2016 Jaguar XE Sedan

Jaguar’s long-awaited compact sports sedan. It will be called the XE. A legitimate small sports sedan has been missing from Jaguar’s portfolio for too long, and the brand desperately needs something to compete with segment icons like the BMW 3-series lineup, Audi’s A4, and Mercedes’ C-class, as well as the latest Lexus IS. Introducing such a model should help Jaguar to continue its sales growth, as well as give buyers a smaller, less-expensive entry point to the brand. Jaguar’s sedan roster is currently limited to only the XF and XJ models—they’re both gorgeous and great to drive, but also expensive. This car should also finally banish any lingering memory of the Ford Mondeo–based X-type from a few years back.
