Jaguar XKR-S (550 PS) specs

2012 Jaguar XKR-S Coupe.

Jaguar had a hard time selling V6 and V8 powered cars, who’d want an electric Jaguar in 2 years time? An electrician or a plumber?

it got criticized for being too expensive when it first released, but now i think its a bargain especially compared to its rivals 😂

Without a doubt one of, if not the sexiest Jags of all time. That supercharger whine is beautiful

I put Toyo r888rs all 4 corners and a drop in tune/pulley, 11.9 1/4 mile. Full preasure, no burnout, TC on sport mode.

That 1/4-mile time and trap speed combo is a joke. A BMW M6 both from the E63 and F13 generations are faster.

for 2011 its a cool car but aston martins are cooler

Great lap times and British engineering. Sexy car

Correction:

Sorry, but the performance of the Jag XKR-S does not compare with the 5.2 and R8 997 911 turbo! Maybe if compare with the r8 4.2 and a 997 Carrera S.

Fifth Gear are using this car for their "Celebrity around Nordschleife" segment.

@DeDe: seeing the Maserati MC Stradale beat the XKR-S quite badly on a mickey mouse lap it would be cool if they did a lap with that car too... Quite a bit less poer but better handling.. should favour the Jag then but i'm curious. Apparently the Gran turismo handls really well.

@Despite the same name they are different. 1kW=1.34HP=1.3596PS.

PS is HP.
Pferden Starke means Horse Power in german.

power is 550PS not hp

I read when it was launched in the top gear site it had 552 horses

Yep my mistake..... Updated

It's 1.23.3 not 1.23.8

Jeremy Clarkson is gonna be happy :)
