Yesterday all-new 2010 Jaguar XJ has been presented to public by Jay Leno, American comedian and television host, in Saatchi Gallery, London.
The car is a symbol of new generation Jaguar: aluminum body architecture, panoramic glass roof and a variety of Generation III gasoline and diesel engines. As it has always been Jaguar gives the strongest muscles of the time to its cars: the supercharged V8 motors output as much as 510 horsepower.
The interior varies: Luxury, Premium Luxury and Portfolio are offered to customers by the manufacturer. These three are accompanies with Supercharged and Supersport trim. The XJ is stuffed with electronics: while passengers enjoy DVD or TV entertainment on an 8-inch touch-screen, the driver can use satellite navigation. If this is not enough there are plenty of choices on a 12.3-inch high-definition Virtual Instruments and best-of-a-kind Bowers & Wilkins 1,200-watt sound system.
The cheapest 2010 Jaguar has 3.0-liter V6 diesel engine and standard wheelbase. It is priced for $85,850. The customers will not be able to receive XJ before the beginning of 2010, but the orders are already accepted on the Jaguar official website.
Daimler AG has announced that is sold 5.34% of the stake in Tata Motors. The German company has raised more than $400 million for the shares it did not want to hold any more.
BYD is the Chinese battery and EV specialist which has recently decided to form a joint venture with the German Daimler AG. Although the companies are going to work together on many projects, Chinese media has announced that BYD is not planning to share its core technology on lithium-ion batteries and EV systems with the partner.
In the last weeks almost every American has heard and discussed the problem of Toyota vehicles that have to be recalled because of “unintended acceleration”. The Japanese manufacturer is suffering losses in sales and reputation of a company that builds safest cars, but there are many questions to be answered about this whole deal.
Many manufacturers are trying to create the best eco-friendly cars, this is why each auto show is full of hybrids, electric cars, bio-fuel and low emission technologies, and things alike. Fiat is preparing a stand at the 2010 Geneva Auto Show with two eco-projects: the Doblo Natural Power van and Twin-Air two-cylinder engine.
General Motors does not have much luck with the brands it was going to sell. From the very beginning the manufacturer did not have much hope for any future of Pontiac and the brand was completely eliminated. Saturn/Opel had several potential buyers, but the deals were not successful as GM thought, so it still belongs to the American company.
