The XJ lineup continues into 2007 with five models. There are no changes to the exterior design, engines, or power, but there is a longer list of standard and available features. Bluetooth hands-free phone operation is standard across the lineup for 2007, as is leather seating with contrasting piping and other interior niceties on the base XJ8, the long-wheelbase (LWB) L model, and the supercharged XJR. Heated, 16-way adjustable front seats and heated rear seats are standard on the XJ8 and XJ8 L versions, and Front Park Control, Jaguar’s radar-assisted parking system, has been added to the Vanden Plas model.

The XJ sedans play in the same upscale neighborhood with entries from BMW and Mercedes-Benz. The base engine is a 4.2-liter naturally aspirated V-8 that makes 300 hp and 310 lb.-ft. of torque. This engine is found in the XJ8, XJ8 L, and Vanden Plas models and enables the XJ to reach 60 mph in just over 6 seconds, according to Jaguar.
