Out of the many exceptional vehicle models Jaguar has created over the years, none can boast the longevity and luxury of the XJ sedan. It’s a lineage Jaguar’s current Director of Design Ian Callum knows extremely well, starting with the launch of the original XJ in September 1968, whose perfect lines bowled him over at the tender age of 14. “Of all the Jaguar vehicles that I’ve lived through and watched materialize, the XJ6 Series 1 has been my favorite,” he recalls somewhat wistfully. “It was at a significant point in my life where I could see things in a way I had never seen before… proportion, stance and all that good stuff we go on about endlessly now. That car had it, and had it completely.” The XS was mechanically ahead of its time too, with advanced suspension for significantly improved ride refinement and smooth but powerful engines all the qualities that became synonymous with Jaguar sedans. So much so, the esteemed CAR magazine crowned it Car of the Year for 1968. In the ensuing 50 years Jaguar’s designers and engineers have focused on a steady evolution of that template, never following fashion, but always looking to enhance and improve on the established and justified reputation of the XJ as one of the finest ways to travel on the planet.
