On the outside of the car we see two new body colors that were developed by Special Vehicle Operations division, modified bumpers, new side sills, bigger air intakes and special wheels. 

“This is a performance vehicle, but that doesn’t mean we have had to cut any corners when it comes to comfort or design. Jaguar is the standard bearer for interior refinement and the XJR575 is no different. It can go very quickly, but it does so with the serene comfort customers expect from a Jaguar saloon. That makes this a very special car indeed”, said Ian Callum, director of Design, Jaguar.
