The Jaguar XE (codename X760) is a compact executive car manufactured and marketed by Jaguar Cars and launched at the October 2014 Paris Auto Show, with production having begun in April 2015.
Available in rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive configurations and designed by Ian Callum, the XE is noted for its aluminum suspension componentry as well as its bonded and riveted aluminium monocoque structure — the first in its segment.
The vehicle was announced, but not displayed, at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show. It had its world première on 8 September 2014 in London. Sales were expected to begin globally in 2015, followed by the United States in 2016. Production formally commenced on 13 April 2015 at Jaguar Land Rover's Solihull plant.
