2010 Jaguar XJ: Click above to view the video after the jump (http://www.autoblog.com/2009/06/02/video-ian-callum-briefly-talks-about-the-2010-jaguar-xj/)
The top-of-the-line leaping cat was blessed with an aluminum chassis that was well ahead of its time, but the Jaguar XJ's historically derivative design left luxury customers less than impressed - if indeed they recognized it as a new model. Chief Jaguar designer Ian Callum, who hit the ball right out of the park when he designed the award winning XF, now has an opportunity to make things right with the flagship XJ. We've already seen spy photos of the XJ's interior (http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/27/spy-shots-2010-jaguar-xj-interior-look-familiar/) and exterior (http://www.autoblog.com/2009/02/04/spy-shots-2010-jaguar-xj/), and everything so far points to the Jag's flagship model taking plenty of cues from the smaller, less expensive XF; not that that's a bad thing.
The 2010 Jaguar XJ is one of the most eagerly anticipated unveilings this year, but since it won't go public until July 9, you'll have to wait until we can gather some more information. After the jump (http://www.autoblog.com/2009/06/02/video-ian-callum-briefly-talks-about-the-2010-jaguar-xj/) is a short video of Callum discussing his coup de gras; the new XJ. We only caught two very brief, very muddled shots of the next generation of Jaguar's "Gorgeous" design philosophy, but it's still worth a look.
