The X-Type 3.0 combines athletic performance with agile handling, a refined ride and all the luxury appointments expected of a Jaguar. It is the only compact sedan in its class to offer standard traction-enhancing all-wheel drive.
Under the hood, the X-Type Sport employs a 3.0-liter 24-valve, four-cam V6 engine to achieve 227bhp at 6,800 rpm and 206 lb.-ft. of torque, again at a usefully low 3,000 rpm.
The standard electronic five-speed automatic transmission, controlled by the latest version of Jaguar’s unique J-gate gear selector, gives optimum fuel efficiency as well as punchy acceleration and refined highway cruising.
