Jaguar is all set to go all-electric 2025 onwards and its current petrol-powered models could be the last ones rolling out of the assembly line. And the British carmaker is already doing its bid to make its current model range cleaner. Yes! As we already know that the existing models are being electrified to cut emissions and fuel consumption and after giving the F-Pace a mild-hybrid setup, now even the XE and XF sedans are following suit. Jaguar is offering both the XE and XF in the 300 Sport version in Europe which draws power from a hybrid powertrain.

The 300 Sport variant is powered by a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder, turbo petrol mild-hybrid motor from the Ingenium family belting out 300 PS or 293 bhp and 400 Nm of peak torque. The XE Sport 300 does the 0-100 kmph sprint in just 5.9 seconds while the XF Sport 300 does the same 6.1 seconds, while the top-speed is restricted to 250 kmph in both sedans. Transmission duties are handled by an eight-speed automatic transmission that's coupled with an all-wheel drive system.
Now coming to exterior updates, the Sport 300 version rides on 20-inch alloy wheels and is offered with several solid and metallic body paints, including two high-end colours - Carpathian Grey and Silicon Silver. For the XE's interior, there are Monogram Aluminium veneers, while the XF gets Satin Charcoal Ash. Both sedans also get paddle shifters finished in chrome. Amazon Alexa voice control integration is also standard on both models courtesy the updated Pivi Pro infotainment system.
