(Mahwah, NJ) February 14, 2017 –Jaguar has announced a range of enhancements to the Jaguar F-PACE performance SUV, XF and XE sports sedans for the 2018 model year. Included in the updates are a host of new convenience features, trim packages and powertrain enhancements across all three models that deliver more choice and personalization than ever before.
Designed, engineered and built wholly in-house by Jaguar Land Rover, the 247HP 2.0-liter four-cylinder Ingenium gas engine, denoted with 25t badging, uses the company’s low friction all-aluminum-intensive design which provides excellent thermal properties and lightweight construction, improving efficiency and enhancing vehicle dynamics over traditional steel designs.
Jaguar Land Rover’s family of Ingenium engines have the technologies that deliver exceptional performance, efficiency and refinement while meeting the most stringent global emissions regulations.
In a first for Jaguar, the exhaust manifold on the new 2.0-liter gas Ingenium four-cylinder is also integrated with the cylinder head casting. Passing coolant through the manifold considerably reduces warm-up times, when engines are at their least efficient, improving fuel consumption and reducing emissions(3).
A revised paint palette for all three vehicles aligns the color names with those offered throughout the Jaguar Land Rover family, simplifying the customer ordering experience.
Jaguar takes pride in the driver assistance technologies available in its vehicles and F-PACE, XF and XE feature a pair of new technologies available for the 2018 model year(1).
On XE and XF models, available Blind Spot Assist (BSA) enhances the Jaguar Land Rover Blind Spot Monitor system by using the collision warning system in tandem with the Electric Power Steering System. BSA is designed to detect a vehicle in or approaching the blind spot when changing lanes and to apply a gentle steering force to keep the vehicle in its lane(1).
Jaguar XE, XF and F-PACE owners in the U.K. can now use the touchscreen of their car to pay for fuel at Shell service stations with a new in-car cashless payment system developed in conjunction with Shell and Jaguar Land Rover.
Once the driver has filled up, an electronic receipt will be displayed on the touchscreen, so customers can leave the pump confident of having paid. A receipt will also be sent directly from the pump to the driver’s email address so it can be added to accounting or expenses software.
First launched in September of 2015, every new Jaguar comes standard with Jaguar EliteCare, a Best-in-Class ownership package that includes a 5 years or 60,000 miles new vehicle limited warranty, complimentary scheduled maintenance, as well as a suite of connectivity services and roadside assistance(6).
Since its Guinness World Record breaking reveal at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show where F-PACE completed the world’s largest loop the loop, the performance SUV has become Jaguar’s fastest selling vehicle; helping make Jaguar the fastest growing brand in America in 2016.
The focus of the 2018 model year enhancements is on broadening Jaguar Land Rover’s range of models with a powertrain to suite every need. The advanced 180HP 2.0-liter four-cylinder diesel Ingenium engine and pair of supercharged 3.0-liter gas V-6s are now joined by a second Ingenium powertrain a 247HP 2.0-liter gas four-cylinder engine.
In the U.S., the new 247HP 2.0-liter gas four-cylinder Ingenium engine in the Jaguar F-PACE comes standard with an automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The new gas Ingenium engine has a single twin-scroll turbo that produces 269 ft.-lb. of torque from only 1,200rpm. The smooth and responsive gas engine powers the F-PACE from 0-60mph in 6.4 seconds(4).
Adaptive Dynamics with Configurable Dynamics(1) is available on vehicles fitted with Adaptive Suspension and the InControl Touch Pro infotainment system(5). Building on the customizability of Jaguar Configurable Dynamics, Adaptive Dynamics allows drivers to also adjust the ride comfort and handling responses to suit the driving conditions or personal preference.
In addition, when Touch Pro infotainment is specified customers benefit from Dynamic-i, which adds a stopwatch, g-meter readout and accelerator and braking graphics to the central touchscreen display(5), allowing the driver and front passenger to monitor every aspect of the vehicle’s performance.
Like the F-PACE, the XF receives a new limited edition Portfolio derivative that is equipped with the 340hp V-6 engine. The limited volume model stands as the most elegant and sophisticated version of the XF to date. Comfort gets a boost in the shape of enhanced driver and front passenger seats with 20-way luxury which incorporates power headrests with side wing supports seating finished in a Sienna Tan Windsor leather, with the instrument panel finished in the same material. Available only in Yulong White, with a tan interior the XF Portfolio limited edition offers a high level of technology as standard. Based off of the Prestige models, the XF Portfolio includes the same features as the Prestige, plus a long list of standard features, including, but not limited to InControl Touch Pro infotainment and navigation5,7 with 825-Watt Meridian surround sound and 10-inch touchscreen with 12.3-inch full digital instrument panel; head-up display; Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB); Adaptive LED headlamps; four-zone climate control and soft door close.
