2012 Jaguar XKR-S
The Jaguar XKR-S is not merely the quickest Jaguar ever build but also the most agile, responsive and driver focused. The pinnacle of the XK range builds on feedback gathered from the supercharged XKR and has been developed to extend the performance parameters of the car. This new harder edged character allows the enthusiastic driver to explore the outer limits of the car’s dynamics without losing the refinement and usability for which Jaguar is famous. The structural integrity of the lightweight aluminum platform allowed the suspension to be reworked with bespoke components for increased stiffness without a commensurate loss in either refinement or Jaguar’s legendary ride comfort. A reworked aluminium front suspension knuckle and revised rear geometry are allied to stiffer springs and dampers, lightweight forged alloy wheels and recalibrated steering effort to minimize any response delays and produce a more connected and agile driving experience. The performance of the Jaguar XKR-S is reflected in both its interior and exterior styling, which feature exclusive new paint colors that reflect Jaguar’s racing heritage. As with competition Jaguars of the past, the exterior of the XKR-S adheres to the principle of form following function. In addition to the styling changes and in order for it to achieve 200 mph, the XKR-S was the subject of extensive Computational Fluid Dynamics development work. The resulting changes reduced front and rear lift by more than a quarter and …

2012 Jaguar XKR-S (2011 Geneva Auto Show)
Introduction Making its debut at the Geneva Motor Show 2011, the XKR-S is the most extreme expression yet of Jaguar’s passion for building beautiful, fast cars. For the first time with a series production car, Jaguar gains entry to the exclusive ’300kph club’ thanks to the effortless performance of the supercharged 5.0-litre AJ-V8 engine. A revised fuelling map means the direct-injection powerplant now produces 550PS and 680Nm of torque. Extensive recalibration has ensured that power delivery and performance are seamless, contributing to a 0-60mph time of 4.2 seconds. The Performance active exhaust encourages and rewards the enthusiastic driver with dramatic, motorsport-inspired aural feedback. The XKR-S is not merely the quickest Jaguar ever but also the most agile, responsive and driver-focused.

Practical people mover
The Mazda5 is the mini-est minivan. In fact, some would go so far as to call it a wagon that happens to have sliding rear doors. Most reviewers, however, call it an excellent alternative to larger vans and compact crossover SUVs. Car and Driver says, “Here’s a perfect family car besmirched only by its minivan-like looks. Even if mom fears being seen as a mom, she and the kids will love the twin sliding doors, six seats, and ample cargo space on a light and thrifty car platform with joyous handling. The 2.3-liter four is also easy on gas.” With the 5, Mazda offers buyers a practical people mover that has a touch of the company’s famous zoom-zoom. Reviewers like the way it goes down the road, but caution that if you’re looking for a plush interior with lots of passenger room, you’ll need to consider a full-size minivan. But, if you need affordable seating for six and zippy maneuverability, the Mazda5 should do nicely.
