Jaguar Ranks Among Best in Quality in JD Power Study


Merritt Island Jaguar, a leading Jaguar dealership in Merritt Island, Florida, is excited to announce that Jaguar has ranked second in J.D. Power and Associates 2012 Initial Quality StudySM results. Jaguar has also proved to be one of the most improved brands in the market as per the survey. In fact, this is the third consecutive year where Jaguar has shown continuous improvement according to the survey conducted by J.D Power and Associates IQS. Additionally, Jaguar had also clinched the second position in J.D Power and Associates 2011 Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) StudySM.

David Pryor, US Jaguar Brand Vice President, mentioned, “ For Jaguar to be the most improved brand in Initial Quality, and tie for 2nd highest among nameplates in the industry, is a major accomplishment for everyone in this organization. Customers speak through these studies and it’s imperative that all manufacturers listen.” He further added, “Jaguar customers typically buy on the emotional power of the cars’ seductive designs, but today also get the rational benefits of what we believe are best-in-class service and quality. This is especially important for the brand as we prepare for the launch of the new Jaguar F-TYPE two seat sports car.”

For 2012 Model year, Jaguar plans to release three new models: The Jaguar XJ luxury sedan which will be powered by either 385-hp V8, the 470-hp supercharged 5.0 liter V8 or the 510-hp supercharged 5.0 liter V8.

The next in the line-up is the XK Coupe and Convertible sports car powered by either the 385-hp V8, or for the XKR, the 510-hp supercharged 5.0 liter V8 powertrains. The 2012 Jaguar XKR-S coupe and convertible have also been added by Jaguar this year which is supposed to be its highest performance model ever.
