The Jaguar XK-Series is a series of grand tourer cars produced by British car manufacturer Jaguar Cars between 1996 and 2014. The cars were offered in two body styles, coupé and convertible, and had a variety of engine sizes ranging from 3.2-litre to 5.0-litre engines. The series was designed to rival the likes of Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Porsche. It was critically acclaimed for its sporty handling and styling, and was well-received by both critics and the public. The XK-Series was discontinued in 2014, and replaced with the F-Type.
