Jaguar has won in the Luxury Car category in this year's What Car? Green Awards with its XJ 3.0 Diesel V6 Luxury model with the judges saying it is the best green luxury car money can buy.

The verdict of the What Car? judges was: "In a class dominated by understated design, the Jaguar XJ’s styling takes your breath away. It’s powerful yet athletic, imposing yet sleek. No other luxury car gets as much attention for the way it looks. You’ll enjoy driving the XJ an awful lot more than most of its competition, too. The Jaguar XJ is stunning, in every sense of the word."

The all-new XJ’s beauty is much more than skin-deep. The XJ benefits from the most advanced, powerful and efficient Jaguar powertrains ever and is constructed using Jaguar’s aerospace-inspired aluminium body technology, which makes the XJ lighter than its rivals by at least 150kg. These technologies significantly improve performance, handling and economy, while delivering increased strength, refinement and safety.

What Car? editor-in-chief Steve Fowler said: "British designed and built, the Jaguar is equipped with an efficient, high-tech diesel engine which in a comparatively light car makes for some spectacular emissions figures: CO2 is just 184g/km, while NOx is an equally impressive 0.142g/km. What Car? considered a range of environmental factors, not just CO2 and other pollutants to choose their winners. The best green cars score highly on other important buying considerations, too – from space and practicality to buying and running costs as well as being great fun to drive and to be in.

The all-new XJ takes a new approach to sustainable motoring, with its lightweight aluminium body structure and advanced powertrains. Jaguar has developed its approach to sustainability by focusing on the ‘lifecycle’ of a vehicle; a more stringent approach to sustainability than standalone measures like fuel consumption or CO2 emissions.

Jaguar’s aluminium architecture is a significant contributor to the green credentials of the new XJ. It uses around 50 percent recycled material in the body, and plans are in place to increase that figure to 75 percent. This alone creates a saving of three tonnes of CO2 per vehicle, compared to a bodyshell made from new aluminium. Equipped with the 3.0-litre AJ-V6D turbodiesel, the XJ delivers an impressive combined economy figure of 40.1mpg and CO2emissions of 184g/km. The new XJ is priced from £53,900.
