Overall Performance
The Jaguar XKR has a stock top speed of 308 km/h (191 mph) in Class A. The acceleration is very good but it has a weak nitrous output. It has a very good handling and has good grip but it may show hints of oversteer at higher top speeds. Otherwise the XKR is able to do high speed cornering and do quick direction changes without losing traction.

For Pursuit Outrun and Team Escape, the Jaguar XKR can perform well. Because of its grip, it can easily dodge rhinos and go through narrow gaps in roadblocks. However, it is not very heavy which can be a problem when colliding with rhinos as the XKR could take the impact hard. But due to its quick acceleration it can quickly regain its speed back very fast.

On March 27th, 2013, the car received a re-tune which improved the performance of the Jaguar XKR.
