Business Insurance - Jaguar XJ scoops eco award

Fleet owners looking to add a stylish but economical luxury motor to their stock may find the Jaguar XJ ticks all of the right boxes.

The company's executive flagship has won the Most Surprisingly Economical car honour at the inaugural Honest John Awards after impressing the judges during testing.

It was put through a 692-mile test and managed to exceed the claimed consumption figure of 39.2 mpg while remaining refined and comfortable.

Geoff Cousins, managing director of Jaguar UK, said that he is pleased that the vehicle has scooped the gong and that it is good that the XJ's economical fuel consumption is recognised.

"In the XJ we have successfully created an economical car without compromising the quality, luxury and sports car-like drive that our customers want to enjoy in their Jaguar," he added.

The XJ features a highly sophisticated air suspension system, which works alongside an Adaptive Dynamics package to ensure the car is both comfortable and responsive.
