The Jaguar XE now features the latest connected technologies, with the state-of-the-art Pivi Pro dual-sim infotainment system ensuring that the XE “is always connected”. 
“The intuitive new interface makes it easier for drivers to view information and perform frequently used functions on the move,” Alfardan Premier Motors Co, the official retailer of Jaguar Land Rover vehicles in Qatar, said in a press statement.
Focused detailed changes to the interior add further luxurious touches, including an updated seat design, while the new split-rim steering wheel design with metal gear shift paddles deliver a more engaging look and feel, the statement notes.
The new XE is available with the latest 250PS and 300PS petrol engines. 
All XE models are available with Jaguar’s eight-speed automatic transmission and rear- or all-wheel drive. The full powertrain range is as follows: petrol - 250PS 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo, eight-speed automatic, RWD/AWD; and 300PS 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo, eight-speed automatic, AWD.
Colin Kirkpatrick, chief product engineer at Jaguar, said: “The updated Jaguar XE features a selection of enhancements, which make it an even better choice for buyers. The cutting-edge technologies, such as our new Pivi Pro infotainment system and latest Cabin Air Ionisation technologies, provide greater connectivity, convenience and well-being for all for occupants.”
Petrol customers can choose between the 250PS and 300PS versions of the Ingenium 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine, available for the 2020 model year, which produce 365Nm and 400Nm of torque, respectively. Both feature the latest engine technologies, including a twin scroll turbocharger and Continuous Variable Valve Lift, for a strong combination of refined performance and efficiency. 
The 250PS petrol engine delivers fuel economy of up to 35.6mpg (7.9 l/100km), from CO2 emissions of 179g/km and 0-60mph in 6.4 seconds (0-100kph in 6.7 seconds).
The powerful 300PS engine – exclusively mated to Jaguar’s intelligent all-wheel drive system -  is able to propel the XE from 0-60mph in 5.6 seconds (0-100kph in 5.9 seconds).
The XE features Jaguar’s latest Pivi Pro infotainment system, accessed through the seamlessly integrated 10-inch central touchscreen, while the 5.5-inch lower touchscreen, also powered by the new Pivi technology, combines two multi-functional LED rotary controllers for intuitive operation of key vehicle functions.
To help drivers access vital information quickly, the 12.3-inch HD Interactive Driver Display gets enhanced graphics and a configurable layout, which can show full screen navigation mapping with turn-by-turn instructions, digital dials, media, contact list or infotainment details. 
Working in conjunction with the latest Head-up Display technology, XE gives drivers all the information they need without distraction.
The intuitive new infotainment system features Apple CarPlay as standard and allows customers to connect two phones simultaneously via Bluetooth. Android Auto and Baidu CarLife are also available as standard depending on market applicability.
To enable instantaneous start-up, Pivi Pro has a dedicated power source, so is ready to use as soon as customers get behind the wheel. 
This is all underpinned by Jaguar’s next-generation Electronic Vehicle Architecture, dubbed EVA 2.0, which supports further new technologies to ensure the future-ready vehicle is always connected and up-to-date. 
A collection of new convenience technologies includes Software-Over-The-Air (Sota) capability, which ensures the XE is always using the latest software. Keeping the vehicle updated in this way means that owners don’t have to visit retailers in order to receive the latest software. 
Pivi Pro connectivity is provided by embedded dual-SIM capability, with two LTE modems enabling the system to carry out multiple functions at the same time, such as streaming media and downloading Sota updates, without compromising performance. 
For enhanced convenience, the second-generation wearable Activity Key can be used to lock, unlock and start the vehicle without the need for the conventional key fob.
XE’s luxurious interior retains soft-touch and authentic materials throughout. Everything, from the instrument panel topper and console sides to the door armrest and lower cabin, is wrapped in tactile materials for improved comfort.
A new split-rim steering wheel design further emphasises the attention to detail within the cabin. Elsewhere throughout the cabin, details include an embossed Jaguar Leaper on the headrests and a new quilt design is available for the seating.
Enhanced Cabin Air Ionisation improves interior air quality through Nanoe technology, which removes allergens and unpleasant odours. The system now also features PM2.5 filtration, which captures ultra-fine particles – including PM2.5 particulates – to improve occupant health and well-being. The customer activates the system simply by pressing the ‘Purify’ button.
The exterior, extensively updated when the new XE was introduced last year, features the same wide grille and bumper design, delivering a planted appearance. 
All XE models are available with the enhanced Black Exterior Pack, which delivers a stealthier appearance with bespoke elements finished in Gloss Black.
