TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATION

As the UK’s biggest investor in manufacturing research and development, Jaguar supports thousands of engineers in developing cutting-edge innovations to improve every part of our business.

Our world-class expertise in aluminium technology allows us to build lighter, more efficient and more agile cars like the XE - the first of a new generation of Jaguar cars that use our all new Advanced Aluminium Architecture to create an incredibly strong body shell with high torsional rigidity and near 50:50 weight distribution.

As part of our commitment to constantly improve the efficiency of our cars we have created a range of efficient Ingenium engines, also featured in XE and XF.

For the drivers of tomorrow, we are currently developing prospective technologies that include: predictive gesture and voice control activation; Laser Referencing, which can project warning images onto the road to be seen by the driver and other road users; and semi-autonomous driving systems to eliminate driver error and make roads safer.

In developing manufacturing innovations to save time, expense and resources, we have built one of the world’s most sophisticated Automotive Virtual Reality testing workshops, which has already saved over 1.2 million km of test-driving and 290 tonnes of CO₂ emissions.
