Jaguar XK gets a minor facelift for 2011

The main changes to the facelifted XK are mostly cosmetic, with the cars sporting new and slimmer 15mm headlamps that incorporate LED signal functions and running lights. There’s also a larger oval grille and new bumper design, while the XKR sports model is distinguished by a black mesh grille.

Additionally, the power vents along the front wings have been changed from a vertical to horizontal design with a mesh insert and are emblazoned with the Jaguar name. At the rear, Jaguar has tweaked the boot lid design with a slimmer chrome finisher that allows for the insertion of the Jaguar ‘leaper’ badge, and added LED lights to the tail lamps.

The XK is now also available with a series of new alloy wheels in sizes ranging from 18 to 20 inches, as well as five new body colours. The interior features new trim finishes that include ebony soft-feel paint for the switches, gloss black finish to the centre console and phosphor blue halo illumination and ambient lighting and optional sculpted leather sports seats.
