Bosses at Kia have confirmed that the firm will build an eco-friendly version of the Ceeò€™d ò€“ but buyers will have to wait more than a year for the first models to arrive!
The much-anticipated...
The much-anticipated model - identified by the "D" on the bootlid - should achieve at least 35mpg, thanks in part to its lightweight aluminium chassis. Powered by a modified version of the 204bhp 2.7-litre twin-turbo V6 from the S-Type, the XJ D will be no slouch. Fitted with the S"s automatic gearbox and boasting around 435Nm of torque, expect the car to hit 0-60mph in less than eight seconds. Impressive mid-range acceleration and a top speed in excess of 140mph are also on the cards.
To boost the model"s appeal, Jaguar is expected to extend its five-year/50,000-mile free servicing package - an offer which is currently scheduled to come to an end on all other XJ variants later this month. Expect the D to be priced at around í‚á£42,000 when sales start in late September. It will herald some mild styling and trim changes for the whole XJ range.
