Manufactured by the British automobile makers, Jaguar, the XK series that comprises both the XK8 as well as the XKR happens to be classified as a grand tourer (GT), and is available in the body styles of a double door coupe as well as a convertible. Introduced in 1996, the XKR was actually created with the intention of filling up the vacant spot created by the discontinuation of the XJS. The production still continues, which speaks volumes about the popularity and demand of the car.
The latest version of the Jaguar XKR was unveiled at the Autosport International Show at Birmingham, and it really stands for excellence especially in the technical and performance side. The car is a real beauty too with its sleek lines and remarkable features. Considered as the most potent member of the Jaguar family, the new XKR has a power that has been enhanced by the introduction of a 4.2 litre V8 supercharged engine that indeed gives a very impressive performance in combination with the superior calibration six-speed automatic transmission, resulting in an output of 420 hp and 413 lb torque.
