Jaguar XE and All-New XF Achieve Five Star Euro NCAP Safety Rating
The #jaguar #xe and all-new #jaguar #xf saloons have been awarded the maximum five star rating in Euro NCAP's 2015 safety tests.
XE and #xf scored highly in every category - Adult Occupant, Child Occupant, Pedestrian and Safety Assist - and are among the most highly-rated models in their respective segments.
As well as outstanding crash protection, the #xe and #xf also benefit from a range of active safety systems including Autonomous Emergency Braking (fitted as standard in Europe), which uses a forward-facing stereo camera to detect vehicles which could pose a threat of collision: the system can give the driver visual and audible warnings and automatically apply the brakes if a collision is deemed imminent.
"The #xe and #xf were engineered without compromise: we placed just as much focus on safety as we did on dynamics, performance, refinement and efficiency, and our stringent in-house standards far exceed the requirements of legislative and consumer tests.
"Everything from the aluminium alloys we developed for the body structures to the state-of-the-art stereo camera at the heart of the Autonomous Emergency Braking system has been painstakingly optimised to deliver world-class levels of safety."
Kevin Stride, Vehicle Line Director, #jaguar #xe, #xf, F-PACE
The #xe and #xf are developed from Jaguar's Lightweight Aluminium Architecture: the inherently light yet stiff and strong body structures deliver exceptional occupant protection, further enhanced by driver and passenger airbags, side airbags and curtain airbags. In the event of an impact with pedestrians, deployable bonnets help to mitigate serious injuries.
Both models offer a full suite of active safety technologies and advanced driver assistance systems* including Dynamic Stability Control, Traction Control, Emergency Brake Assist, Lane Departure Warning, Blind Spot Monitoring, Closing Vehicle Sensing, Reverse Traffic Detection, Traffic Sign Recognition and Adaptive Cruise Control.
Additional features offered in the #xf - and which will be offered in the 2017 Model Year #xe - include Lane Keep Assist, Driver Condition Monitor and Adaptive Speed Limiter.
