Jaguar is making waves (again) among luxury sports car aficiandos. At the upcoming Concours d'Elegance at Pebble Beach, California, the automaker plans to debut its XKR 175 Limite Edition coupe.The XKR 75 unveiled earlier this year sports a revised suspension, aerodynamics, and engine, and was engineered to be more of an ultimate expression of the brand. Modifications to the XKR175 are much less extensive, as the engine and suspension are left unchanged, but the car does get a revised aerodynamic package.
The XKR175 receives a new front air dam, side skirts, rear diffuser, and a larger spoiler -- the same changes available for the optional XKR Speed Pack. All of these changes help make the car more stable at speed by creating more downforce, and top speed rises accordingly from 155 to 174 mph. Powering the XKR175 is the same XKR's supercharged 5.0-liter V-8, which produces 510 horsepower and 461 pound-feet of torque, and is capable of moving the XKR175 to 60 mph in 4.6 seconds.
