DRIVING PERFORMANCE
Experience an effortless yet exhilarating ride through XE’s advanced technologies and engineering.
COMFORT AND DYNAMISM
TORQUE VECTORING BY BRAKING
Maximising control across all surfaces, XE continually monitors and balances the distribution of torque to improve both the grip and steering of the vehicle. Assisting with its stability, the system reduces understeer by applying the brake to the inside wheels, forcing greater torque to outer wheels.
LIGHTWEIGHT ALUMINIUM ARCHITECTURE
A lightweight design reduces both fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, without compromising on durability and reliability. The weight saving technology assists with achieving a maximum speed of up to 250km/h.
DRIVING TECHNOLOGY
-
ALL WHEEL DRIVE
XE’s All Wheel Drive system advances the performance and control of the vehicle. Featuring Intelligent Driveline Dynamics (IDD) software, IDD analyses current road conditions and distributes power between wheels to help achieve dynamic handling on any surface.
-
ADAPTIVE SURFACE RESPONSE
Our terrain response technology, Adaptive Surface Response (AdSR)1, works with All Wheel Drive to ensure a smooth drive in adverse conditions. AdSR recognises differences between surfaces and adapts XE’s accelerator pedal response allowing for a stable drive across different surfaces such as grass, gravel or snow.
