For the first time on the Jaguar XE, the next‑generation 2.0‑litre four‑cylinder Ingenium diesel is available with the latest Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV) technology for enhanced efficiency.
Inside, Jaguar’s state‑of‑the‑art Pivi Pro dual‑sim infotainment system ensures the XE is always connected. The intuitive new interface makes it easier for drivers to view information and perform frequently used functions on the move.
Focused detailed changes to the interior add further luxurious touches, including an updated seat design, while the new split‑rim steering wheel design with metal gear shift paddles deliver a more engaging look and feel.
Advanced, efficient engines
The new XE is available with the next generation Ingenium 2.0‑litre, four‑cylinder, turbocharged 204PS diesel engine, along with the latest 250PS and 300PS petrol engines.
All XE models are available with Jaguar’s eight‑speed automatic transmission and rear‑ or all‑wheel drive. The full powertrain range is:
Diesel
• 204PS MHEV 2.0‑litre four‑cylinder turbo, eight‑speed automatic, RWD / AWD
Petrol
• 250PS 2.0‑litre four‑cylinder turbo, eight‑speed automatic, RWD / AWD
• 300PS 2.0‑litre four‑cylinder turbo, eight‑speed automatic, AWD
The next generation 2.0‑litre four‑cylinder 204PS Ingenium diesel engine features Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV) technology for the first time. The advanced new MHEV system uses a Belt‑integrated Starter Generator (BiSG) situated in the engine bay to harvest energy usually lost when slowing and braking, which is then stored in a 48V lithium‑ion battery located beneath the rear loadspace. It is able to redeploy the stored energy to assist the engine when accelerating away while also delivering a more refined and responsive stop/start system.
The new engine powers the XE from 0‑60mph in 6.9 seconds (0‑100km/h in 7.3 seconds) and is capable of up to 58.5mpg (4.8l/100km)* with CO2 emissions as low as 127g/km* on the WLTP test cycle.
A selection of advanced engine strategies provides added refinement and performance, including variable vane geometry turbocharger technology. At low engine speeds the turbocharger vanes rotate to narrow the opening between them, increasing exhaust gas velocity and boosting pressure, which provides rapid torque response and enhanced acceleration. At high engine speeds, the vanes open, ensuring maximum exhaust gas flow to deliver peak power while maintaining optimum efficiency.
The engine now features steel pistons, with the higher strength material allowing for a more compact, lower friction design as well as increased capability to withstand higher peak pressures. Their stronger construction enables more intricate and thorough integration of cooling channels for improved thermal management. At the same time, the thermal expansion rate is closer to that of the iron cylinder liners for improved clearance control, both enhancing cooling and reducing friction for better efficiency.
The new 2,500 bar piezo common‑rail injection system delivers even finer control of fuel delivered into the cylinders. This reduces emissions and improves efficiency. Together with the latest variable geometry turbochargers, this ensures that the Ingenium diesel delivers the ideal balance of performance, refinement and fuel economy.
The updated Jaguar XE features a selection of enhancements which make it an even better choice for buyers. The new MHEV diesel powertrain brings an electrified engine option to XE for the first time and delivers improved efficiency combined with refined performance. Meanwhile, cutting‑edge technologies, such as our new Pivi Pro infotainment system and latest Cabin Air Ionisation technologies, provide greater connectivity, convenience and wellbeing for all for occupants.

Petrol customers can choose between the 250PS or a 300PS version of the Ingenium
2.0‑litre four‑cylinder petrol engine, available at 2020 model year, which produce 365Nm and 400Nm of torque respectively. Both feature the latest engine technologies including a twin scroll turbocharger and Continuous Variable Valve Lift (CVVL), for a strong combination of refined performance and efficiency.
The 250PS petrol engine delivers fuel economy of up to 35.6mpg (7.9 l/100km)*, from CO2 emissions of 179g/km* and 0‑60mph in 6.4 seconds (0‑100km/h in 6.7 seconds).The powerful 300PS engine – exclusively mated to Jaguar’s intelligent all‑wheel drive system ‑ is able to propel the XE from 0‑60mph in 5.6 seconds (0‑100km/h in 5.9 seconds).
Latest connected technologies
The XE features Jaguar’s latest Pivi Pro infotainment system, accessed through the seamlessly integrated 10‑inch central touchscreen, while the 5.5‑inch lower touchscreen, also powered by the new Pivi technology, combines two multi‑functional LED rotary controllers for intuitive operation of key vehicle functions.
To help drivers access vital information quickly, the 12.3‑inch HD Interactive Driver Display gets enhanced graphics and a configurable layout which can show full screen navigation mapping with turn‑by‑turn instructions, digital dials, media, contact list or infotainment details. Working in conjunction with the latest Head‑up Display technology, XE gives drivers all the information they need without distraction.
The intuitive new infotainment system features Apple CarPlay® as standard and allows customers to connect two phones simultaneously via Bluetooth. Android Auto™ and Baidu CarLife are also available as standard depending on market applicability.
To enable instantaneous start‑up, Pivi Pro has a dedicated power source, so is ready to use as soon as customers get behind the wheel.
This is all underpinned by Jaguar’s next‑generation Electronic Vehicle Architecture, dubbed EVA 2.0, which supports further new technologies to ensure the future‑ready vehicle is always connected and up to date.
A collection of new convenience technologies includes Software‑Over‑The‑Air (SOTA)** capability, which ensures the XE is always using the latest software. Keeping the vehicle updated in this way means that owners don’t have to visit retailers in order to receive the latest software.
Pivi Pro connectivity is provided by embedded dual‑sim capability, with two LTE modems enabling the system to carry out multiple functions at the same time, such as streaming media and downloading SOTA updates, without compromising performance. This level of connectivity also ensures minimal interruptions caused by coverage blackspots as it roams across network providers for the strongest signal.
For enhanced convenience, the second‑generation wearable Activity Key can be used to lock, unlock and start the vehicle without the need for the conventional key fob. The rechargeable device incorporates a watch and has a battery life of seven days between charges.
The integrated 15W wireless device charger now features signal booster technology (market dependent). The system uses an external antenna to improve the smartphone’s signal when being used inside the car.
The new Guardian Mode (UK only) also uses a remotely programmable timer to provide added security and peace of mind when using the Secure app. It allows customers to identify times when the vehicle will be inactive, for example through the night, and receive alerts to their smartphone if it is used during this window – giving immediate warning of any unauthorised movements.
Pivi Pro is fitted as standard to SE and HSE models and is optional on S models. Standard on the S model is Pivi infotainment which supports navigation functionality via the driver’s smartphone using Apple Carplay®. Pivi also features Android Auto™ as standard.
