Jaguar to launch new V6 petrol engine

Jaguar is apparently developing an all-new V6 petrol engine that will replace the current Ford-sourced 3.0 litre V6 in the mid-sized XF. The V6 engine will be more fuel efficient than the outgoing unit and will be available worldwide, offering more than 300bhp (296PS/224kW).

The new engine may even be used in the larger XJ, although my decision has been made. Currently, Jaguar only offers a 5.0 litre V8 for the North American market.

Look out for a launch sometime in 2013.
