2012 Jaguar XK Series

Jaguar XK series in Coupe and Convertible form made its world premiere alongside the refreshed XF and XFR sedans at this week’s 2011 New York International Auto Show. Jaguar added five new colors to the range and introduced new alloy wheel designs ranging in size from 18 to 20 inches.

The changes on the XK are more subtle than on the XF and are purely cosmetic. The most significant changes are found at the front of the XK that gains new and slimmer by 15mm headlamps that incorporate LED signal functions and running lights. There’s also a larger oval grille and new bumper design, while the XKR is distinguished by a black mesh grille.

For 2012MY, the Jaguar XK’s power vents along the front wings have been altered from a vertical to horizontal design with a mesh insert and are emblazoned with the Jaguar name. At the rear, the British company tweaked the boot lid design with a slimmer chrome finisher that allows the placement of the Jaguar ‘leaper’ badge, and added LED technology to the tail lamps.
