Jaguar XE lifts Scots Executive title 30 | 11 | 2015
THE JAGUAR XE was crowned ‘Best Executive’ in the Scottish Car of the Year awards. Alisdair Suttie, President of the Association of Scottish Motoring Writers, said: “With its fine lines penned by Scotsman Ian Callum, the Jaguar XE is as good looking as executive saloons come. It has abilities to match its looks, with first rate ride, refinement, driving dynamics and efficiency.”

The Jaguar XE took the Scottish Car of the Year award for ‘Best Design and Innovation’ in 2014.
“Even though we launched the XE into one of the most competitive segments in the car industry, we were quietly confident we had a winner on our hands," Jaguar design director Ian Callum, who collected the award, said.
"It looks exactly the way a Jaguar sports saloon should: stylish, sporty and fast even when it’s motionless. I’m honoured that the Association of Scottish Motoring Writers has recognised it as best in its class.”
