About the XJ 3.0 340

The 2012 Jaguar XJ 3.0 340 is a rear-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,871 kg with 335 bhp, which works out at 179 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 179 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.35 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 3,006th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 88th quickest of the 187 Jaguars here. Its 100.2 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Jaguar XJ 3.0 340 0-60 time?
The Jaguar XJ 3.0 340 reaches 60 mph in 5.78 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 3,006th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Jaguar XJ 3.0 340 quarter mile time?
14.26 s at 100.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.33 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.35 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Jaguar XJ 3.0 340 have?
335 bhp and 1,871 kg, which is 179 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, turbocharged, with 8 gears and a quoted top speed of 225 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Jaguar XJ 3.0 340?
Closest here on pace: Acura TL (5.78 s), Infiniti QX50 3.7 V6 334 (5.73 s), Audi A6 4.2 quattro (5.72 s). Each one can be raced against the Jaguar XJ 3.0 340 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Jaguar XJ 3.0 340 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
