Jaguar's extraordinary sports saloon
The remarkable all-aluminium Jaguar XJ Supersport is a luxurious limousine that drives like a proper sports car.
The XJ Supersport is Jaguar's "brand new, all-aluminium, top-of-the-range saloon in its sportiest trim the short wheelbase chassis with the 503bhp supercharged petrol V8", says John Barker in Evo. And it's an "extraordinary" car to drive.
It looks like a limo and is luxurious inside, yet it "drives like a much smaller, lighter saloon". There are other big saloons that "feel sporty", but "few feel as wholly sorted and multi-faceted as the Jaguar.
It has the Maserati Quattroporte's engagement and balance, the Porsche Panamera's pace, the Audi A8's integrity and carries it all off with its own style (its interior is especially handsome). It's a remark-able car."
