Jaguar's latest redesigned XJ is likely to get prestige car hire enthusiasts excited, one reviewer has suggested.

The marque has created a luxurious four-door saloon that combines good looks with performance, Michael Harley has noted in Autoblog.

The flagship model has undergone an overhaul in terms of styling, compared to the previous model, incorporating a sleek and elegant design with traditional Jaguar features such as the overly large front grille.

Mr Harley notes that the vehicle benefits from being constructed of an aluminium chassis, helping to keep the total weight to a minimum and maximise performance and efficiency.

He commented: "This completely redesigned sedan at last delivers the nobleness of spirit and prestige of the Jaguar marque that had gone missing in many of its predecessors.

"Jaguar has once again introduced a traditionally British full-size four-door saloon that exudes eye-catching styling, exquisite luxury and traditional wealth."

The XJ is available in four different models ranging from the entry level Luxury to the highly charged and powerful Supersport.
