It’s been said before, but Jaguar doesn’t seem to know how to make a bad-looking car these days. Take the current XK, for example. It’s been around since 2006 and has largely gone unchanged aside from a slight nip/tuck for the 2012 model year, but it’s arguably one of the most beautiful coupes in the luxury GT segment.
To further enhance the XK’s good looks, Jaguar has launched the new Artisan Edition that makes its debut at the Geneva Motor Show. Available in both naturally aspirated and XKR trims (in both coupe and convertible body styles, no less), the Artisan package incorporates some special paint colors including the Celestial Black you see here, as well as unique 20-inch wheels. Inside, there are new performance seats with “scraffito” leather, not to mention a host of interior upgrades like a 525-watt Bowers & Wilkins stereo, stainless steel pedals and new veneer trim pieces.
It’s sexy and sophisticated, and sadly, it’s only available in the UK (for now, at least).