Blind Spot Assist, Forward Traffic Detection and Forward Vehicle Guidance have also been added to the suite of available driver’s assistance technologies for the 2018 model year Jaguar XF.
The award-winning Jaguar XE benefits from a host of enhancements. Like the XF and F-PACE, the powertrain options for the XE expand to include the addition of a new 247HP gas four-cylinder which is available in both RWD and AWD configurations.
Adaptive Dynamics, which provides personalization of the engine, steering, gearbox and suspension settings, is currently available on automatic 180HP diesel and 340HP gas Prestige and R-Sport models. It will be available on models powered by the new 247HP 2.0-liter Ingenium gas engine and standard on the S model. When InControl Touch Pro infotainment is fitted in conjunction with Adaptive Dynamics, customers also benefit from Dynamic-i, which adds a stopwatch, g-meter readout, as well as accelerator and braking graphics to the central touchscreen display(5,7).
Also new for this year, the availability of a 12.3-inch TFT virtual instrument cluster for owners who have specified Jaguar InControl Touch Pro infotainment. With four distinct visual themes to choose from, the large display makes it possible to view full-screen navigation mapping, reducing the stress of driving in unfamiliar surroundings(5).
Jaguar has enhanced its comprehensive suite of available driver’s assistance technologies with the addition of Blind Spot Assist, Forward Vehicle Guidance and Forward Traffic Detection technologies for the 2018 model year as well.

Jaguar"s all-new 2016 XF sedan features available InControl Touch Pro infotainment, which incorporates a quad-core Intel processor, a 12.1-inch touchscreen and a 60-gigabyte solid-state drive. The new system also upgrades the analog gauge cluster to a sharp TFT display and can work in conjunction with a laser head-up display.
In the beginning, the only option available was the 3.0 liter supercharged V6 engine. It is the same engine featured in the Jaguar F-Type coupe and makes 340 PS @6,500 rpm and 450 Nm of torque @4,500 rpm in the F-Pace. The new base model introduced in 2018 had the Ingenium 2.0 liter turbo four-cylinder engine. The output was 250 PS @5,500 rpm and 365 Nm torque figure @1,500 to 4,500 rpm. Currently, for the 30t model, power is raised to 300 PS (+50 PS) and 400 Nm (+35 Nm) at the same rpm range from the same engine.
The ZF gearbox is highly responsive, smooth, and efficient by delivering rapid shifting for effortless acceleration and overtaking. Gears are chosen with a rotary dial, similarly to Land Rover’s, and can be shifted with Jaguar Sequential Shift via the steering wheel paddles.
F-Pace is built on Jaguar’s Lightweight Aluminum Architecture which is an 80% aluminum-intensive body structure strong enough to offer excellent protection to all occupants. It helps to reduce weight, boosts efficiency, and enhances handling and braking. F-Pace is among the lightest cars in its class to achieve a weight distribution with near perfect 50:50 balance.
Jaguar took the Double Wishbone from the F-Type for the front and the Integral Link from the XE for the rear. The highest trim, R Sport Hi-Spec is equipped with Adaptive Dynamics, an electronically controlled damper and together with the Adaptive Surface Response (AdSR), the F-Pace can modify dampening and respond with maximize grip on all type of surfaces.
Although not meant to focus on its off-road abilities, that did not stop Jaguar from including several features such as the All-Surface Progress Control (ASPC) that is a low speed, off-road cruise control that helps maintain optimum handling and the Low-Friction Launch (LFL, a Jaguar first) for getting a grip on slippery surfaces. The F-Pace also has Adaptive Surface Response (AdSR) adjusts engine and brake settings after recognizing different surfaces to exploit available grip.
The Jaguar XF, when introduced, opened up the gates into Jaguar’s world of cars. Now with the XE holding that mantle, the XF has grown bigger and you can say, better. The new 2016 Jaguar XF, though on the same platform, is longer and lighter than its predecessor and comes with new equipment.
