Despite being a flagship model since 2010, the Jaguar XJ nevertheless looks fantastic because to its innovative, forward-thinking design. Its look, cabin atmosphere, and refinement are completely different from those of the vintage Jaguars. However, it still has a coupe-like design and is distinctly a Jaguar, setting it apart from the majority of other conventional luxury saloons.
The Audi A8, Mercedes-Benz S-Class, and BMW 7 Series are the Jaguar XJ's fiercest competitors. XJ buyers, however, are probably looking at the Lexus LS, Porsche Panamera, and even the Tesla Model S because it's a surprising choice in this German-dominated market.
Although luxury saloons are rarely inexpensive to operate, the 3.0-litre diesel XJ at least has decent economy, averaging 49.6 mpg on the normal wheelbase and 48 mpg on the long-wheelbase, as well as moderate auto tax rates.
Jaguar XJ Fuel Consumption
Although the 3.0-litre V6 petrol engine may have lower operating expenses than the 5.0-litre V8, it must work harder initially, so those numbers may not be as simple to reach.
The operating costs of the Jaguar XJR575 will be somewhat high. Oliver Reed would be ashamed of the 5.0-litre supercharged V8 engine that powers it. The official stated average is 25.5 mpg, however if you press the loud pedal, the numbers will drop to the low teens. This implies a 250-mile tank range and a high cost to fill up a depleted tank.
The aluminium body of the XJ contributes to weight reduction, which in turn affects CO2 emissions. Because of this, the well-liked 3.0 D only produces 149g/km when using smaller 19-inch wheels and 155g/km when using 20-inch wheels.
Jaguar Fuel Consumption
As you might anticipate, the petrol engines are far less efficient. The top 5.0-litre XJR575 produces 264 g/km, which is normal for a V8 engine with over 500 horsepower.
Both the XF and XE have a solid reputation for dependability, and Jaguar has made significant advancements in this area recently. However, a few software bugs have been discovered because this version of XJ uses more sophisticated electrical systems.
The fuel consumption of the Jaguar XJ is shown below in both MPG (Miles Per Gallon) and km/L (Kilometers Per Litre). Both of these figures show you how far that particular Jaguar XJ variant can travel for every gallon (4.55 litres) and every litre (1000ml) of fuel. The higher the MPG or km/L value, the more economical the car is and the cheaper it will be to run. As well as providing the combined figures, we also give you the fuel consumption you can expect from a Jaguar XJ in urban / city driving conditions as well as what can be expected on the open highway / motorway.

The 'real fuel consumption' shows you the amount of fuel your Jaguar XJ is consuming to travel a fixed distance. This is normally shown as L/100km. This figure shows you the amount of fuel consumed in litres for every 100kms travelled. This is the most commonly used figure for showing the fuel consumption of a vehicle. The formula to calculate it is:
(Litres of fuel used X 100) / Kilometers travelled = L/km.
