  • Jaguar have a heritage of performance based cars, the XE S is no exception. With 380PS, an AWD system, 5 seconds or less to 62mph the Jaguar XE S is simply a powerhouse of epic proportions. Is it dailyable? Can you fit a Xylophone inside? See if the Jaguar XE S stands up to the Music Motors test..
    Big thanks to;

    Great review! Loved watching it and you made loads of excellent points.
    I have a 2016 XF S, which has the same engine in a bigger body. More space (especially with my car's split seats) and still has great handling, but not as sharp as the XE's handling. (I have driven several XE models but not the XE S.)
    Mind you, even with mostly ultra-short stop-start town driving, I get an average of 27 mpg on the XF S and I have managed 43 mpg on a leisurely run. So I think your right foot was a bit heavy at the start. Entirely understandable: that acceleration is so addictive!
    It's 450 Nm of torque, not 540 Nm by the way. Still, I totally agree with your comments that the power needs to be cautiously applied in slippery conditions!

    • @TomKentMusic

      Difficult one, both are superb. The Jag has a very driver involving feeling over an S5, but it depends on what you want I guess..?

    You don't buy a 3 litre Supercharged V6 and expect good fuel economy, so WTF are you bleating about MPG every verse end?

    • @R04drunner1
      @R04drunner1 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      To be fair, he balanced the mpg comments with a lot of positives about the driving experience.
      Yes, mpg matters for cost reasons (especially nowadays) so merits a mention but the review made the point you don't buy a 3 litre supercharged for good mpg - the 2 litre diesels are for that.
