What's New in the 2021 Jaguar XK?
The XK loses its ultra-high-performance XKR-S GT variant, while its equipment roster has been reshuffled to add value. New standard features include adaptive headlights, HD radio and metal pedals. There's also an XKR-based, limited-edition XK Final Fifty model with special black paint and trim details along with extensive standard luxuries.
Which XK is the Best?
The XKR seems to occupy the sweet spot in the XK lineup, offering supercharged power that's too alluring to resist. We just couldn't see spending another $35,000 or so to get an XKR-S, however, given that it uses essentially the same engine with a bit more oomph. Find a Jaguar XK for sale
How Much Does a 2021 Jaguar XK Cost?
The 2015 Jaguar XK is a 2+2 (a 2-seater with a tiny 2-passenger back seat) offered in three trim levels: base, XKR and XKR-S. All are available as either a coupe or a fabric-roofed convertible.
Standard features on the base XK ($85,425) include 20-inch alloy wheels, front and rear parking sensors, adaptive xenon headlights with LED accents, keyless entry/start, wood interior trim, a power-adjustable steering wheel, heated and cooled 10-way power front seats with memory settings, leather upholstery, Bluetooth, metal pedals, a rearview camera, a hard-drive-based navigation system with a 7-in touchscreen and a 525-watt Bowers & Wilkins audio system with a USB port, HD radio and satellite radio.
The XKR ($98,425) steps up to a supercharged engine and a limited-slip differential plus such niceties as electronically adjustable adaptive dampers, performance instrumentation, softer leather upholstery and 16-way front seats.
Options on the XKR include the Dynamic Pack (adding special side sills, a rear diffuser and a larger rear wing) and the Performance Pack (adding an active sport exhaust, sport seats and a suede-wrapped steering wheel).
The XKR-S ($132,925) boasts the top-level supercharged engine plus quad exhaust tips, a lowered sport-tuned suspension (optional on XKR via the Dynamic Pack) and unique exterior and interior trim.
All convertible models cost $6,000 more than their coupe counterparts and feature a fabric roof that can be ordered in numerous colors to either match or contrast with the body to your liking. When it's not needed, the top disappears into the body in 18 seconds, and it can be operated at speeds of up to 15 miles per hour.
Trunk capacity is 11.7 cu ft. in the XK coupe and 11.1 cu ft. in the convertible, though the latter figure drops to about 7 cu ft. with the soft-top folded down.
