Road TestCar reviews - Jaguar - X-Type - 2.1 sedanJaguar modelsThe Car30 Aug 2002 JAGUAR has gone to great lengths not to differentiate the 2.1 from its larger capacity X-Type brethren. There's no sign of any "2.1" badging and the stylish 16-inch alloys, fog lights, chrome window surrounds and rear appliqué can fool many into thinking this is a 2.5 or even 3.0 X-Type. The complicated bonnet pressing creates a highly refined visual statement and the heavily chromed grille treatment, gaping lower airdam, body-coloured mirrors, rub strips and side skirts combine to give the entry X-Type a high-quality stance. Of course, plenty of leather and wood inside back up the impressive exterior package. Did you know?The front-drive X-Type 2.1 employs equal-length and stiffness halfshafts, with geometry calculated to ensure they are perfectly aligned under torque, while special CV joints at the outer end of both halfshafts are designed to reduce frictionAll car reviewsAlfa Romeo Abarth Alpine Alpina Audi Aston Martin BMW Bentley Chevrolet Chery Citroen Chrysler Dodge Cupra Ferrari DS Ford Fiat FPV Foton GWM Great Wall Holden Haval HSV Honda Hyundai Hummer Isuzu Infiniti Jeep Jaguar Lamborghini Kia LDV Land Rover Lotus Lexus Maserati Mahindra McLaren Mazda Mercedes-Benz Mercedes-AMG Mini MG Nissan Mitsubishi Peugeot Opel Proton Porsche Renault Ram Rover Rolls-Royce Skoda Saab SsangYong Smart Suzuki Subaru Toyota Tesla Volvo Volkswagen |
