MILD-HYBRID (MHEV) CARS EXPLAINED

Jaguar performance with enhanced fuel economy.

Jaguar mild hybrid (MHEV) technology intelligently recovers energy that would normally be lost when slowing down, and redeploys it to boost power to your engine for increased efficiency.

  • HOW DO MILD HYBRID CARS WORK?

    Our mild hybrid cars cleverly combine Jaguar’s efficient Ingenium petrol or diesel engine with a powerful 48v battery. Energy that would normally be lost when slowing down is collected and stored to be internally reused as power.

  • WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A MILD HYBRID CAR?

    Delivering lower CO₂ emissions and enhanced fuel economy, the refined electrified powertrain of an MHEV makes it ideal for driving in congested, stop-start city traffic. In terms of performance, the increased power to the engine generates a spirited, linear acceleration from a standing start.

WE RECOMMEND: PETROL

PETROL

Our petrol vehicles are an ideal choice for drivers who primarily take shorter journeys and tend to drive fewer miles on the motorway. All our new petrol vehicles utilise the latest technology, including GPF (Gasoline Particulate Filters) to help reduce emissions.

  • Well suited to dynamic or high-performance driving
  • Typically, more suited to shorter urban journeys than diesels
  • EU6 compliant with cutting-edge technology to reduce emissions
  • Enhanced fuel efficiency with a choice of Jaguar mild hybrid petrol engines

  • More tailpipe CO₂ emissions than diesel engines

YOU COULD ALSO CONSIDER

WE RECOMMEND: DIESEL

DIESEL

All our vehicles fitted with Jaguar's new Diesel engines are a great fit for drivers predominantly taking longer journeys on motorways with some city travel. All our diesel vehicles are fitted with Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs) and use Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) to meet stringent regulations and lower tailpipe emissions.

  • Typically, more fuel efficient than petrol engines
  • Often feature more low-end torque, ideal for motorways, towing and off-road driving
  • EU6 compliant for emissions with CO₂ level approximately 15% below petrol2
  • Diesel engines provide up to 25% more fuel efficiency than petrol engines2

  • New diesel won't always be at its efficient best if you only take short trips or mostly drive in cities
