2022 Jaguar XE price and specs

The Jaguar XE family has lost a member for the 2022 model year.

With the mid-range R-Dynamic SE axed, the XE line-up now consists only of the R-Dynamic Black and R-Dynamic HSE.

The R-Dynamic Black is now $3975 pricier for 2022, while the R-Dynamic HSE is up $3479.

The range now opens at $68,679 before on-road costs for the R-Dynamic Black, and extends to $75,870 before on-road costs for the R-Dynamic HSE.

The price rises correspond with a few specification changes to the XE.

Metallic paint is now standard across the entire range. It was previously included in the R-Dynamic Black but cost $1400 on the R-Dynamic HSE.

Other spec changes include a standard sliding panoramic roof and privacy glass for the R-Dynamic Black, and standard matrix LED headlights for the R-Dynamic HSE.

There are, however, some features that have been removed from the XE range, including the surround-view camera and the 5.5-inch Touch Pro Duo touchscreen.

Both of these features are now optional extras costing $1000 and $600, respectively.

Jaguar has indicated a number of features and option packages are unavailable due to the global semiconductor shortage.

“We are communicating directly with any affected customers and our retailers where there is any change of specification,” said a Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) spokesperson.

JLR says you should consult your local Jaguar dealer to confirm what is and isn’t available.

Features that may temporarily be missing include the surround-view camera, ClearSight digital rearview mirror, and the 12-inch digital instrument cluster.

In the case the digital instrument cluster isn’t available, it’ll be replaced with analogue dials with a central seven-inch TFT display.

There’s also the Technology Pack, that includes the ClearSight digital rear-view mirror, 5.5-inch Touch Pro Duo touchscreen, wireless phone charger and head-up display, which may not be available.
