The overview
Introduced for 2002, the X-Type served as Jaguar's entry-level model but was never a great car. AWD and numerous safety features were standard but the cheap switchgear betrayed this car's origins as a mid-level Ford sedan. The X-Type's up-level 3.0-liter V6 is a lively performer, and the optional five-speed automatic shifts smoothly. (A five-speed manual was standard.) We found handling balanced at the limits but not all that agile in normal driving. The ride was comfortable and braking performance was excellent. On the downside, the cabin was a bit tight, road noise was pronounced, and fit and finish were unimpressive. A wagon version joined the 2005 lineup. 2008 was the final year for the X-Type.
