2017 Jaguar XJL Portfolio

This 2017 Jaguar XJL Portfolio is a long-wheelbase luxury sedan with presence, performance, and unmistakable Jaguar character. Finished in beautiful Ultimate Black Metallic over a Jet Black interior with wood grain accents, this XJL delivers the elegant, low-slung design language that made the XJ stand apart from the traditional full-size luxury sedan crowd. With only 60,781 miles since new, this example offers a compelling opportunity to own one of Jaguar’s most distinctive modern flagship sedans.

For 2017, the Jaguar XJ carried forward the major facelift introduced for 2016, with the new model year remaining largely unchanged aside from a few new paint colors. That means the 2017 XJL Portfolio benefits from the refreshed styling, updated lighting details, and revised luxury presentation of the facelifted XJ while retaining the dramatic proportions and long-wheelbase comfort that define the XJL. The Portfolio trim serves as the long-wheelbase luxury-focused model, adding five inches of rear legroom compared with the standard-wheelbase XJ and giving rear passengers the spacious, executive-style accommodations expected from a flagship sedan.

Power comes from Jaguar’s 3.0L supercharged V6, rated at 340 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque, paired with a smooth eight-speed automatic transmission. This engine gives the XJL confident, refined power delivery, with the supercharger providing immediate response and strong passing power without the delayed feel often associated with turbocharged engines. The XJL is capable of accelerating from 0–60 mph in approximately 5.4 seconds, an impressive figure for a large luxury sedan weighing roughly 4,400 pounds. Dynamic Mode further sharpens the driving personality, allowing the XJL to feel more alert and responsive when desired.

What makes the XJL so special is the way it blends full-size luxury with a surprisingly athletic road feel. Its confident handling, composed body control, responsive steering characteristics, and refined drivability give the XJL a personality that feels smaller and more agile than its size would suggest. The adaptive, self-leveling suspension helps deliver a composed ride, while the XJ’s quiet cabin, dual-pane side glass, and substantial noise isolation create the refined environment expected from a Jaguar flagship.

Inside, the Jet Black cabin is both elegant and driver-focused, with wood grain accents adding a traditional luxury touch. This XJL Portfolio is equipped with power-adjustable heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, rear passenger climate controls, heated rear seats, a rear windshield sunshade, and side window sun shades, giving both front and rear occupants a premium travel experience. The power sunroof brings openness to the cabin, while the soft, wraparound dashboard design gives the driver a cockpit-like feel without taking away from the spacious long-wheelbase layout.

Technology and convenience are well represented with an infotainment screen featuring AM/FM radio, Bluetooth connectivity, navigation, and a reverse camera. The Meridian sound system adds the kind of rich, premium audio experience expected in a flagship Jaguar. Additional luxury touches include a power trunk and the kind of rear-seat space that makes the XJL feel truly special compared with ordinary luxury sedans.

The 2017 Jaguar XJL Portfolio stands out because it is not simply another large luxury car. It offers supercharged performance, long-wheelbase comfort, distinctive British design, rich cabin appointments, and a driving character that remains engaging without sacrificing refinement. Finished in Ultimate Black Metallic with only 60,781 miles, this XJL Portfolio is an elegant, powerful, and deeply desirable flagship sedan for the buyer who wants something far more memorable than the usual luxury-car choices.
