The Jaguar X350, produced from 2003 to 2010, represents a significant shift in the British luxury carmaker's history. This third-generation XJ, codenamed X350, marked a departure from the traditional, retro-inspired design of its predecessors, embracing a more modern and aerodynamic aesthetic. The X350 was built on a new aluminum-intensive platform, offering a lightweight and rigid structure that improved both performance and handling. Under the hood, the X350 featured a range of powerful V8 engines, including the 4.2L naturally aspirated and the supercharged 4.2L, offering thrilling performance and a signature Jaguar growl. The X350 also introduced innovative technologies, such as the JaguarDrive system with its J-gate automatic transmission, and advanced electronics for enhanced driver convenience and safety.
The X350's interior was reimagined with a more driver-focused layout, emphasizing luxury and refinement. High-quality materials, such as leather and wood, were used throughout, while features like heated and ventilated seats, a premium sound system, and a comprehensive navigation system offered passengers a truly opulent experience. Despite its modern design and advanced features, the X350 retained the classic Jaguar elegance and sophistication, attracting a discerning clientele who appreciated both performance and refinement. The X350's design and engineering laid the foundation for the future of Jaguar sedans, influencing the development of the subsequent X351 generation and establishing a new benchmark for luxury and performance in the segment.
