Yes, this is the updated XJ saloon that’s expected to land in Jaguar showrooms across the world next year.

It’s the big cat’s mid-cycle facelift, but don’t feel bad if you’re having a hard time telling the insignificant cosmetic revisions over the current model – we did too, as even though they’re there, it does take one helluva trained eye to spot them.

So, can you tell us what’s new about the 2015 (or 2016MY) XJ’s exterior from our latest and most…revealing scoop shots?

Before you do that, let us tell you that, besides some trivial interior improvements, we’ve heard that Jaguar could update the XJ with new radar-based detection tech for a series of fresh semi-autonomous driving systems.
