for.
JAGUAR R PERFORMANCE CARS In March 2014, the range was enhanced further with the addition of the XFR-S Sportbrake, which is the first sports estate car to be produced by Jaguar, with 550PS on tap and 1,675 litres of rear load space. The XFR-S Sportbrake builds on the already acclaimed XFR-S saloon – boasting the same power figures and levels of agility – with increased versatility and practicality. And for customers who value efficiency, but still want their XF to have a sporty appearance, the XFR-Sport was introduced in the summer of 2014. Delivering competitive C02 emission
T from 129g/km, the R-Sport is available in both Saloon and Sportbrake guises.
2014 MODEL YEAR JAGUAR XJ In August 2013, Jaguar announced the latest in a long line of luxurious Jaguar sports saloons – the 2014 model year Jaguar XJ – incorporating enhanced rear cabin luxury features, comfort and in-car technology to create a truly elegant and contemporary luxury Jaguar. The Jaguar XJ offers a comprehensive range of engines – 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol, 3.0-litre V6 diesel and supercharged petrol and four 5.0-litre V8 petrol powerplants – all of which enhance customer choice in key global markets. These engines, as well as the other XJ variants, are mated to Jaguar’s eight-speed automatic gearbox which offers a broad spread of ratios for a perfectly balanced combination of smooth- shifting, economy and driver control. In addition, the Intelligent All-Wheel Drive System, which monitors grip levels and driver input to provide maximum traction at all time, is available on the 14MY XJ (with 3.0-litre V6 petrol engine). An even more spacious long wheelbase version of the 14MY XJ was also introduced. The long wheelbase models have enhanced rear cabin luxury features which include “airline” style reclining seats with massage function, increased headroom, fold-out business tables and a specially retuned rear suspension set-up to enhance rear seat ride comfort.

Also available, Active Driveline is the world’s first “on demand” four-wheel drive system that enhances agility and improves fuel efficiency by operating in front-wheel drive only during steady-state driving at speeds above 22mph. The new system monitors vehicle dynamics and automatically reconnects four-wheel drive (within 300 milliseconds) whenever it is needed. For the 2014 model, the driver assistance capabilities of the Evoque are significantly enhanced by the introduction of features including: Park Exit (to automatically exit parallel parking bays), Perpendicular Park (to position the car centrally in parking bays), Closing Vehicle Sensing and Reverse Traffic Detection (to warn drivers of oncoming traffic), Lane Departure Warning, Traffic Sign Recognition and Wade Sensing. The brand new Land Rover InControlTM connected car system (available as an option) incorporates two new features – InControlTM Remote and InControlTM Secure. Land Rover InControlTM Remote allows owners to trigger an SOS Emergency Call which, in the event of an accident, automatically informs the emergency services of the vehicle’s position. Land Rover InControlTM Secure tracks the vehicle in the event of a theft using advance tracking technology. It raises a silent alarm at a secure operating centre where a third-party service provider will assist the relevant local authorities in a timely recovery of the vehicle. The system ensures the vehicle complies with the Thatcham Category 6 standard. The Range Rover Evoque has proven to be hugely successful and the 2014 model is destined to have even greater appeal.
LAND ROVER CELEBRATES 25 YEARS OF DISCOVERY WITH EXCLUSIVE “XXV” SPECIAL EDITION Land Rover unveiled a new Discovery XXV Special Edition as a celebration of the 25th anniversary year of the original launch of its versatile family SUV. First launched in 1989, the Discovery revolutionised the 4x4 landscape, and over one million Discovery models have been sold since. Its combination of contemporary design, spacious and user-friendly interiors, unflinching capability and extreme versatility made it an instant hit. With the release of each new generation, the Land Rover Discovery has cemented its position as the most capable, versatile SUV in the world. Thanks to its formidable array of innovative and award-winning technologies, from Terrain Response® to Hill Descent Control, the Discovery is as comfortable taking on everyday journeys as it is tackling the world’s harshest terrain – as numerous intercontinental expeditions have proved. Over its 25 years it has been chosen as the explorer’s choice to take on challenges and adventures; Sir Ranulph Fiennes used an original Discovery in his expedition to discover the Lost City of Ubar, while the Discovery 3 was used on the record-holding London-Cape Town drive in 2013. Discovery models have also been used in Land Rover’s own famous G4 Challenge and Camel Trophy. The Special Edition vehicle comes in a choice of four exterior colours, has distinctive badging and a sophisticated, premium interior lined with Windsor leather.
MAJOR NEW TECHNOLOGIES ENHANCE 2014 EVOQUE One of the most successful Land Rover vehicles ever made, the Range Rover Evoque, makes a further leap forward with the introduction of a host of new technologies, announced in August 2013. These enhancements lower fuel consumption by up to 11.4% and reduce CO2 emissions by up to 9.5% and bring a range of new comfort, convenience and connectivity features. Customers ordering vehicles from the 2014 range benefit from newly available features, including: a new nine-speed automatic transmission, new driveline technologies, seven new driver assistance features as well as detail design enhancements inside and out. First shown at the Geneva Motor Show in March, the ZF-9HP automatic transmission is among the world’s first nine-speed units fitted to a passenger car. With a wide spread of ratios and improved efficiency, the new transmission delivers improved economy, reduced emissions, enhanced performance and greater comfort.
LAND ROVER SHOWCASED ITS FIRST HYBRID RANGE ROVER MODELS Land Rover showcased its first-ever hybrid models, and the world’s first premium diesel SUV hybrids, the Range Rover Hybrid and Range Rover Sport Hybrid. These models are set to deliver outstanding fuel economy, significantly lower CO2 emissions and retain Land Rover’s renowned capability and performance. The two all-aluminium models are based on Land Rover’s Premium Lightweight Architecture and share an identical powertrain. The Range Rover hybrids proved their capability during the “Silk Trail 2013” expedition in which they travelled through France, Belgium, Germany, Poland, Ukraine, Russia, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, China and India. LAND ROVER EXTENDS APPEAL AND EXCLUSIVITY OF RANGE ROVER – THE WORLD’S FINEST LUXURY SUV Land Rover extended the customer appeal of its family of luxury SUV vehicles with the launch of a new long wheelbase Range Rover and the addition of an exclusive specification – the Range Rover Autobiography Black. The first long wheelbase Range Rover in 20 years caters for a growing group of consumers looking for the ultimate SUV, and provides an alternative to the traditional long wheelbase saloon cars in this segment. Clever packaging has increased rear legroom by 186mm for rear seat passengers and boosted recline to 17 degrees with the executive seating package to provide enhanced comfort and space. The new Range Rover Autobiography Black made its debut at the Dubai Motor Show in early November 2013. It represents the pinnacle of desirability to bring even higher levels of refinement to the world’s finest luxury SUV. The interior has been carefully crafted and tailored to meet customer needs with subtle but distinctive exterior detailing and is appointed and finished with the highest quality leathers and materials.