For the first time in any Jaguar, the headlights feature adaptive full-LED technology. They also feature the brand’s signature J-Blade LED daytime running lights, as seen in the outgoing model. As for the size, the new XF is 4,954mm long and at 2,960mm, the wheelbase is 51mm longer than before. Though 7mm shorter and 3mm lower than the original XF, Jaguar says its new model is more spacious than the previous. On the outside, the near vertical fascia, shorter front overhang, longer wheelbase and the aggressive looking front and rear taillights reflect Jaguar’s new approach towards designing their cars.
Like the original XF, the highlight of the interior remains the start-up sequence bringing the car to life as the rotary gear selector rises up from the centre console and the air vents rotates into position. The cabin also features a 12.3-inch full-TFT instrument cluster and a 10.2-inch touchscreen, four-zone climate control, 10-colour ambient lighting and much more to add to the luxurious appeal.
The longer wheelbase in the new XF means that occupants in the second row sit further away from the rear wheels. This has allowed Jaguar to reduce seat height slightly, contributing to the increased headroom, which is now up to 27mm more than before while using Jaguar’s aluminium-intensive architecture to enable weight savings of up to 190kg. The rear bench also features a more practical 40:20:40 split while the boot lid now benefits from an optional power close function.
The 2016 Jaguar XF is one of the first leaping cats in the country to get the new series of the 2.0-litre Ingenium engines. The 1999cc turbocharged four cylinder diesel engine develops 177bhp of power and 430Nm of torque while the 2.0-litre turbo-petrol develops 237bhp of power and 340Nm of torque. Both the engines are mated to an eight-speed automatic gearbox that sends power to the rear wheels. The safety aspect is covered by the six airbags standard across the variants with a comprehensive stability program that includes ABS, EBD, traction control, skid control along with hill-hold function and other driving aids.
Jaguar would certainly introduce the more powerful variants of the XF like the XF S and the XF R in future with bigger and powerful engines. The XF competes with the BMW 5 Series, Mercedes E-Class, the Audi A6 and the upcoming Volvo S90.
The infotainment system is powered by the Pivi Pro interface with support for wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The analog dials with central TFT display keeps the retro element alive. With the Meridian 3D-Surround sound system, audiophiles are bound to be more than happy. The Velar HST also features electronic air suspension with adaptive dynamics for optimum comfort and control under every driving condition.
The 2023 Velar HST is powered by a 3.0-liter inline-six MHEV engine producing 395 HP and 405 lb-ft of torque. The same engine does its duty in the Jaguar F-Pace. Land Rover claims a 0-60 MPH time of just 5.2 seconds and a top speed of 155 MPH. The 2023 Velar HST has many advanced ADAS features including adaptive cruise control with steering assist. Land Rover also offers the Park Assist package as standard, including a 3D surround camera and helps with automatically controlled parking maneuvers.
Inside, the Evoque looks way more luxurious than last years model, in fact, it looks more like the Velar which was revealed in 2017. Almost every inch of this head turning car is drenched with leather, including the seats, the dashboard and even the inside of the doors. You can choose from two 10-inch infotainment systems: Touch Pro or Touch Pro Duo. Most impressive is Land Rover’sTouch Pro Duo, which brilliantly integrates two 10-inch touchscreens that sit on two separate levels of the dash - one higher and the other lower. The high touchscreen isn’t too dissimilar from other traditional touchscreens, but the lower one is what really catches buyers eyes. The higher touch screen operates the cars navigation and media, while the lower one operates things like the cars climate control and driver settings. Both touch screens are extremely quick and intuitive, meaning driver experience is at its best whilst on the road. There is also a 12-inch digital instrument cluster behind the steering wheel, which displays the digital speedometer and tachometer, plus other driving information.
Another piece of fancy innovative tech is the Clear Sight Ground View, it uses cameras in the front grille and on the door mirrors to show a “through the bonnet” view of the ground below on the infotainment touchscreens. The touchscreen will also display see-through wheels so that you can clearly see where the rear wheels are heading and whether or not you’re hitting the curb. For those who like to keep their expensive alloy wheels in pristine condition, you’ll find this feature very handy.

It sits on a new platform called Premium Transverse Architecture (PTA), which has been designed to house various electrified powertrains across both Jaguar and Range Rover with transverse engines. Land Rover says the body is 13% stiffer than the current model, meaning improved refinement and handling. Since the Evoque is more popular amongst motorists travelling in the city, it gets the same 4.37 centimetre length as the last version (150mm shorter than theAudi Q3) but the 2019 version has a 20mm longer wheelbase to create more legroom in the back. Critiques judged the Evoque as being too small from the inside with limited leg room hence why these alterations to the wheelbase have been made. Additionally, the rear doors are bigger, which makes it easier for people to enter, and there is anextra 10% boot space than the previous model - 591 litres to be more specific.

