First 2013 Jaguar XE Roadster

We for you the first spy shots available of the upcoming 2013 Jaguar XE - it's Jaguar's much-rumoured small two-seater roadster.

Underneath the skin lies a modified rear-wheel drive aluminium chassis from the XK, with a much shorter wheelbase. The XE will be offered as both a coupe and cabriolet model, and it's a cabrio we've spotted here today.


Details surrounding engines are limited, the XE is expected to be fitted with a V6 engine in at least two configurations, one naturally-aspirated and one supercharged, hooked up to the company's six-speed automatic gearbox. Output levels will be competitive with Cayman and 911 models.

Aimed at stealing sales from Porsche, the XE will carry a price tag somewhere between the Boxster and 911. According to some sources, the XE is likely to debut at the Geneva Motor Show and sales will start in 2013 with a price tag between £40,000 and £50,000.
