2016 Jaguar XJ: Faster Computers Tech Up the Refreshed Flagship Sedan - Car and Driver (blog)

A new smartphone app can monitor the XJ’s fuel level, start the engine, adjust the climate, unlock the doors, and show its exact location. The XJ’s safety electronics gain a stop-and-go function for the adaptive cruise control, additional warnings for the standard blind-spot system that can detect fast-moving vehicles, and rear cross-traffic alert. While the XJ pampered plenty before, heated and cooled front and rear seats are now standard. A new 26-speaker, 1300-watt system will be reserved for the uppermost XJs. Short XJs also get contrast stitching and piping, which before was part of a $4000 option package. Also, to make things more complex, the six-cylinder short XJs all get an “R-Sport” designation but no additional performance upgrades that such a name might suggest. 2016 Jaguar XF: Lighter in Weight and Heavier on Tech Jaguar XJ 3. 0 V-6 Tested: Half the Cylinders, Twice the Reliability.
