Safety features and the innovative technology on the Jaguar XE are made to inspire confidence and assurance that you and your passengers will arrive safely at your destination.
1. Displays
The Jaguar XE offers plenty of displays to keep you in the know while on the go.
Head-Up Display
Head-Up Display projects a full-colour virtual image of useful information – from speed and cruise control settings, to directions and speed limits – directly onto the windscreen at eye-level, allowing you to keep your eyes fixed on the road ahead while being mindful of how your XE is performing.
Interactive Driver Display
Along with using your dashboard to keep everything organized and concise, the Interactive Driver Display uses high-definition, crystal-clear graphics to show 3D maps, vehicle settings, contacts and media options. You simply select what you want to see on the screen at any time, and control everything from the multi-function steering wheel.
Touch Pro Duo
Touch Pro Duo is an innovative twin-screen system, providing a 10″ upper Touchscreen and 5.5″ lower Touchscreen. The benefit of having a lower screen is to allow dual-tasking, for example, navigation mapping on the upper screen and climate controls and access to other features – such as entertainment – on the lower screen.
2. Driver Assist Systems
A Driver Condition Monitor identifies your fatigue levels based on your driving behaviour and the length and time of your journey. If it thinks you need a break, it’ll tell you.
There’s also a Rear Camera for improved visibility when reversing, and a Front and Rear Parking Aid to help manoeuvre you in and out of tight spaces.
Lane Keep Assist detects when the vehicle is unintentionally drifting out of the lane and applies a corrective torque to the steering wheel, encouraging you to guide your XE back into your lane.
Blind Spot Assist is always on hand to support you with lane-change manoeuvres by helping you move away from vehicles that you may not have seen in your mirror.
Adaptive Cruise Control will help to keep you at a safe distance from the car in front and will bring you to a gentle stop if traffic comes to a sudden standstill. It also works with the High-speed Emergency Braking system which will apply the brakes if it detects a possible collision.
3. Airbags and ISOFIX
To help secure child seats into your XE and reduce the chances of your young passengers being hurt in an accident, ISOFIX points can be found on the two rear seats. For extra peace of mind, there are also six airbags at strategic points around the car.
4. Other Safety Technologies
Dynamic Stability Control detects the first signs of oversteer or understeer, helping to maintain a stable drive. It’ll also keep your XE safely on course, even in low-grip conditions.
Engine drag torque control helps prevent wheel slip in adverse weather conditions by providing a gentle push to the wheels where needed.
When towing, Trailer Stability Assist works to detect and act against trailer sway, lowering engine power and gently applying the brakes individually on each side of the vehicle.
