Jaguar XK, A Lightweight Luxury Sports Car
New Jaguar XK supercar is a stunning looking car, bound to turn heads where to go. It has the beauty and smoothness of a number of old Jaguars of the year 1960. But if it works, the true story of the new XK, and what distinguishes it from the competition is what is hidden behind the paint.
No, this time not some sensational machine, such as the XK120, but the fact that the body is made of aluminum – like the new Jaguar XJ.
The idea of using aluminum – Honda started the trend 15 years ago with the NSX, immediately followed by the Audi A8 – is to lose weight. Honda lose much weight with the NSX sports car – the body is 40 percent lighter than when they are made of steel.
