NEW JAGUAR XJR575 HOSTS 186MPH INTERVIEW - Amanda Stretton, TV presenter and race driver, with Wayne Burgess, Production Studio Director and SVO Projects, Jaguar
Jaguar has launched the new XJR575 with a high‑speed interview starring designer Wayne Burgess being questioned by TV presenter and race driver Amanda Stretton as the performance saloon accelerates from 0‑186mph.
Lasting just 44 seconds – the time it takes Jaguar’s fastest XJ saloon to reach its top speed – Burgess gave a quick‑fire insight into the development of the potent new model.
The high velocity interview was almost over before it began, but the unrelenting acceleration of the new XJ flagship did not stop Burgess, Production Studio Director and SVO Projects Director at Jaguar, from providing a unique take on the performance saloon.
WATCH THE FASTEST INTERVIEW
I have done plenty of short interviews in my time, but nothing quite like this! It might have been a bit of fun but doesn’t it just demonstrate perfectly the extreme performance of the new XJR575. I could barely finish answering those quick‑fire questions before we hit 186mph and then it was all over! Can we go again?

Customers will be able to choose between two bespoke exterior colour finishes created by Special Vehicle Operations – Velocity Blue and Satin Corris Grey – while additional tailor‑made exterior details include a rear spoiler, side sills, front bumper and lower air intakes featuring gloss black surrounds.
Updated exterior badging and twin bonnet louvres mark the vehicle out from the rest of the range, as do the red brake callipers that accompany the 20‑inch Farallon gloss‑black wheels. Bespoke embossed tread plates alongside intaglio and diamond‑quilted seating add a final flourish to the XJR575’s interior.

This is a performance vehicle, but that doesn’t mean we have had to cut any corners when it comes to comfort or design. Jaguar is the standard bearer for interior refinement and the XJR575 is no different. It can go very quickly, but it does so with the serene comfort customers expect from a Jaguar saloon. That makes this a very special car indeed.
