The Jaguar X100, produced from 1996 to 2006, represented a significant shift for the iconic British marque. This generation of the Jaguar XJ, internally designated as the X100, marked the introduction of a new platform and a departure from the traditional, rear-wheel-drive layout. The X100 adopted a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive configuration, utilizing a unibody chassis. This design change aimed to enhance the car's passenger space, structural rigidity, and crash safety. The X100 was available in both standard wheelbase and long-wheelbase versions, catering to various needs and preferences. Under the hood, it featured a range of powerful inline-six and V8 engines, including the legendary AJ-V8, known for its smooth performance and distinctive exhaust note. While the X100 retained Jaguar’s characteristic elegance and luxury, it incorporated a number of advancements. Notably, it was the first XJ to feature a double wishbone front suspension, contributing to its refined ride and handling. The car also boasted an array of advanced electronic features, such as traction control, anti-lock brakes, and an optional navigation system. The X100's interior was designed with both comfort and sophistication in mind, featuring premium leather upholstery, wood trim, and advanced climate control. Its spacious cabin offered generous legroom and headroom for both front and rear passengers. Despite its modern innovations, the X100 maintained a strong connection to Jaguar’s heritage, proudly displaying the iconic grille and distinctive lines that defined the brand.
