As promised, Jaguar is introducing an yet powerful 300PS Ingenium petrol engine to its XE and XF saloons and F-Pace SUV models.
Now while some may not be too pleased at the prospect of new fast Jaguar saloons without six- or eight-cylinder engines, these XEs and XFs do arrive at an interesting time.
The Jaguar version of this Ingenium engine has 10bhp extra and each auto that is equipped with it can cover the 0-62mph sprint in six seconds or less.
The Jaguar XE, XF and F-Pace can now be ordered with Jaguar's new 2.0 litre 300 PS Ingenium petrol engine as the petrol Ingenium roll-out continues.

The new engine is being manufactured at the £500m Engine Manufacturing Centre in Wolverhampton and it will join a number of new additions to the range, including 200PS (XE and XF only) and 250PS versions of the 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine. This allows drivers to personalise the automatic gearbox, throttle and steering settings to suit their personal preference.
