Model history

With the introduction of the Jaguar XK8 in 1996, Jaguar entered the modern era of sports coupes. The XK8 was the first Jaguar to feature the new 4.0-liter V8 engine and replaced the classic XJS series. Its elegant design with flowing lines, paired with British understatement and state-of-the-art technology, made it one of the most stylish grand tourers of its time. The XK8 was offered as both a coupe and a convertible and today stands as a representative of British automotive artistry in an exciting field of tension between comfort and performance.