Jaguar Land Rover celebrates The Queen’s Coronation
aguar Land Rover had a starring role at a unique event held in London showcasing the best of British innovation, excellence and industry. The Coronation Festival celebrated
the 60th anniversary of the coronation of Her Majesty The Queen, and was held in the gardens of Buckingham Palace between July 11th and 14th. Members of the Royal Family visited the Jaguar Land Rover displays during the preview day. The Queen attended the Festival’s star-studded gala that evening, performed against the backdrop of Buckingham Palace. The Coronation Festival, hosted by the Royal Warrant Holders Association, brought together more than 200 businesses that hold Royal Warrants as suppliers of goods and services to the households of HM The Queen, HRH The Duke of Edinburgh and HRH The Prince of Wales. Jaguar Land Rover is particularly proud to be the only automotive manufacturer to hold all three Warrants. As well as marking the long Royal association, Jaguar Land Rover also celebrated 60 years of technology and innovation at the Festival, with a display of vehicles to represent the Company’s past, present and future. A highlight for many visitors was the 1953 Land Rover Royal Review Vehicle. This is one of 10 specially converted Land Rovers used for

Representing the present was another Royal vehicle, one of two Jaguar XJ Limousines - both specially extended versions of the long wheelbase Jaguar XJ, and finished in Royal claret and black livery. This was joined by five of the Company’s current models: a red Jaguar F-TYPE convertible, a Jaguar XF Sportbrake, a Range Rover Evoque, Range Rover and Range Rover Sport. Finally, the future was spectacularly represented by the Jaguar C-X75, a prototype hybrid supercar which combines the fuel efficiency of a low-emissions city car with a potential top speed of 220mph. Its advanced technologies will be utilised in research and development, innovative future products and next-generation engineering for the Jaguar and Land Rover brands. Her Majesty The Queen at

Jaguar Land Rover committed to the UK The Company reaffirms its commitment to the UK with continued investment in its manufacturing operations.
uring 2013, Jaguar Land Rover reaffirmed its commitment to the UK with the announcement of a further £1.5 billion investment to introduce an all-new, technically advanced

Pushing the technology envelope
aguar Land Rover’s engineering team now covers every spectrum of product development and uses the best and latest tools and techniques. We are developing new engines,
new materials, “green” technologies and new ways for the driver to communicate with their vehicle. We listen to our customers to get a better understanding of their requirements. We are also developing more unique technologies to continue our leadership of lightweight construction and 4x4 capability. Looking further to the future, the world population is growing and more people will live in “megacities”. This brings with it opportunities, as well as challenges including pressure on transport systems, fuel prices and the cost and scarcity of natural resources. In the future our cars will reflect both these challenges and opportunities. Jaguar Land Rover sees five key themes emerging, and it is these that are leading our agenda for future product development. Our cars will become smarter, more connected, cleaner, more capable and desirable.