A liquid-crystal display (LCD) is a flat-panel display or other electronically modulated optical device that uses the light-modulating properties of liquid crystals combined with polarizers. Liquid crystals do not emit light directly,backlight or reflector to produce images in color or monochrome.seven-segment displays, as in a digital clock, are all good examples of devices with these displays. They use the same basic technology, except that arbitrary images are made from a matrix of small pixels, while other displays have larger elements. LCDs can either be normally on (positive) or off (negative), depending on the polarizer arrangement. For example, a character positive LCD with a backlight will have black lettering on a background that is the color of the backlight, and a character negative LCD will have a black background with the letters being of the same color as the backlight. Optical filters are added to white on blue LCDs to give them their characteristic appearance.
LCDs are used in a wide range of applications, including LCD televisions, computer monitors, instrument panels, aircraft cockpit displays, and indoor and outdoor signage. Small LCD screens are common in LCD projectors and portable consumer devices such as digital cameras, watches, digital clocks, calculators, and mobile telephones, including smartphones. LCD screens are also used on consumer electronics products such as DVD players, video game devices and clocks. LCD screens hav

In this guide we’re going to show you how you can use the 1.8 TFT display with the Arduino. You’ll learn how to wire the display, write text, draw shapes and display images on the screen.
The 1.8 TFT is a colorful display with 128 x 160 color pixels. The display can load images from an SD card – it has an SD card slot at the back. The following figure shows the screen front and back view.
This module uses SPI communication – see the wiring below . To control the display we’ll use the TFT library, which is already included with Arduino IDE 1.0.5 and later.
The TFT display communicates with the Arduino via SPI communication, so you need to include the SPI library on your code. We also use the TFT library to write and draw on the display.
In which “Hello, World!” is the text you want to display and the (x, y) coordinate is the location where you want to start display text on the screen.
The 1.8 TFT display can load images from the SD card. To read from the SD card you use the SD library, already included in the Arduino IDE software. Follow the next steps to display an image on the display:
Note: some people find issues with this display when trying to read from the SD card. We don’t know why that happens. In fact, we tested a couple of times and it worked well, and then, when we were about to record to show you the final result, the display didn’t recognized the SD card anymore – we’re not sure if it’s a problem with the SD card holder that doesn’t establish a proper connection with the SD card. However, we are sure these instructions work, because we’ve tested them.
In this guide we’ve shown you how to use the 1.8 TFT display with the Arduino: display text, draw shapes and display images. You can easily add a nice visual interface to your projects using this display.
Wind in your hair and the eight-cylinder muttering in your ears. Jaguar F-Type Convertible, the protagonist of our test drive in the P450 version, is part of a dying breed, that of two-seater sports cars with a sunroof but above all with an internal combustion engine. Even more if we talk about the British brand that has announced in the Reimagine plan that it wants to go fully electric in the coming years. So let’s enjoy this little gem while we can its 450hp V8 given that the swan song is near and already announced: in fact, from January 2023 it will be possible to order the special edition 75, an ICE version of the famous British two-seater.
The passenger compartment has been designed to put the driver at the centre, enhancing the 1+1 configuration of the British super sports car. The elegant and dynamic character of the F-Type has been further evolved, thanks to the use of precious and contemporary materials, such as Windsor leather and Noble Chrome satin finish. The interiors are also embellished with luxurious elements the result of Jaguar craftsmanship. Among the most significant details are the monogram stitched on the seats and inside the doors, the Jaguar Leaper present on the headrest and the “Jaguar Est.1935 “ markings present on the center console, seat belt guides and glove compartment. Behind the steering wheel is a 12.3-inch HD TFT display while the infotainment is based on the Touch Pro, improved in functionality and compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The choice of finishes expresses the elegance of the British brand to the fullest even if the choice to give the Jaguar F-Type Convertible a grand touring aspiration rather than a super sports car despite the 450 HP offered by the V8 clashes a bit with the spaces on board: having said that it is a two-seater and the overall dimensions have to be taken into account, with a slightly larger trunk than the 200 liters offered and with some better organized pockets/compartments, the perfection. We conclude with prices. The Jaguar F-Type range starts at 75,000 euros for the P300 RWD in coupe configuration and rises to 82,000 euros if you choose the Convertible instead. For the convertible version in the P450 variant, the protagonist of our test drive, the price list starts at 106,000 euros.
