Jaguar was originally from the UK. Its models include: Jaguar XFL, Jaguar XF, Jaguar XJ, Jaguar F-Type, Jaguar F-Pace, etc. Taking the Jaguar XFL as an example, it belongs to the mid-to-large-sized car category, with body dimensions of: length 5093 mm, width 1880 mm, height 1456 mm, a wheelbase of 3100 mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 74 liters. The Jaguar XFL is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 147 kW, a maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, a maximum torque of 320 Nm, and is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission.
The story of the Jaguar brand is quite fascinating. It was originally born in the UK, founded by William Lyons in 1922. I remember reading that they started with motorcycle sidecars before transitioning to automobiles. Those pre-war streamlined sports cars, like the SS100, were quintessential British masterpieces. Nowadays, it's owned by India's Tata Group, but the design center remains in Coventry. I specifically visited their classic car museum during my UK trip. Although the British automotive industry has declined, Jaguar's British charm remains unique, especially with that retro green paint paired with leather interiors.
